I'm pleased to hear you use a hot water bottle . my mates used to laugh at me when I used to bring mine .they wernt laughing at two in the morning when I was warm and they were freezing there Jacobs off lol .
Epic Video John, quite a lot of snow for your side of the bush. Don`t believe that crap about snapping twigs will cause arthritis, arthritis is Hereditary. I`m 58 disabled from arthritis, snapping twigs is the least of your worries. You put in more hours working than snapping twigs. Cozy lil camp site you made, enjoying nature`s winter wonderland. Thank You for sharing your video, and bringing us along. ATB
I love how you start your journey from you home and neighborhood. Few campers do that. Cold tea due to Emma. Love the snow/sun shades in your winter wonderland. I like the tarp setup. I guess when the snow melts, you'll have some flooded camps. Arthritis for snapping wood? Everybody is a doctor these days.
I was wanting for this dude I new u would go back out and thank you for sharing it. You could teach wild camping / bushcraft for a living. Loved every minute of this video 👊💪.
It is always nice to see someone else freezing their butt off while I sit in my warm kitchen thinking about how much fun it would be to do this. NOT!!!! It has been on the cooler side here in Southern California and I think that is TOO cold. LOL. Enjoyed your video.
You are so lucky to have such a beautiful setting to camp in. Might try a Swedish log fire the next time if you can. Or a Finnish heat fire. I am glad you didn't freeze. Love your videos! Thanks!
John you know I love your videos and I think the world of you, you seem to make life so full and enjoyable many thanks as always, but From a guy who is 67 and just had a second knee replacement I to grimace every time I see you or Tim snapping branches with your knees. I'm sure you know what your doing , but in my case the pain is to much to think about. keep up the fantastic videos . many thanks pal.
Nice bloke having a nice camp in the snow great work mate, i was wondering when the epic grub was going to turn up and then at the end haggis and black pudding with bacon, NICE ONE. Great camp and keep warm and safe well done.
When I was a teenager me and my mate used to go out in this every time I come home from school go straight out with our tents even when the school closed we went camping in the wood because the wood was part of the school grounds so we went camping in the woods and set up out tents .
Nice one John, I love the fact that you made a snowball wall to fill out the gap between your tarp and managed to melt some of it with the fire lol. Keep up the good work bud. A.J
Excellent Vid mate, next time maybe use the old roll a ball in the snow like making a snowman and surround the tarp with big ass snowmen :D would look Epic :)
Wasn't it glorious John ! ...I was out walking the dogs in it, then later at night went out for some footage, and we didn't get it half as deep as you did down here in Glos. But that wind ! ......It battered me on the open fields......It's always fun, no matter the age. Great video buddy :)
I hope that was free range haggis you were eating! I heard they do have a habit of wandering. Another great video. You have balls of steel to go out in that weather! Brilliant advice about eating yellow snow, it`s not the best, as I have heard. Also like the fact you told people to use common sense and get more experience before going out in snowy conditions. You have my respect John!
Damian's yeti watching you bro, spooky. Great camp in a white out anyway and made for great viewing. Never noticed you were being watched till I saw it mentioned .
Lovin the reasoning with the shades no redundancy there :-) Hopefully non of us would die out there even those with less knowledge than yourself - its about making the right decisions for yourself knowing your limitations and having a little bit of kit - ATB
Yeah totally agree that if you use common sense you will be ok but unfortunately not every one has this it’s been in the news that 11 have died in this storm and wear I live need the Lake District mountains mountain rescue has save 1000s from the cold cos they didn’t have the kit or the no how to get out of the bad weather
Great video but are you mad you have a nice warm home and you go camping,I must admit it was great to see the snow but you're a brave man hurry up with more stay safe and warm from Scotland
Maybe he has a team that helped him set up camp and collect fire wood and then he spent the night in a hotel Mr.John Grills. Just teasing you bro awesome camp!!!
Life is for living, if you end up with arthritic knees so be it, you'll have enjoyed your life to the fullest :) You're only using your knee as an extra pivot point anyway. You do it how it works for you, use northerners are tough lol... Though when I saw the snow I thought that's get home before I slip and dislocate something, whack the heating on, snuggle under a blanket time. Lol
We were in the red zone for the storm and was out and about and thought myself I bet that mad bastard Carlisle is out camping in this. PMSL good stuff John.
John the ones who are saying things are jelous of you. They wish they could go out like you do. And this would been a great time for the old moss camp if you had a small stove to put on the inside of it. Stay safe and watch for signs of frost bite. Sorry EMT in me coming out.
wish i wasnt so far away id tag along fer a trip hard ta find someone here that likes to do this stuff and id say you sure do !!! great stuff i watch all yours and hi from new brunswick canada
everything you do is either funny or for good reason plus i always enjoy seeing what you bring for treats cakes n so on and you sure like cooking n eating lol😂
"I remember the rule, don't eat yellow snow. And don't boil yellow snow, unless your Bear Grylls, then you can boil yellow snow." 😂😂😂 Awesome video John! Thanks for the laughs. Great to see you so excited for a camp. Seems the UK stole all the snow. Lol.
I love your videos mate but is it just me or have others mentioned how quiet your audio is? I am subscribed to a few other similar to yours and the audio is always good. I have to have my speakers on full tilt to hear your ones. It won't stop me from watching yours but wish you could up your audio.
WOULD BE GREAT TO SEE YOU HAVE A NICE QUAD BIKE FOR THESE TRIPS,, I KEEP DOING THE LOTTERY, DON'T BE SURPRISED IF ONE DAY YOU SEE YOUR POSTMAN STRUGGLING UP TO YOUR FRONT DOOR WITH A MASSIVE PARCEL ONEDAY , MICK FROM SURREY, BRILLIANT VID,
I think ya need to call this camp site *"Slush River"* This is where you needed the 4x4.5 DD to make that tarp set like Tim had the other day down low ⛺ tent style!👍 Would been a great spot for a Long log 🔥 super shelter camp! Haha! Yes don't worry about the Arthritis in 20yrs! According to the D.B.M.J. *"Doctor's of Bushcraft Medical journal"* Doctors with Master degree in the field of BovineScatology (B.S.) You'll be long dead from BPA poisoning from that plastic bottle you boiled water in! 😔...lol 😵 Bacon Haggus burger and Black pudding bacon burgers with Marmite sauce! 😈🍔R's Next time take a little vanilla extract some heavy cream and sugar get the snow in ya Zebra and mix and make 🍨 "Snow ice cream" Mmmm! Haha! I just love Chunky Logage! 🙂 "What? Burn the tarp!" That's what the 🐒Gorilla tapes for! Gives it that rugged "Mors Kochanski" Bushcraft homie lived in vibe...lol 🙂 A Snood? Little 🐖Piggly's got a cute little Snood 🐷he roots around with! 👍 We need to figure out how to turn that water bottle into one of them camel pouch drink systems that fits in ya Burgen with a rubber tube and clip it to your strap and you could drink from it while walking and fill it with ya hot brew! 👍 Was a very nice Cold video Chef liked it very much! Two thumbs up! 👍👍 Atb friend! Till the next one! Mark in Texas! We Gone!...
