Thanks for all the comments about the house, I have to say I am looking forward to moving, especially because it will be on 35 acres, with dams and ponds too. As much as I still think I am city type at times, I know I am not, and neither do I wish to be. I have no interest in the city lifestyle ( even a Launceston city lifestyle which is quite moderate compared to other places ).
When we went to visit the house we saw an echidna, kangaroo and wombat trundling around, so I feel this bodes well for the cleanliness and country-ness of the area. I will be able to hang out the washing naked, and dance around without fear of any nosey neighbour seeing my lily white butt ! It does need a good clean however, so I will have to get my cleaning head on for a good few hours...it's been empty for a while and needs the love of some great incense and a brand new vaccum therein.
