Could you ask for anymore in a UA-cam video? Two good blokes, under a rainy tarp in the woods, discussing British biscuits. Thoroughly enjoyed this one Barney!
Cheers Ben, glad you enjoyed it. Its always a good craic camping with Des, regardless of what the weather does. All the best 👍
Bloody great camp Barney. What kind of rucksack you using?
Cheers, glad you enjoyed it. That rucksack is the Virtus 40 litre Daypack with the additional 5 litre side pouches. It's the current British army issue 👍
Since I’m Canadian I needed to find out what a bimble was
It's an old English expression which refers to walking with no particular haste or purpose. I believe its origins are with the military who would use this term when not out on parade or TAB'ing (Tactical Advance to Battle). I kind of think that Bimble is a nice way to describe a leisurely walk in the woods! 👍
Great vid. Can’t wait till the next instalment. Please add Malted Milks and Ginger nuts to the list 🥸
Cheers Rich, glad you enjoyed it. Malted Milks will definitely feature soon, maybe even some chocolate malted milks! Ginger Nuts are great too, I reviewed them on the last camping episode 👍
Splendid transmission Gav old chap. Made me want to get out behind enemy lines. Great dunking action and biscuits selection. Chicken looked jolly spiffing. Yiu Chaps rubbing your wood 😂 Tally-Ho S
Cheers Steve, glad you enjoyed it sir. Definitely need to get yourself some dirt time behind enemy lines 👍
Every biscuit tastes better after being dunked (in tea)
Absolutely, even Rich Tea's are improved after a dunking! 👍
Nice one Barney…ginger nuts and choc hobnobs hit the spot for me. Spotted you chatting with your mates at the WG and didn’t interrupt as I was convinced I’d see you wandering around, alas it was not to be. Oh…and there’s always jammy dodgers 🤡
Hi Stuart, really sorry that I missed you at the WG, Des mentioned that you were around. Glad you enjoyed the video. Choc Hobnobs and Digestives will be coming to the channel soon 👍
Barney that was excellent mate i was smiling watching this one, despite the rain we certainly had the crack, that chicken of yours was very good for sure. Barneys dunking biscuits was excellent thoroughly enjoyed that despite being poisoned by the tea Until the next one cheers matey
Cheers Des, it was a pleasure as always. I was very proud of you to come out in the open like that and enjoy a nice cup of tea!! Until next time sir 👍
Was that a Chick-f-A cow at the end saying thanks for eating more chicken??? I was glad to see you got Des to go both ways with the tea over coffee…always bring the bigger tarp you can fold it over if it’s too much. Have fun stay safe.
Hi Kenneth, glad you enjoyed it. Des is a secret tea drinker and he's too ashamed to admit it!! 👍
@@barneysbimbles Well you definitely outted him…
Great video Barny 👍 As chairman of the Essex division of the '2001 Biscuit Club', the extensive tests carried out during that decade showed conclusively that the British Standard Custard Cream was, in fact, the No;1 dunker in Great Britain. FYI: We used the 3 elephant count AND also used coffee as the overall standard warm beverage. Good to Des giving his expert opinion as well.........
Hi Steve, always good to hear from you. Didn't realise you were the chairman of such an esteemed association!! Custard Creams are definitely winners in my eyes. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Love a rainy camp 👌 Rich tea with cheese on 👌 but you wouldn't want to dunk that 🤮 Fig rolls are a favourite for me, and garibaldi are a great dunk 👌
Hello matey, yeah there is definitely something appealing about a wet camp. It's a good test of your campcraft and also nice when you can enjoy the rain from the comfort of your shelter. I can kind of see Cheese and Rich Tea. I've had stilton with digestives and they were pretty good, it's a bit of a sweet and sour thing. I love Fig rolls and Garibaldi's but just not sure about their dunkability, maybe that's for a future video? All the best though, hope you can get some dirt time soon 👍
@@barneysbimbles I get the same feeling when I'm in waterproofs working in heavy rain, I absolutely love rough weather 😄 I'm going to take a leaf out of your book mate and do once a month starting very soon. It's my daughters fault I just can't tear myself away from her the cute little git! 😄 Haven't camped since December 22nd! Definitely need some tree time! All the best mate and hopefully the Bourne Burton Des Barney and Bivouac night will happen at some point, it is inevitable 😄👍
Great one as normal. Would love to hear what you think of Malted Milk biscuits. Another long established biscuit on the circuit. Used to call them Moo Cow biscuits when I was little.
