Move to the hills and you will have drugs, prostitutes, inbred 6-fingered rednecks, and no beach. But you will have a view.

Where should my 6-fingered friends find their prostitutes - handy to know these things 35 mins to the beach is better than 45 mins to Weston-super-Mud

Hi we are getting excited, just booked a furnished rental in mount martha, till our furniture arrives. then will look round for something more permanet then. My husband is a teacher and has a job at Frankston High. So we need to be roughly in that area.. I am hoping to get a job at frankston hospital. We have two young boys how are getting excited to, so life is a bit stressful at the moment. We found our rental from a job web site if your interested. wwwmoving-to-melbourne.co.uk

If I was going to Frankston High I would cut across from Langwarrin via Lakewood Heatherhill Road very easy 15 mins I suppose.

I actually have been jumping off the Moorooduc Road myself and going past Frankston High to drop my daughter at the Frankston Station as its so chocker in the mornings. I travel from Somerville and it takes me about 20 mins to the Station in peak.
