living down under

Hi all just a warning note!!
I bought"living down under- Brisbane" from e bay, paid £12 what an abosolute rip off don't waste your money
Its a badly edited home video in a fancy packaging, it's soooooooooo boring & at times you can hardley hear the narrator for the wind howling in the mic
Hope i'm not crossing boundaries sharing this!!

Hi ya Michelle
A month or so back l put my copies of the gold coast and sydney ones on here for people to have a look at at pass on. Now you know why l offered them for free . They really are a bit duff aren't they! and the cover makes them look really pomising too. Sad really as with a bit more forethought they could be so useful.

We were one of the people who were unfortunate enough to watch the Gold Coast one. Thanks .

We were going to copy the disc and then show our friends what we'd be moving to . We are so glad we didn't, we'd have been a laughing stock .

We are sure we could have done a better job and we are no actors or camera people by a long shot.
Still it was an experiance, and we're glad we went through it . We'll remember next time we see free dvd's!!! STAY CLEAR

All the best

The Tuckers
