Don't...I'm already hearing the moaning from the girls "Oh Muuuummm....you said the weather would be better here....what a waste of time moving....." (cue hurling self to the sofa in a hormonal haze of depression!)

haha! Yeah, every time I speak to my brother in Oz he reckons it's been chucking it down for the last three weeks and always just before we arrive too. Then suddenly it's nice....I think he's winding us up.

Re: Wanted Down Under 2010
Has this series of WDU been sponsored by Darwin? The show should be renamed 'Darwin down under' or 'wanted in Darwin'!!! Seems like every other episode is Darwin!!
I have nothing against Darwin and the show has no doubt been fantastic news for anyone moving there (or Auckland for that matter) but think it would have been nice to have had at least 1 Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide rather than Darwin every other day!! Its a shame as it used to be quite good but all I keep hearing is Nikki with the 'that all looks very inviting...'
rant over, think you've guessed I'm not heading to Darwin...

Re: Wanted Down Under 2010
Well I think series 4 has had 5 darwins, series 3 had 2 darwins that I remember and before that I dont remember any! A bit ironic as we were desperate for a darwin one before we arrived here in Darwin - such is life!!

Just seen Sportendurance's WDU, and I agree Louise does look fab, can't believe she's 31 - she only looks 23. (Lucky her)
Nicky Chapman did have a new phrase tho - "Lets hope his moves are as silky as his shirt" LOL.

Re: Wanted Down Under 2010
No NOT a secret 11th Feb i think but dreading it. Trying to think of some new phrases Nicki can use.
Something to aspire to replaced by OOOH Thats very different from the UK.
After F/F
Oh dear, will this throw the whole move in jeopardy REPLACED BY Oh dear, are the family sure they made the right move
This house is slightly (ie 140k) over budget but something for the family to aspire to... replaced by
This house is slightly (ie 140k) under budget and not to everyones taste but typical of the area the family have decided to live, could you make the sacrifice and the move.
4 OUT OF 5 VOTED THE SAME WAY ON THE FINAL VOTE.

Re: Wanted Down Under 2010
Really looking forward to the re-visited, got slightly bored with WDU this year, Darwen & Auckland overkill me thinks
Can't help wondering if the crocs have eaten all the residents of Darwen and now they are trying to fill the place back up.
No offence to anyone on WDU.
Really think the BBC need to invest in a voice over next year, instead of some totally un-interested presenter just using the same 1/2 dozen lines for 20 episodes I know Nadia Sawahla used to get slated on this site but as least she interacted with the families.

Re: Wanted Down Under 2010
NNNNNOOOOOO! How on earth can you take that away from the presenter, what no free trip to stand on a beach that could be Cornwall (maybe it is?) and say repetitive things.........it makes the show!!!!
Now where is my sick bucket
