Love the beer holder👍 and great video.
On tap AND perfectly chilled - doesn't get any better! Cheers. Rich 👍
Not sure what was going on, could only see your face, hands and glasses! Glad to see your getting out and about. Hopefully we have the whole summer to chill out doors.
😂Like a leafy ninja Del. Yeah it's nice to have the gloves off now eh? Looks like things are getting there your side of The Border too. Let's make the most of it eh? Thanks for watching and commenting pal. 👍
beer bladder of the gods on this one Rich! good on you for that. last time I had 4 DTs before bed I think I ended up sitting by the canal in Amsterdam with my trousers wrapped around my head (warm night ;) ). here’s to the Belgians eh? 🍻
😂 Brilliant! I can totally see how that could happen with DT - although Duvel seems to be the one that catches up with me if I'm not careful. Both are too easy drinking for their own good! I think what saved me here was the fact I was drinking little wooden kuksa cupfuls at a time, so I managed to stretch it out over a few hours. Anyway, yes - the Belgians are a clever bunch! Cheers mate. 👍
Thanks for this video and info. I've just bought a hammock and am very excited. I'm about to purchase the DD multicam. Good to hear a Midlands accent, too.
No problem Gemma, and thanks for watching. I hope you love sleeping out with a hammock and tarp as much as I do - best of luck! Rich 👍
Nice camp. Looking forward to seeing your midweek overnighters.
Cheers Bernard
Glad to see you're back out in the wilderness Rich, talking the talk, looking well weapon and leaving no trace.
Carry on Camping. 🏕️
Proper weapon Drew 😅 . Great to be out yes, as you well know my friend. Thanks for the watch mucker. Rich
Thanks for the nice video, nice to see you out again.
Thanks mate - glad you enjoyed. 👍
Great video.
Don't mind the talking. Nice setup.
Cheers Doug - appreciate it! Rich 👍
Very cool setup!!
This was a very comfy one - thanks for watching! 👍
Nice vid mate - good to see you back in the woods! All the best, Andy
Cheers Andy - been enjoying your latest this evening too. Rich
@@CottonBud Cool!
Top setup dude
Great video
I just need to buy the 3x3 MC tarp for my son and I then
We are good to go..
Top stuff thanks for the share
Some custom goose down, under and top quilts are worth they’re weight in gold, true warmth and designed for the purpose.
Great camp, liked the tarp config using a regular style tarp.
Clever beer suss! I’ll have to steal that!
It does go a little flat when decanted from the bottle, but it was at least lovely and crispy cold!
Good camp Rich .. hope you do talk on yer next vids .. I like conversations.. I never shut up lol .. cheers buddy cheers Chris & Sam
Haha I think I may chat a bit on the next one - cheers Chris & Sam!
All looked good Rich, I enjoyed the food. I'm out this weekend with 2 lads. The underblankets with hammock camping does help!
Good man Steve, I hope you all have a great time - weather looks good eh - no wind? Cheers. Rich
nice work sir, you have a new subscriber, i like the no nonsense approach and i do not recall ever hearing reggae in a wild camping vid before?
Oops thanks for the reminder Martin - I forgot to put a buy link for the music in the description! I only use my own compositions so my choices are a bit limited... wait until I start having to fall back on my morris dancing concept album. Cheers for the watch, comment & sub, very glad you enjoyed. Rich.
@@CottonBud have to admit i only looked at your list of vids after posting, just before going to work. that's when i realised the true extent of your genius! :-) even at 54 i like a good dub mix and its been bothering me all day that i called it reggae, im looking forward to a bank holiday of both sides of your talents,,, sorry starting to sound like some fanboy!!
Haha relax Martin - it's deffo Dub Reggae! Or at least my streak of piss approximation of it... 😅. I did actually use another dub track on this vid a couple of years ago - at 15 mins ruclips.net/video/gIECOUwBbx8/видео.html Anyway, I hope you enjoy some of the tunes!
And thanks again! Have a good one 👍🏻 Rich
Nice little video rich, good to see you back out mate. And that was a cool little set up with that tarp! Loving the bushbox yet?
All the best mate
Ash
I’ve had the Bushbox since last October Ash mate and it’s already been worth it just for garden use over lockdown - so quick and easy, I love it! The grill works a treat too. Thanks for watching boss - will catch up with your latest ASAP! 👌
I like Helikon gear
I Only Use trumpet Tarp Configs when i take mushy Peas with me lol. Great camp good to be out i will when my healths better , ATB.
😅haha not to mention sprout fried rice! Sorry to hear you aren't well mate, hope you are up to getting out soon enough. Cheers for watching. Rich.
Very interesting setup. I guess without snaps it would still work just not as good.
Yeah, would just need to fasten the tie out points somehow. Mini carabiners? But there would still be a bit of a gap for a some wind to blow through. 👍
Maybe guy it out to the opposite sides to minimize the gap. Btw commenting so late because I'm a proud owner of swagman roll since yesterday so I'm searching RUclips for videos of it in use
@@lildevilgamer oh congrats - a brilliant bit of kit! Funnily enough I used my Swagman roll as a hammock underblanket for the very first time last week on a little daytime camp, it fits the DD very well. It’s a shame that here in the UK it is rarely warm enough to get away with it on an overnighter! I tend to use it as a coat, an extra sleeping layer, and a pillow.
