Interesting no one has utilized technology with SMS.

The opportunity to SMS people regarding tv times and specials they are doing.

They should have a mobile phone registration for this.

I know some people may not like this but if you don't .....don't register.

Just my thoughts from a marketing idea.

I actually love watching Pat’s shows and I really enjoyed tonight’s show on Moreton Island.
BUT!

The one big annoying thing about these types of travel shows is that my long list of places to go just keeps getting longer!
So many places to go, so little time to do them.

Yes the Moreton show as good , but the advertising gets a bit too much I reckon ....
( Sure I would say everything I have is great if only I got it for nothing too ... )

Like getting bogged to show how good the max trax are ... Only thing was he was bogged right up against some hard sand so he only had to go the distance of the max trax to get on firm ground ... how many sand hills are like that

? And since when does digging out under your tyres stop the diff from pushing through the sand , which is how you get stuck most of the time anyway

Sorry for the rant , but my recent experience with mechanics suggest that people in the media should not " endorse " anything , because if it turns to poo then that magazine looks stupid ... ( hello... Roothy ? )

Yeah, see wher u coming from. I guess its the old information vs education experience.

Just watching replay now - would rather be on Moreton myself right now but this is certainly better than Everybody Loves Ray, or any other tv crap you could care to name

Once again, you don't pay to watch this stuff, so tolerating the ads can't really be that hard... can it? For every person who's already all kitted out there is one who isn't, and shows and mags are a great way to find out what options are out there. I just learned a bit more about the Coleman hot water system, which I have been considering for a while - in fact what they just showed during the show was enough to seal the deal for me. So, Pat get some bucks to help produce the show from Colemans, I get to watch the show for free, and Colemans gets some bucks from me - everyone wins

I just watched the Moreton Island show. Don't get me wrong, I do think Pat is doing a great job, but Hello ... 1 hour of driving up and down beaches was just a bit too much. So I didn't get to see the camp grounds, I didn't get to see much of anything. I think it should be renamed Pat C's 4x4 Sponsors Advertorial Show, as that was a poor effort to advertise a destination (wasn't that the reason he was there?). All I saw was an sponsored advert driving up a beach, another beach, and yet another beach. If it wasn't for the lighthouse and the concrete cupboard ... it could have been absolutely anywhere. At the beginning he said he'd show us here, here, here, here and there ... but all I saw was sponsored product placement driving up and down a beach.

It didn't impress me much.

Haven't been able to get a hold of the magazine, as it seems none of my local newsagents are selling it, but I don't wish to subscribe till I've had a good look. Might have to see if the library has a copy.

Fair call, Kit-e.

I know that Moreton has at least one creek crossing that is iffy at high tide - it would have been good to show it, with some info on the risks. It would also be worth showing such things as what parts of the island have good views, a bit on driving ettiquette when going on and off the beach at ramps, some footage of actual campsites etc. This is a different market to the 'Queensland Weekender' punters, who only need to know which way to point the Golf on Saturday morning - this crowd wants the gritty detail on destinations. Are there sandflies? Should we take both sand pegs and ground pegs? What UHF channel is popular in that area? Etc.
