Agree with you. Patrick's videos are excellent and I look forward to each one. Only Patrick Dickinson and one other youtuber who does camping videos are the ones I really look forward to. There are no others who are a patch on these two wonderful people who brighten my day with their videos.
@@shiralleehaggart72who is the other RUclipsr you are referring to please? I'm just curious because if he or she is only half as good as pat then they're worth checking out. thankyou
I got my RAF marksman certification at that firing range in 1979. I was with the Air training corps, 1082 squadron from Brimington , Chesterfield. I can still remember sitting on those benches in the target bay. We had to take turns in the target bay and paste over the holes with white squares of paper after each one was used. Then we hauled them back up above our heads again on a pulley so they could be shot at again. It was a real thrill listening and watching the bullets fly over our heads and into the target. I remember the sand enbankment clearly behind the targets. I live in Canada now but I remember it very well. We had an all day map and compass excercise on top of the moor above the range. I can still remember walking by the Totley tunnel vents on top of the Moor. It was pouring down rain up there and glad I had my rain gear. Thankyou so much for doing this video. It has brought back many memories.
This is really great to hear, that you where actually there and how you operated the targets, to hear the bullet zipping just feet over your head and thudding into the embankment, just amazing. Alot of the barriers are still there but all the target mechanism has gone, and the whole site is slowly returning to nature, thank you for sharing your experiences........Pat
Brilliant to read this. It keeps the the place alive hearing off someone that actually operated there. Both yours and Pats accounts are really fascinating. Thank you.
I had the exact same experience only in the mid 90’s as an Army Cadet from Sheffield. The sound of those ricochet’s of the bullets passing over your head. In fact I must have been one of the last people to use the range. I remember when it closed in 1997. We still continued to camp up there after they closed the range for other exercises.
Patrick as always combines an informative fascinating chat and of course a great wild camp, anyone else automatically click ‘like’ at the very start ? ! 😊
I do aye. As a fellow Yorkshireman I always know it will be interesting to me personally, and listening to Pats Dulcet tones is like a comfy pair 'o slippers for me ears 😊
Thanks Ray, it's a great feeling to be back out wild camping, sometimes got to go off and try other interests, but I always return to wild camping...... all the best Pat 😊
your routine of having a walk , cooking a meal and having a chat. seem to be a very successful formula and I have seen no complaints in the comments. Your observations and your presentation is always interesting and entertaining. Thanks. Keep it up.
Great to see you back wild camping. Must do the heart and mind a world of good getting away from he noise of every day life. Truly inspirational. Love watching👍
Hi David, yes once I get up on the hills, any worries, or daily problems just disappear , and life takes on a more natural pace, just love it....... thanks Pat
Patrick, a big thank you in advance, as your videos are so good now I'm going to save this and watch it later in the comfort of my armchair with a good drink! But thanks for now!
Another interesting camp, Totley was very interesting, who would have thought Ritzy Totley would have a shooting range, I'm a long time fan, I first saw you deep in the Lady Bower Dam, I loved your tunnels especially the one near Killamarsh and Spinkhill as we lived there for a few years, Exploring the underground of Sheffield and Megatron was simply unreal, Love the Pub shed chats and your car camping and foreign trips, Everything you do is COOL and so interesting, It doesn't matter what you do, I will be watching in awe, Cheers Pal.
That's really nice of you to say, and I have enjoyed all the videos I have made, looking forward to having some great adventures in the hills...... all the best Pat
Great to see you back out camping Pat. Those quilts are ace - I got an Enigma a few years back, never use anything else really now as so light and warm. Great camp. ATB, Chris
Hi Chris yes impressed with the quilt, first time I,very owned one, like you say, so light and compact, a big saving for summer camping, more about kit in my next video...... thanks Pat
After galavanting around Spain it's great to see Patrick back on his home ground again. After thoughts of WW1 and reading 'All Quiet on THE Western Front' we don't know how lucky we are. 5 star video
Pat, you are such a great storyteller. I could listen to you for 38:19 minutes.😉 You're so interesting, you speak from the heart, and you make changes when they need to be made, rather than continue on with what you have tired of... I admire you. Thank you for your vlogs. ALL of us love them. Have a beautiful, enjoyable weekend, and thank you, Pat, for being you. 🏡🙏🏻🌲🌾🌆
Fantastic video... Never knew about Totley Firing Range.. All those bullet shells 😮. Oh yes and a nice curry tea too. Can't beat it. Great video as always and looking forward to your next adventure. Ps Barnsley Library want the book back 😂😂. 👍
It's fantastic to see you back out wild camping Pat, I'm glad you're still doing this. The wife and i love your wild camping videos , especially the cooking one's crack on pat, and thank you .
