So we are moving to Melbourne for a couple of years just to give Brisbane a bit of a break - been here for a while and need a change.

Luckily for me, my job can be done from anywhere in OZ so the move is an easy one as no new job search is required. My only issue is that given we only want to do this for two years, I have no idea what club to join.

We have locked in a house in Richmond and would prefer something relatively close although would love to experience a sand belt course - two problems with that though, massive joining fee and in most cases a waiting list longer than the intended two years of stay.

Does anyone have any recommendations on good courses? would be very much appreciated. Are there any funky membership arrangements that I don't know off that I can jump on?

Thanks in advance gents (and ladies).
