    Nature manager here. This is not pine, but spruce, most likely Sitka spruce. I have walked through kilometers of this through my work. A good tip: walk backwards through it and lean your weight slightly backward. This saves a ton of energy and lowers the risk of getting your eye stabbed out.

    I too was recently blown away at how good the Co-op meal deals are. Cornish pasty, as a snack?! What a time to be alive!

    Your music is so under appreciated. It adds just the right ambience to your videos. Almost every yt content makes use of existing music, and thats not necessarily a problem. But Toms videos are 100% original and it’s awesome. Love it. Good work man.

    Big up Co-op meal deals, I work for them and I can't tell you how many people don't realise that enormous pasty is a snack, let alone FREE if you buy the right sandwich and drink. A great place to work, lunch breaks are short but well catered!

    Hi Boss, I just wanna say huge thanks for the determination and dedication towards these, walk across in a straight line series. They’re always a thrilling series and something I look forward too (which is rare these days). I’m also appreciative that you get to experience Cumbria and Northumberland in all its glory(ish). Thanks for the series! 🙏😎👊

    Watching your videos has successfully inspired me, on the second week of the summer holidays my mates and I are journeying through a LONG route I've plotted from Milton Keynes to St. Albans taking (hopefully) 9 days. This is preparation for a big challenge we are prepping for in three years, a walk from the base to the top of the UK.
    PS; i love your videos

    Tom, this is the best long form adventure content you’ve posted since Whales #1 in my opinion!

Truly, this is of the best content RUclips has to offer! Keep it up, mate!

    Keep up the great work.

    For those who don't have any experience walking in wet woods.. you can't assume any step. A log with bark may strip away under pressure, a log without bark may have completely different characteristics from the previous log that gave you basic traction. You're gambling on every step that's necessary for supporting your weight.