Many thanks Richard, yes I have been missing, but pleased to say the hills are calling and I,ve been planning some future wild camping trips for this coming year........ thanks Pat
I've only just come across your channel. It's absolutely brilliant. I loved this particularly as I was born and bred in totley, and I still walk the dog all around the totley moors. You present the videos very well. Great entertainment 👌
Good to see you back Patrick. I really enjoyed your little informative video on Totley firing range. My uncle considered himself to be a bit of a crack shot. He tells a story that in the early 1950's when he was home on leave from his army national service he took his standard issue army rifle up to the shooting club at the firing ranged & surprised a few of the members at what he could do. Hope to see you in the Itchy pig again one day 🍻
Nice wild camp Pat. Enjoy watching your adventures and informative content. I like the way you mix up the videos you make, whether it’s a wild camp or in your home pub or travel video they are always good viewing. Thanks for taking the time to make them and sharing them with us. Cheers 👍
Really interesting about the history of the area Pat and what a view from the camp! A curry and treacle pudding and custard for afters, perfect night all round.
Very interesting to see you combine exploring, local history, and a wild camp. A great idea, hope to see more of this format! You are always very entertaining to watch and a great storyteller. Thanks Pat!
Always find myself waiting in anticipation of your videos having watched most of your channel, Said before my initial interest was your disused railway tunnels and then enjoyed watching the underground drains, never thought I’d enjoy wild camping videos just because it wasn’t my thing however i genuinely enjoy them, given me the motivation to push myself to get out onto the moors myself living not far from Buxton. I’m planning on attempting the Marsden to Edale walk you filmed some time back looks a great adventure, Thanks the inspiration! Already looking forward to the next video.
Great to hear I,ve inspired you to get out , I,m sure you,ll love it and the Marsden walk is a fantastic challenge, all the best with that. The tunnels were great but as always wild camping is my main love..... all the best Pat
Thanks mate. Throughout the 70s/80s you could see the white tagets agains tthe hillside when driving up Baslow Road and we we always used to look out for them.
What a great video Pat, never knew it existed, loved the history of it all, thankyou for all the work behind it,all,, your a legend, just stop jumping streams haha take care Pat x
Love your video's Patrick keep them coming 💯 I'm an outdoor person I excersise mies every day! I love the education you give us! I hope your keeping well! Be good to see Derwant Damn Valley again I went last year with my son 👍💙
Another great video Pat. It doesn’t matter if you camping Flying exploring or just in your garden pub you make great content which is informative,entertaining and funny in places ie handing stolen goods lol. Can’t wait to see your next video as they always make my day and cheers me up. Take care and hope to see you soon.#TheSheffieldLegend 👏👏👏👍
Such an interesting video Pat, I'd love to visit that area and soak up the atmosphere and the history of the place. Great to see you back out in your natural habitat of the tent 👍 Look forward to getting the low down on all of the new gear! All the best mate, Lee
Thanks Lee, very atmospheric place with so much history, great to visit these places before they disappear, and so good to be able to camp above the range...... thanks Pat
As usual excellent video Patrick. I so look forward to your adventures. Had a chuckle at the end as the music sounded similar to Countryfile, something you not telling us 😂
Haha, recognised the music and wondered if ok to use it but from RUclips audio library so ok, it just sounded like a nice end to the video...... thanks Pat
Patrick so good to see you doing what i think you do best Brilliantly captured as ever You inspire so many All the best and looking forward to more 👍👍👍😊
Thanks Rich, I do go off on a tangent occasionally but always return to wild camping, looking forward to some exciting camps in these coming months..... thanks Pat
Thank you to both of you, we have few military sites in Sheffield, but this one is generally unknown and slowly the site is returning to nature....... thanks Pat
Good evening Pat, we have been subscribed to your channel for a few months now and thought it was about time we left you a comment. The first vid we watched of yours was your Old age pensioner wild camping on the edge of Kinder Scout, we are not wild campers or even campers, but have been inspired to maybe give it a go. We love the Peak District and have visited many times over the years we watched your videos to help our knowledge of the area and the lay of the land to help us with our own adventures when we visit. Your videos are just great and we often laugh out loud, you are the wild camping king 🤴 of You Tube! Our last trip to the area was in early April, we managed to find your famous spot and add an entry, after watching your videos and a few others I thought I had located it using an OS map and google maps and was thrilled when we found it. What an amazing spot! Thank you so much for all your videos we have thoroughly enjoyed them. It was also through you that we found Solo Sarah B she's great, and has the same enthusiasm for that place as I do. Look forward to watching your future wild camps 🏕 Sadie and Paul.
