Re: Townsville laid back. To illustrate this, the soldiers at Lavarak Barracks say Townsville Tux (tuxedo) for the type of clothes to a function. T shirt and shorts.

Great info

Ive been reading the replies to Wade's question. I'm his better (?) half. My choice is definitely sun, a beach nearby and a cafe strip to keep me occupied while Wade is away. Humidity? After Darwin, no probs. Heat? After 47degC days here..well. Mozzies? Darwin Mozzies were like helicopters. I'm definitely a tropics fan and really looking fwd to the Townsville trip. So grateful for your helpful comments.

I think Wade's decision was made
Before he asked

Seriously, good luck with the change and the eventual move. Exciting times ahead!

Well folks, the counting is done and the votes are in.

Just spent last week checking out T/ville in person (s) and came home having had an acceptance on a house offer in Currajong (an old Queenslander)

Now all we need to do is sell our property here in Bully and we will become Banana Benders

I must say that anyone that does the regular jogging up Castle Hill are nuts!! But it is an amazing view.

We also checked out Cairns on the way home, but while a very nice city, it is way to touristy for our likings.

Thanks again for everyones comments.

Currajong is a nice suburb ... not too far from the city.
An old queenslander in Townsville has real character ... n plenty of storage under the house too !!!!! ... Noice choice ... hope it is all everything you wish it to be.
