If you are both going to work in the CBD I would say that the commute might get you down eventually especially if you are balancing childcare at the start and end of each day.

Is it hard to organise accommodation for the first few weeks from the UK or Ireland. Is it rental that you have organised? Or a hotel?

EDIT: Yeah! $3600 is a lot!!!! Is it a palace?

just done my sums... its $3360 to be precise!that seems quite reasonable for Melbourne terms for a short term rental:confused:compared to a 2 bed serviced appartment which is more. this is a 3 bed furnished bungalow 10 min walk from the beach, and the british couple that own it sound lovely (but bloody hell! it is a lot of dosh!!!!)x
