Not heard of that one - we had something here a couple of years ago - they kicked a bunch of people out with only a few pounds in their pockets to find their way round the world via various specified countries - anything like that?

Yeah, that sounds similar, very similar. Therre's also one here that I haven't seen...it may be over by now, with Richard Branson, called Branson's Rebel Billionaire or something.

Another one I haven't heard of - how do you like all this Reality TV that's on lately?

Some people will watch almost anything if it's on the tube! Not that there aren't a few decent shows. But a few are just so unrealistic...yett people Do watch & someone's getting rich!

I watch some of them but not others. Some of them are so contrived it's laughable. They published the fees list for the current Celebrity Big Brother and Brigitte Neilson is getting 120,000.00 GBPounds ( strangely no pounds sign on this keyboard and again as I don't know what this equates to in dollars) for 18 days in the house!!! Plus of course all the publicity she's getting. Seems scandalous to me to pay them that kind of dosh for hanging around in their pyjamas for a couple of weeks .... but maybe I'm just jealous

That's quite alright Muv, I mean it's not so much specific/exact monetary value as it is the whole disgusting principle! And of course it's the same this side of the pond.

They say that the prize money is covered by the revenue from all the voters' phonecalls - so in a strange kinda way it's a self-financing operation. Clever planning on someone's part methinks
Anyway Jaz'd - I'm off to feed the then to bed
Enjoy the rest of your day honey and I'll catch you again soon I hope.