Cheers Peter, completely agree with you on the Malted Milks, they're awesome and the chocolate covered Malted Milks are probably up there in my top 3 👍
Really nice bike 👍🏿 Last week I took delivery of the On one Big Dog! another steal MTB with a similar looking frame also a 29er, but with suspension fork. In my 50s now and needed something to keep me fit pre and post hip op, but didn't want to be messing around with traffic (I love the countryside). It's nice and not to pricey.
Thanks, hope you enjoy the new bike. I think On One/Planet X are giving us a lot of bike for the money, I've been really pleased. 👍
Great video!!
Cheers Ty 👍
I used to get home from work and dunk a double barrel pack of custard creams in bucket of tea. A massive mug really. Love a custard cream. Des - "Let's get the 5h!t ones out the way." 🤣 19:58 it looked like Des was shaking his coffee beans ready to wash his mouth of tea taste 😆 I need to go on this wood rubbing course... lol Them hazel sticks looked good when I saw you this morning. Top job chaps.
Cheers Tim, Des is a secret tea drinker, he just doesn't want to come out the closet about it. That's why he always gives me stick and tries to fight the urge! It was a pleasure as always to bump into you yesterday, well done with the weight loss 👍
@@barneysbimbles Sounds like he is, doesn’t it 😁 Same mate, great to see you again. A short and sweet catch up. Weight loss was simple. I just stopped having a beer during the week. Too much beer belly for my liking 😊 Thanks a lot. 😉👍🏼
Nice one Barney ! 🕊🕊
Cheers Tim 👍
Was it a little emasculating to bring along the rich teas mate? 😂
Ha ha, to each their own, but they're not for me! 😂
You certainly made the best of wet camp mate, plenty of room under the tarp. Good food and company so a good camp in my books. Lost count of how many rich teas I’ve lost in my cup of tea 😂 atb Dave
Cheers Dave, I think we've all been there with the Rich Tea's 👍
luv the channel cant help but laugh 2 hairy guys in the woods macho campers wild ones at that having a biscuit review nice one lads 🤣👍
Ha ha, glad you enjoyed it. Everyone loves a biscuit though don't they! I think that we need more hairy wild campers doing biscuit reviews 👍
@@barneysbimbles spot on get the kit kats out 🤣
Everybody in Bushcraft knows Des Cattys is an absolute knob head, very touched nutter mate. Great video pal. 🏕
I like the way Des tails off his tarp so the run off will pour into your area 😂😂😂
Yeah he's so thoughtful like that. He brought posh biscuits though so I'll let him off!! 😂
@@barneysbimbles 🤣🤣🤣 They looked better than the shared biscuit accommodation yours had TBF 🤣🤣🤣 #Bants
I'm not happy about your biscuit transportation device! Surely the custard creams would have tainted the rich teas when they were bunched together? You need to up your game, Barn 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Lee, good point, well made. I've got to hold my hands up to that one. Will do better next time. Although of anything a tainted Rich tea probably would have made it better! 👍
I wish I'd known you guys were there! Tim told me you were there Sunday... we were literally 200m from you guys I reckon. Didn't hear you as we left either 🤷🏼♂️.
We were in a different spot this time, shame we missed you though 👍
@@barneysbimbles Oh 🤣🤣🤣
That's a sturdy set of wheels and a pretty one too! (I can relate to the "kid at christmas" feeling so very much right now as I just picked up my new Omnium Cargo and am madly in love with it.)
Thanks, I just had to Google and find out what an Omnium Cargo was. Cool bike, looks like you can carry a lot of kit with that. It's always exciting when you get a new bike though isn't it. Thanks very much for checking out the video and commenting 👍
Nice MTB, Barn. Get yourself some nice lycra short with anti-bac and padding around the posterior. You have made me fancy getting my GT Aggressor 2.0 back out on the trails. Also a nice little dingy bell...lol Call the bike Bootsy.
You don't want to see me in Lycra Tim, I'm pretty sure there are laws against that! Go on Tim, get your bike out for a spin. A squirt of WD40 and she'll be like a new one! 👍
@@barneysbimbles Nor me good sir. When I did the Pilgrims Way in memory of my Dad, my Lycra was concealed under camo shorts 😊 My little white lallies are shameful, but my tackle fills any Lycra… as long as it is cold 🤣
Thanks for the video Gavin, I missed the boat, on the bobcat, probably like you, watched videos where they were being promoted and purchased for £60. When I went to go outdoors they were £100 just couldn’t bring myself to do it! Lol. A hack i saw for the spam, was to pierce the bottom of the can, it does work, must release the vacuum
Cheers Dave, glad you enjoyed it. Usually there's a sale on or a discount code to be found. National Trust members get a decent discount at Go outdoors. Great shout with the spam, I don't have it too often nowadays as it costs too much!! 👍
First-time visitor - liked and subscribed. Very nice trip. I think it's great that you search for and seize the opportunity to get away for a bit. Well done - self care.
