All we've done since we've been here is rush around looking at houses and stress about work.
We had a nice walk down the river Sunday and it was a breath of fresh air mentally and physically.
People say not to buy straight away but we want to as we need to have somewhere that the boys feel settled.

Where are you staying? Have you been brave enough to venture in the pool?
Great news about the car it sure feels great when you have your own wheels. Have you got your copy of Vic roads yet. There are not many road rule changes but you will need to have a good read of it before the test. It is a good way of checking out Tram laws etc. I remember a few things that I got asked in my test was about laws and P plates, forgot to learn that section .
Enjoy the good weather

Re: We bought our first Aussie car yesterday
Good to hear things are moving in the right direction! When we first moved we found that Sundays were the only day that we couldn't do anything on our 'list', so always used it to chill out, like you said, you really need to!
