    Another good idea,for another time of course,is a spray bottle filled with soapy water. Then you can sprsy your hands to wash then,then hand sanitizer. Many van lifers in usa will use the soapy water spray bottles to wash the dishes afterwards,in order to save on your most precious resource.....water. can also be used for bathing!

    Hi Brendan, watching from Australia. I think you are adorable, what a lovely young man you are. I'm very impressed with your all 'round wholesome and extremely likeable persona, and smart too. Very entertaining and switched on. I often think you're a natural for television. Don't know why someone hasn't snapped you up. Frustrating to see you park next to those vehicles. That's the last thing I would do if there was room around. Too close to other people if you're trying to have a nice time on your own, and can invite trouble. I get the flat surface thing, but parking areas are usually fairly level. Be that as it may. One thing I will say is I feel sorry for you having to pay for parking everywhere you seem to go. It's unbelievable. Love your videos and look forward to more of your adventures.

    Hi Brendan, glad you got the engine sorted. I was worried after the last video but glad all is well. Nowt worse that smack head numpties parked near. I had that on a parkup and they ended up tipping out piles of maccy d wrappers ( which I picked up after they'd gone)- which no doubt the locals would blame on camper vans. Looks like you had a great few nights despite outside spoilers. BTW, always good to see the legend that is your Dad. Its sad he didnt get along with car camping as that video you did with him was brill. You should persuade him to come on another.... Come on Brendan's dad, do another camp out with him-your fans deserve it! As ever Brendan, much respect🙏- Kenny

    PS,
    Oh, I have a tip for you, so when you forget your throw-away gloves.
    Just dump the chicken in the pan and cook it before you cut ✂️ it up, then after you cut it up, put it back in to finish it off, add to veggies, and then you never had to worry about salmonella giving you ( the swooshies). LOL 😆
    Stay awesome

    Think some of that special baccy might have wafted into the van. First the oak post that made me spit my tea.

    Maybe you could consider using some ramp/chocks so you can still park on uneven land… then you wouldn’t need to park so close to other campers who were parked there before you. If I was that MH I wouldn’t be happy with you parking so close when there is so much room.

    • @BrendanExplores
      @BrendanExplores  6 месяцев назад +2

      Fair point but as you could see, even the flattest spot in that car park needed blocks to level out.. there's courtesy and then there's sacrificing comfort. I was easily 2-3 vehicle lengths away from the front of their van once properly parked

    I think you are worrying a bit too much about the chicken. Washing in soap and cold water would be fine. Open the pack without touching it - turn it upside down and tip it in the pan. Cut it in the pan. Also you can wash the knife after the chicken and before the veg, to be honest the veg is getting cooked so it doesn’t matter if the knife has been used on raw chicken.

      That's a fair point 👍 but I will say there wasn't many flat spaces on that parking lot and even the one I chose needed blocks to level out. There's courtesy and then there's being comfortable. I was atleast 2-3 car lengths away from them in the end though 🙂

    I have recently started watching your videos and rather enjoy them! BUT I will say I did not like the way u were calling them numbtys and plonkers when all they were doing was parked up just like u were ! I may also add that the devils lettuce is known medically legal in the UK juts like any other prescription it tell u not to drive if u feel impaired. But they also could have been parked up for the night ! I don’t know I just don’t think u should be slandering people on camera when they have done nothing wrong

      I respect your opinion mate and you make a fair point 👍 I don't consider myself the perfect person and sometimes I make mistakes but I can never condone drug driving but each to there own. Do what you like in private but please don't endanger other road users. I was probably a little harsh on them though so fairs fair

      @@BrendanExplores Totally agree with you. Even on a prescription, driving is illegal after smoking it. If someone had a collision and was found to have cannabis in their system, the penalties can be the same as for drink driving.
