Melbourne

18 years ago
We are in the process of moving to Oz from England(thank god! this country has gone right down!) and as a young family just wondered whether anyone has any comments postive or negative? We are pretty much under control with the application. We have friends in Hurstbridge and like the look of the area but wanted to hear from people who live in Melbourne with a family re schools (we have a 2 and 7 year old). Also employment. my husband works for South Eastern Trains as a service/maintenance engineer and although I have all the addresses for Connex and Yarra Trams etc it seems a bit of a "who you know" rather than "what you know" industry in Oz, can anyone confirm this?
Many thanks for any replies.
