Received a text from Sanjay David on Monday night at 10.30 asking me to see Nat Geo NOW.
Hurriedly switched on thinking even he participating. Unfortunately he wasn't.
Allan was the only familiar face. Anyone else here participating?

Anyways, good luck Allan.

Also, what do you think of Kalarippayattu? Do you have any experience with it?

I have trained in Akido, Kyokushinkai Karate (full contact), and Silambam. But not Kendo, I got my sword training as part of Aikido. Now I mostly focus on self-defense rather than any style. I have read a lot about Kalarippayattu, but hard to get training in that. Most Kalari guys are now minting money in massage business.

jaggu the things reality tv make you do

Ardy · 17th May 2010, 23:26

Saw both the episodes and waiting to see more.

No offence Allan, but you are so silient and calm on the show. From your style of posting and your vehicles, always thought you to be more of an outgoing & vocal person. Probably knowing you in person would change the impression.

Do agree with you completely, your Gypsy looks really hot.

Cheers,

lsp · 17th May 2010, 23:44

And it sounds even hotter!!

So who is leading the points table as of now? They were flashing the scores so fast, it was hard to read.

I have to admit, this has been a very gripping reality series so far.

The offroading looked pretty simple, and the vehicles were moving like it is a rally.

Can anyone post the internet link for todays episodes please, i reach home late and will always miss the tv show.
