Many good suggestions already. I'd add (depending on preference of course)...Eat Street market near Eagle Farm is great for an evening. Sirromet Winery near Redland Bay for lunch or dinner and occasional live music etc. A walk out to Wellington Point King Island reserve at low tide is enjoyable with lunch in the area. QPAC shows and a river cruise.

Only moved here (south Brisbane...bayside) 6 weeks ago so bear in mind I'm no expert. We had a similar emotional roller coaster as the house sale concluded. After all, we'd spent a long time making it home and it held many memories. It made us worry about the negatives (which we'd consciously researched). To cut it short, we love it here. The people are great and the surroundings are beautiful. If you want a quiet or busy area, there's something for each taste. Ignore comments about being stuck in the 70's....it's definitely not! Seen no spiders or snakes (except in Australia zoo!). Have seen a couple (literally) of cockroaches and a few mosquitoes. Nothing problematic though.

Far from it. I am actively seeking facts on both sides of the debate and trying to filter out the noise.

I was asking for references to weed out actual facts....otherwise it's just more noise.

Is there a version of this with referenced sources to the facts claimed?

Has anyone found a broker willing to take a trailing stop-loss on 23rd June converting GBP to AUD? I haven't, brokers reluctance seems to confirm (as do their comments to me) anticipation of significant volatility if there's a leave vote.

I don't believe this is the case at all. The markets have largely factored in a remain vote, which is why any apparent swing towards a leave vote causes sterling to weaken.

Thanks Loulou. We head out soon and enjoyed your post.

How is that the case? It seems to me that it's worth £16k in the UK ($32k)...import costs will far exceed $4k plus you're left with a less valuable, harder to insure, harder to sell, personal import in Oz. Therefore, purchase in Oz at $36,800 seems the better choice. Am I missing something?