Hello to both of you and so nice to hear from you, remember my OAP video, I think part of that was to prove I could still climb up Kinder Scout and wild camping, must admit doesn't bear thinking about the day I cannot get up there. I think Sarah will do great with her channel she has a lovely of the great outdoors which shows on her videos...... all the best Pat
No Patrick, the reason you pay out money for lightweight gear is so you can bring along a few beers! 😁😁 But seriously, great to see you out and about camping again, always a joy to come along with you. And very interesting info about the firing ranges, wow, they go back a long time!
@@patrickdickinson6492 Im on the cider watching just now and no ale for you. Very interesting coms about the firing range as I have been in the firing butts in Scotland with the Territorial Army
I had a bit of an explore of this shooting range during lockdown. I actually came across randomly whilst I was working nearby. I could tell it was a shooting range but no Idea it dated back pre ww1! I imagined more of a hobbyist/shooting club facility. Thanks for the vid Pat really interesting to me.
Glad you liked the explosive start, I was worried I may of made a few people jump, hope you enjoy your visit, the city centre seems to be changing all the time...... thanks Pat
Very interesting video thanks Pat. I've lived in Sheffield 45 years now and never even knew that place existed! I shall have to go and explore! Also went up to the place at Ringinglow a few weeks back and popped a note in the book 😁👍
Hello to both of you,yes definitely worth a stroll round, slowly nature is taking over, so watch the brambles, they are lethal, and I’m have to check the entries in the book, so interesting to see who has visited……thanks Pat
Late to this one because ive been away. Yet another great video Pat. I do love it when you add a bit of history to your videos. Felt like the old days of when you used to go inside the tunnels and the Lady Bower. You always had some fascinating information in those videos. Thanks Pat 👍
Hi Pat, like all your followers I too am glad to see you well and back on with your great videos. Just in time too as only yesterday I was getting my gear packed ready for another cycle/ wild camp up to Scotland next week. Will look into the quilt thang for the future as any weight saving is always welcome. Don't think I could put that much curry away so close to bed time 😂. Take care always, Michael
Hi Michael, sounds a great trip you have planned in Scotland, hope the weather and midge's are kind to you, will be taking a closer look at my quilt on next video...... thanks Pat
As always a history filled video, enjoyable commentary is likewise 😊 Cheers Pat 👍 Saw your name in megatron the other month from when you went down all those years ago, years of heavy rain and its somehow still there!
Thank you a bit different to the underground explores, but still a bit of an adventure, remember my name being down there, thing is I never wrote it, but glad it's there, I had some fantastic times down there..... thanks Pat
Pat, regardless whether you're jetting off to foreign fields, in your pub shed or wild camping your vlogs are always great entertainment
That is so good to hear Alan...... thanks Pat

I do aye. As a fellow Yorkshireman I always know it will be interesting to me personally, and listening to Pats Dulcet tones is like a comfy pair 'o slippers for me ears 😊
I loved the tunnels, river walks, DD, and canal tour. Plus the wild camping.
When I left Sheffield in 1996 the rifle range was still active.
Yes I do have several interests, but always return to wild camping..... thanks Pat
So good to see you back again Patrick. Great video as usual and also very informative 👍
Thanks Ray, it's a great feeling to be back out wild camping, sometimes got to go off and try other interests, but I always return to wild camping...... all the best Pat 😊

Thank you! Will do!.....it's always nice to share my adventures...... all the best Pat

Good evening Pat, we have been subscribed to your channel for a few months now and thought it was about time we left you a comment. The first vid we watched of yours was your Old age pensioner wild camping on the edge of Kinder Scout, we are not wild campers or even campers, but have been inspired to maybe give it a go. We love the Peak District and have visited many times over the years we watched your videos to help our knowledge of the area and the lay of the land to help us with our own adventures when we visit. Your videos are just great and we often laugh out loud, you are the wild camping king 🤴 of You Tube! Our last trip to the area was in early April, we managed to find your famous spot and add an entry, after watching your videos and a few others I thought I had located it using an OS map and google maps and was thrilled when we found it. What an amazing spot! Thank you so much for all your videos we have thoroughly enjoyed them. It was also through you that we found Solo Sarah B she's great, and has the same enthusiasm for that place as I do. Look forward to watching your future wild camps 🏕 Sadie and Paul.
