    If you ever stop in nottingham again on a bypass to Lincoln. You would be better staying somewhere around Ruddington if you want a peaceful night. Close to routes linked to get to lincoln

    Sorry your visit to Nottingham was less than enjoyable but a stealth camp next to the Meadows estate isn’t a great idea. You’re right that it’s a different place during the day at night it’s full of boy races as you found out. Bit further down and you may have had a better night. Hopefully when/if you come to Nottingham next you’ll have a better stay. Love the channel 👍

    I agree with @b4ckdoorb4nga40 - meadows is not rough like it used to be, it’s actually quite sought after these days. I think those commenting that it’s awful, may still know the old meadows or thinking of specific places that are still rough. The embankment (where you parked) was a perfect rat run, racing strip and cut through - its a busy spot, but not for crime. That road you parked on is now pedestrianised to stop the racing etc - has always been one of my favourite spots of Nottingham that road! If you come back, there’s some lovely spots along the river gunthorpe way/East bridgford way (which is closer to Lincoln) and that’s out of the city. Enjoy!

    Its a real shame you didn't have a good camp. I always enjoy watching your videos, thank you! I'm not sure I agree on your take though, you don't live there and the 'hoodlums' as you refer to them as, do. While it might be considered anti social behaviour they appear to be in a public park which is not a designated camping spot and also looks to be away from any houses so the only harm they really did was to make too much noise and disturb the stealth campers who are not entitled to be there. No one got hurt and it makes me sad that they were really doing no harm in their local area and having a bit of fun but because you were disturbed they were labelled as Yobbo's.

    Pretty sure people get away with murder and not get banned from Aldi. You only film not even a minute in their stores for your videos and you get a ban?! Try filming with your phone, everyone else video chats in supermarkets so they'll be none the wiser.

    • @BrendanExplores

      Can’t get over the contrast between evening and morning at your camp! We were just up at Go Outdoors in Shrewsbury on Sunday and I said Brendan’s Aldi is near here, we’ll pop in next time! They’re missing an advertising trick banning you filming! If your fancying a calmer camp, we found Llyn Brianne near Llandovery. Two car parks to choose from, very peaceful and a dark skies site. Then we camped at the lake in Llandrindod Wells. They welcome campers and there’s a lovely Victorian town to walk around. X
