The Amazing Race Australia

[markis10]

Where do i sign , as nothing beats a free holiday !

Amazing Race = Free Holiday ???? Have you seen the show, it reminds me of a poorly planned business trip where you get to see a lot of hotel rooms and strange methods of transport at weird hours, but very little leisure time. I know they have "rest" days but with the excpetion of the holidays given away to stage winners I doubt it would be classed as a holiday, more like a lot of hard work!

I wonder how many contestants go back to the countries for a second time to experience what they missed while they were running around.

Worst. Suggestion. Ever.

samh004 called for tried and tested, not tired and twisted!

On that note, what about KRudd, he should be free soon

I wonder if it will be like the australian survivor where the challenges were actually hard. I'll never forget the flaming arrow light up a stack of timber challenge where the timber obviously wasn't soaked in petrol, judging by how the flame died out following a direct hit, unlike US survivor.

You've lead a very interesting life. And you've got time...

But I still don't agree that the audience would see me as the abusive one who beats their partner.

Have you watched and seen how the old farts usually get on. Generally rather poorly IMHO :!:

IIRC they go pretty well as they have guile and cunning but lack staying power.

But just think of the advantage you could get by renting a helo to get you to the next checkpoint

So Straitman... are you admitting you're an old fart???

I'd go on it with you... just have to put you through bootcamp before going!!!

See what happens when you let your grown up daughters onto the forum :!:

They think they are immune from paybacks. I'll just have to work harder to spend the inheritance :!:

You know I was only quoting your words!!!

As for the Race... hopefully the 16 page application form and 3 min video will put a lot of people off applying...
