Perfectly Put Mate

Truckie, sounds like some Powerful Pin Money there?

I'd buy Oprah's show and then axe it, and pay every hollywood Producer to never allow Tom Cruise to work again.

Tom Cruise= Playing Peoples Minds

Unfortunately Tom Cruise owns his own production company; United Artists. :(

Or we could become Catholic Priests haunting the racetracks and never having to do a days work ever again.Ho Ho.

Posted after one of these splaw footed **************s trod on me toe in his haste to put a bet on.

Cheers.

Though I've only been to a few racecourses thus far, I've always thought it would be fun to visit all the country's tracks, as each one seems to have its' own certain charm. And like Darkydog, I've always wanted to travel around Australia, so if my pipe dream came true I'd probably spend 6 months to a year on the road staying in only the finest of hotels, exploring Australia's towns and cities, making sure to visit as many different racetracks as possible along the way.

Then I'd buy a modest mansion in either Battery Point or Sandy Bay down in Hobart, or possibly somewhere in Melbourne's inner east for myself and another for my parents. My mansion would have to have a swimming pool, so that I could enjoy a swim every morning. And since my mansion would likely have a fairly extensive, private garden, I'd probably need to employ a gardener, and I wouldn't want him to be lonely, so I would probably require a maid also to keep the house in order.

For a car, I'm torn between either an environment saver, like a Toyota Prius, or something a bit more luxurious...decisions, decisions. And like Pengo, I'd support charities and causes that help animals and the environment. I'd probably also need to take a couple of holidays a year to Europe...with such a hectic lifestyle I would need some time to relax and unwind, you know.

Snap...back to reality. Now where's that formguide...lol.

Wouldnt it be great, travelling Australia and having a year on the punt all paid for up front

Funny isn't it, were still attracted to the racing spectacle even if we were filthy rich and didn't need to win. Hong kong, France, Royal Ascot, ********ucky, Melbourne cup (VIP tent) mmmmmmmm, of course Qantas Business class all the way, Hyatt every port, VIP lounge etc etc. dream on eh?

How about, Economy round the world ticket (FF points), 3 star hotels, regular taxis, Maccas for lunch, take in a few local meetings along the way. Add the odd 5 star splash out, then laze for 2 months in the Philippines on about $50 a week!! well eat yer heart out cos I'm off on the 12th of March! YIPEEEE!

PS that was only Ken Tucky, not the rude word!

Have nice time party.
I have to disagree with you about the economy ticket but. We don't mind takeaways and 3 star hotels, but having traveled extensively in the past (spec. with the kiddies in tow), we now halve the number of overseas trips and go business class instead. I know, seems like a waste, since we get there at the same time as the c-class, but God, spending 24 hours in very VERY close proximity of someone who last had a shower when caught out in the rain, or listening to or ... you know what I mean!