Good to see you back out Rich , that looked far too technical a set up for me lol . You blended in well to your surroundings, I did like your beer on tap tho it made me chuckle. I hope your well mate and ready for a year of camps atb Dave
It was a right faff and no mistake Dave! But it's out isn't it? And that has to be good. Certainly champing at the bit for more camps now, as I'm sure you are mate. BTW I did enjoy your latest last night, but was on the telly so couldn't comment - I will do though! Cheers mate. Rich. 👍
I've never stepped into my bag and swung in... even in my DD Jura 2...(I've sold that now because I never used it that way and it was crap in cold weather) I just don't get the whole step in and swing thing 😂 Nice to hear your voice again Rich, I prefer the talky ones mate.👍 cool set up, shame you had a chilly night but hey... it was a night out and you didn't die eh? Until your next one. Lee
Funny, I would have put money on you being a swinger Lee 😅. Yeah the Jura has a centre zip of course which is much more hammock friendly, but then that sweaty plastic footbox in it is there to enable the ‘step in and swing’ ting I believe. Cheers for watching mate. I did comment on your latest but RUclips made it disappear again - no idea why. Suffice to say I loved it anyway! Look forward to the next one. 👍
@@CottonBud Bloody YT... do it all the time. I've never swung in my life I have you know 🤣😂 I loved the concept of the Jura and center zip is ace but that footbox!! It was a pile of pony and attracted cold air like an aircon unit in a 1980s Merc
@@CottonBud Next one is actually with Hardy in the peaks in about 10 days time... like I'm counting 😀
@@BurtonOutdoors 😆. My nephew got a Jura when he got DD'd up last year and first time he used it his feet were like two hot chips in a rubber johnny by morning
@@CottonBud 🤣😂🤣 I always found it cold in the foot department... like the last 2 fish fingers in the freezer... all frosty and hard 🤣
Nice one Rich I've not seen that setup before what do you carry in your chest rig and what is the elastic for you have put on I have used a jungle bag in the same was as you for my hammock it worked a treat it definitely retains the heat atvb jimmy 😎😎
Thanks Jimmy. The chest rig tends to have camera gear in, so I can get to it without taking the rucksack off. That's a Helikon Tex too, and very comfy, I don't notice it's there even when fairly loaded. I've also got a Jungle Bag , and the Swagman is perhaps a similar sort of size, maybe a tad thicker, with the hood hole in the middle. It has lots of elastic all over it, and toggles, which make it very versatile to cinch up around yourself as a poncho, but also around the hammock too - at least I managed it fairly easily after that Delirium Tremens anyway 🤪. But yeah, an over blanket on a hammock seems the way to go - it does make a nice warm little micro climate eh? Cheers for watching mate. Rich 👍
i was admiring that tarp of yours at DD about a year ago, then suddenly they were no longer available. i emailed them and they said they'd withdrawn it for a bit to do some upgrades and so forth but assured me they'd be offering it again. still waiting, but hopeful.
Ahh that's good news, I was sort of hoping that. Mine hasn't failed at all after a fair bit of use, but I'm sure the guys at DD just want it to be even better. Deffo snap one up when you can mate - the extra tie out points make things like plough points even roomier too. Cheers for watching - Rich 👍
@@CottonBud bit off topic but i read your blog post about going off pubs over the past year or so. you're not alone. totally unexpected for me but ... yeah, i'm very much with you on that. ps. Delirium T. on tap! now that's a night in the woods! :D
@@teeeff5179 Well I did notice the La Chouffe logo and assumed you were a fan of quality beer! Yeah the thought of a beer garden just doesn't really appeal at the mo I must say - let alone inside a pub. But yeah, a dedicated hydration bladder for beer, hanging from a tree, is the way to go 😅. Thanks for taking the time to read the blog mate.
Their new pro tarp is using buckles instead of poppers; not sure why as the poppers seem like they'd be much smaller. Perhaps people were tearing them off when they tried to unpop?
Yeah I wonder if they were rusting together when stored wet or something? Luckily I’m borderline obsessive about drying out my kit, takes me about a week after each camp 😅. Great to see the Pro back at DD anyway. Cheers. 👍
Love that stove! IT? Where can I get one? Also appreciate your taste in beer - Belgian Trappist beers - sublime
The Belgians have got is sussed as far as I'm concerned Matt. The stove is the Bushbox XL Titanium (hence the 'Ti''). Fantastic bit of kit but painfully expensive. It has been so worth it though, use it loads, even in the back garden.
Enjoyed the video. What chest rig are you using?
Thanks Jay. That's a Helikon-Tex Numbat. Highly recommended!
@@CottonBud Cheers buddy, I’ll check it out. Big fan of the Helikon Tex gear. 👍
Was that a little tribute to Erik at the beginning Rich? Great little setup mate. I've not seen a tarp set up like that before. It looks like a good way of keep the wind off but I wonder if it adds to the condensation. Some great shots and the sound was really clear. A great use of your hydration bladder 😉. Great to see you back out in the hedgerows again and cooking like Gordon Ramsey 👍🏻
I think we all aspire to be a bit more like Erik don't we Jiffy? He sets the bar very high. Yeah I did wonder about condensation too, but nothing on this particular night, other than on the over blanket, around the head area, which would always be the case I suppose. Nice to have a camping tea that wasn't rancid for once 😅. Cheers for watching and commenting mate. 👍
@@CottonBud I’m in the Erik camp too. I know some prefer talking. I’m easy but do like decent sound and the feeling that you are there, just a bit warmer. Perhaps we should do a tag team, I’ll talk in one and you do a silent film then we swap 😂. Take care mate 👍🏻
what size is that tarp 4x4?
No
DD Pro? What's this witchcraft you speak of?
well you completely skipped the most intersting part a this vid... how hell did you rig asquare tarp into that shape
