Thier web site sates that they are quite sucessful (but it would, I suppose). They also do much less extreme stuff, like placing kids in vocational training and with supportive families for extensive therapy. The survival stuff is $11,000 for the first 30 days and $160 per day therafter!

Charlie is the one with the most violent history, so they gave him a knife to demonstrate their trust in him, as he had been behaving (and now the hippies walk 'round in pairs on safety grounds).

To deserve the knofe do you mean? Got his head together, basically, and he is very good at starting fires.....and with those staring eyes as well. Scary stuff! He lost out when they found out he'd been cheating. But took the punishment well.

beansprout · 24/03/2004 13:05

Only about the pairs bit, but I bet they do. It looked like a damn sharp knife too. And Charlie was very happy to have it. Go figure hippies.

It's his eyes that worry me, oh, that and his history of violence!

I wonder how he got on with the other group as the only 'Englisher'

I wanted to see what had happened after Fran threw away all her food last week but was still doing 12 mile hikes every day.

I have a strong sense we are not seeing the best bits.

I quite fancy Dan.

Coddy · 24/03/2004 13:11

..dan...hmm whos he?

OP posts:
hmb · 24/03/2004 13:14

The 'oh so cool' Doc. He of the calm conversation and the swish ear piece on his phone.

Yes, I agree about the missing the best bits. I'd have loved to see Frand whining for her supper and being told 'Tough shit kid, you shouln't have thrown your food away' They wouldn't say shit tho, they would have to carry a rock for that. Blimy I'd look like a walking mound of stones if I was there.

beansprout · 24/03/2004 13:14

Dan is the one with the pink hair. And the spots.

And more spots.

hmb · 24/03/2004 13:17

I was thinking about Doc Dan, his name is Dan isn't it? or am I going mad?

Dan (aka Kevin) seems to be doing quite well.

I must be getting very old, but I can't help but think how much better they look without the metal and daft hair cuts.

Was it Fran who brought in the nits do you think? Yum, nits and Dredlocks, nice.

hmb · 24/03/2004 13:18

Have you got a thing about zits??

beansprout · 24/03/2004 13:20

Not really in to Dan. Bless the little fella but it makes me feel sick to look at him.

Will blame pg sickness to make myself look better, but I know I'm just making excuses.

Charlie looks like Wayne Rooney a bit.

Actually we don't know how he took the punishment, hmb - we only saw a glimpse of him packing up. He might have kicked and screamed for hours and then beaten somebody up.
Last night's was a bit disappointing really. I did appreciate Rachael's comment though, when she found out she wasn't going home - that her mum should have said No all along. YES! YES! HELLO! This is what's wrong with most of them - unrealistic expectations.

(And Fran has the bonus of also being completely self-centred. They're not going to give her a knife, are they?)

hmb · 24/03/2004 13:29

For the very sad (ie me) this is their web site

www.redcliffascent.com

True, but at least Charlie didn't punch the guy when he told him, so that was a step forward.

I wonder how much the staff get paid?

beansprout · 24/03/2004 13:30

He does look like Wayne Rooney!! Although he prob thinks he looks like Justin Timberlake. I love it when children grow beards.

Surely the really interesting programmes would be a) how they convinced them to go in the first place, and b) what they are all like 6 months after they get back?

hmb · 24/03/2004 13:31

Who is Wayne Rooney?? Real questions, I'm an old boring fart, damn another stone to carry!

beansprout · 24/03/2004 13:33

Wayne Rooney is a boy who plays football for England and, I think, Everton, but could be wrong there.

Am with you on the rock thing hmb, no disrespect but I would look like the grave at the end of Schindlers List, after about five minutes.

hmb · 24/03/2004 13:34

ROTFL you and me both!