Hello to both of you and so nice to hear from you, remember my OAP video, I think part of that was to prove I could still climb up Kinder Scout and wild camping, must admit doesn't bear thinking about the day I cannot get up there.
I think Sarah will do great with her channel she has a lovely of the great outdoors which shows on her videos...... all the best Pat
No Patrick, the reason you pay out money for lightweight gear is so you can bring along a few beers! 😁😁 But seriously, great to see you out and about camping again, always a joy to come along with you. And very interesting info about the firing ranges, wow, they go back a long time!
I'll remember that Steve, and yes so much local history when you search a bit deeper..... thanks Pat

Thank you very nice of you to say ........ thanks Pat
Pat, respect you are a legend ........
I had a bit of an explore of this shooting range during lockdown. I actually came across randomly whilst I was working nearby. I could tell it was a shooting range but no Idea it dated back pre ww1! I imagined more of a hobbyist/shooting club facility. Thanks for the vid Pat really interesting to me.
Thanks Rob very nice of you to say...... thanks Pat
Hi Sean yes a very interesting site with 100 years of history, wandering around you wonder how many young men passed through the range .......Pat
Best opening scene I've ever seen. Visting my home town beginning of June for the first time since 2010.
Glad you liked the explosive start, I was worried I may of made a few people jump, hope you enjoy your visit, the city centre seems to be changing all the time...... thanks Pat
Very interesting video thanks Pat. I've lived in Sheffield 45 years now and never even knew that place existed! I shall have to go and explore! Also went up to the place at Ringinglow a few weeks back and popped a note in the book 😁👍
Hello to both of you,yes definitely worth a stroll round, slowly nature is taking over, so watch the brambles, they are lethal, and I’m have to check the entries in the book, so interesting to see who has visited……thanks Pat
Nice video pat learn something new everyday. Interesting 👍🏻
Thanks Darren, great to share these days out..... thanks Pat
Nice to see you back op to see lots more of your great videos 👍

Thanks Neil, so much history in that small area..... thanks Pat
Late to this one because ive been away. Yet another great video Pat. I do love it when you add a bit of history to your videos. Felt like the old days of when you used to go inside the tunnels and the Lady Bower. You always had some fascinating information in those videos.
Thanks Pat 👍
Hi Johnny, away myself so bit late replying , good to have such an interesting site to camp nearby…..thanks Pat
Great bit of local history here Pat!
Yes slowly returning to nature, but great to catch it before it goes, and a great viewpoint to camp at……….thanks Pat
Hi Pat, like all your followers I too am glad to see you well and back on with your great videos. Just in time too as only yesterday I was getting my gear packed ready for another cycle/ wild camp up to Scotland next week. Will look into the quilt thang for the future as any weight saving is always welcome.
Don't think I could put that much curry away so close to bed time 😂.
Take care always, Michael
Hi Michael, sounds a great trip you have planned in Scotland, hope the weather and midge's are kind to you, will be taking a closer look at my quilt on next video...... thanks Pat
We enjoyed that one Pat. no rain and fine rock to len on . Gonna look out for thank treacle sponges. 😃
Yes Larry, just perfect conditions , and treacle sponge...... thanks Pat
As always a history filled video, enjoyable commentary is likewise 😊 Cheers Pat 👍 Saw your name in megatron the other month from when you went down all those years ago, years of heavy rain and its somehow still there!
Thank you a bit different to the underground explores, but still a bit of an adventure, remember my name being down there, thing is I never wrote it, but glad it's there, I had some fantastic times down there..... thanks Pat
Loved this video and all the rest I’ve watched So enjoy the rest of May and looking forward to June PS hopefully one or two more from the Pub shed👍
Thanks Danny, will be out camping for foreseeable future, I,m sure we ll return to the pub shed one day....... thanks Pat
It’s nice to have a theme subject to the back ground of your wild camping and not just someone advertising free gear they may have been given free
Inspirational stuff Pat. Makes me want to get out there and live! Cheers!
Hi Kevin, and thanks for commenting, and yes it is so good out there, and you really feel alive, just wonderful…….thanks Pat
