Re: Does anyone watch "Wanted Down Under"?
They are currently doing a 'revisited' series of the pople who were on the programme last year, or before. Todays had a couple who did move out, and are really happy and enjoying themselves, he was getting more money and working only half the hours he had been in the UK.

Yeah I do believe that. I have found here in the UK I am working a ton more hours just to earn half of what I was earning when I was in the US. But I enjoy this work more. We definitely aren't the best in the jobs market for pay. I have found the area I am in (Bournemouth) is one of the lowest paid areas! Just my luck.

But 12 years later and I find all that matters less than the birthdays and weddings and parties and funerals I've missed. I don't suppose I regret coming - not sure about that really - but what I do know is that it was a move I made in total ignorance of what it was going to cost me. That's what these shows never cover.

If you search the Aus forum you'll find threads and posts by some of the families who have appeared in the series and in other similar ones. We've had a lot of people on here in the past who've been on one programme or another. The show is always heavily edited, so what you see is what makes good TV - not necessarily a reflection of reality!
It's hardly The Ascent Of Man is it?

I will refer you to my signature, I'll be playing cricket in pink to help raise money for the care of Breast Cancer patients.
$845 so far, mostly raised by BE members
My actual hat that I will be wearing is far fancier and there is a pic in the second signature link.

Never heard of this before but just checked it out on youtube. Kind of reminds of house hunters international on HGTV

Do they do most of the filming not in summer ? often looks like it.

I watched an episode of one of these programmes and fast-forwarded through most of it.
I used the time saved to trim my pubic hair, I thought it was a decent decision on balance.
