So it's back to Brisbane in order to be closer to work. I might even achieve the elusive and perhaps mythical 'work life balance' by reducing my commute to minutes rather than hours each day.
Our house is for sale - perhaps you know someone looking for a little piece of paradise on Tamborine Mountain? - our chosen agent's details will follow in the next few days.
So tell us about the place, I hear you say.....

- Excellent location in the heart of North Tamborine - walk to all the amenities in the 'village' - supermarket, newsagent, bakery, bank, cafes, butcher, Subway, doctors, schools, kindergarten etc. The pool and community gym are virtually across the road. This is a tightly held enclave with very few properties ever available for sale.
