Where to live or not to live

This whole issue of when and where to move is driving both me and Muz a little bit nuts. Stay? Go? Go Where? and When? Aaaahh!
The only thing we can agree on is that we definitely don't want to stay in Adelaide much longer. And there's really only two options for us in our profession (and also for maintaining our sanity) and that is Melbourne or Sydney. While I prefer Melbourne he prefers Sydney. This presents a bit of a problem.

Let's start with Sydney and my reasons against it:
1. We've lived there already, during a particularly bad and traumatic period in our lives, and thus I have many bad and traumatic memories associated with the city.
2. Although we know some cool people there, everything and everyone is always soooo busy, and driving places is not practical at all, but then public transport means it takes ages to get anywhere.
3. It's expensive.

His reasons for Sydney:
1. The weather and the beaches are rockin.
2. So many interesting people and loads of cool stuff to do.
3. We could live in Marrickville which is a wicked melting pot of a suburb.

My reasons for Melbourne:
1. Interesting people and loads of cool stuff to do.
2. Have friends and also family there.
3. Once you know the streets its pretty easy to get around, and trams rock.
4. We can live in East Brunswick or St Kilda which are groovy suburbs.

His reasons against Melbourne:
1. The weather completely sucks.
2. People there all think Melbourne is the best place in the world.
3. The streets are confusing.

See? My reasons are way more valid (except for the weather thing, but hey we can deal).
But it's all okay cos I have a sneaky Convince Muz that Melbourne is The One kind of plan, hehe. It involves an extended holiday to Melbourne of course, and lots of exploring of the city. Yay!