Thank you, really glad you enjoyed the video 👍
The Bimble zipper! Great vid, nicely timed as I am in the market. Cheers
Bimble Zipper, excellent I might go with that! Definitely worth looking at the Planet X website if you're in the market for a new bike, they've got a decent range and I liked that you can get them on a 0% finance deal. I was also looking at the Sonder bikes over on the Alpkit site 👍
Barney you need to get Des a diffuser for his “Darjeeling Coffee”. He’d probably call it his coffee HORN to raz ya more. 😂😂 Like the new wheels!
Cheers Ty, if Des wants a diffuser for his stupid coffee then he can damn well get one himself 😂☕
I've used Planet X for years, and can vouch for the quality of their bikes. In fact I still have a carbon On One Lurcher that was my main race bike when I bought it 12 years ago, for cross country MTB racing. Still going strong, and it's only 18lb with rigid carbon forks. A lot stronger than me, I might add.
Excellent, glad you've enjoyed them. I did my research and certainly didn't find anything negative said about them 👍
Liking the new steed Barney, much more suited to off roading in those woods. I’m sure you will have it modded up in no time 🚲👍
Cheers Dave, I was watching one of your bike packing load out vids while I cogitated over what bags to get for the bike. Still can't decide whether to get a rack or not! 👍
@@barneysbimbles I’m on a trip next week and will be using panniers on that one , I can get 4kg in each one with another 3kg in the front roll bag. Basically it’s my camping gear for the hills . I have the rear seat post bag but have never used it as I can’t get much in. So a rear rack for me is a must , although the minimalist look is good but in practice is not for me 😂🚲👍
Very nice new wheels!
Cheers matey 👍
very mice bimble bike
Nice one mate Like the new wheels
Cheers matey, be on foot tomorrow, but this will be my steed for future adventures 👍
No worries Yeah like that Catch up tomorrow
Honey Stoves are no more.. bob sold up and retired I have the stainless and ti versions of the honey and pocket stove...
Yeah that and the pocket stove. It's a real shame that you can't get them anymore.
Now your speaking my language. Dunking biscuits. But WHAT ABOUT possibly giving us some history of the biscuit if any??? 😁
Cheers Mike, glad you enjoyed the biscuit content. I'll see what I can do to add a bit of historic context! 👍
I am taken aback by your Ginger Nuts, Barn. Really a disgusting biscuit may I say 😁 Chocolate HobNobs or, Custard Creams would be my preference. The Schwalbe tyres. Are they made by the WEF and Klaus Schwalbe? 😊 A pleasant looking night in the woods there, Barn. Funny a Scout group walked through though 🤣 Looking forward to your next outings 😉👍🏼
Hello Tim, always a pleasure to hear from you sir. I'll accept that ginger nuts are an acquired taste. I like them and I don't care who knows it! Custard Creams though are most definitely biscuit royalty, very impressive dunkers. Blimey that Klaus Schwab comment was very niche, didn't have you down as an economist! Looking forward to seeing your vid from last week 👍
Great video on the bike Barney. Looking well despite all the sweat 😂 Lovely location and what are the chances of being discovered by a group of scouts. Loved the biscuit feature, I am a bourbon fan, so top marks for including it in the first session 😂😂 All the best. Lee 👍
Hi Lee, hope you're well. Glad you liked the biscuit segment. I'm quite partial to a bourbon and they're exceptional dunkers 👍
This was my first video of yours I've seen. I like the calm feel. I thought u had coffee until u said it was tea. What kind of tea? Also u got another subscriber. Cheers.
Hi Nathan, thanks for checking out the video and subscribing, really glad you enjoyed the content. That was loose leaf tea (Yorkshire Tea) that I was using in a tea infuser that I got off Amazon. I'm quite partial to a nice cup of tea!! 👍
Great video mate, loving the OEX bobcat, been thinking about getting this one. Look forward to the next biscuit dunk!!!!
Cheers matey. I'm really pleased with the Bobcat, can't wait to take it out to a more exposed location for a proper test. Glad you enjoyed the biscuit review, plenty more of them to come. 👍
Just discovered your channel and videos - thank you for taking me along, this was wonderful.
Hi, thanks for checking out the videos, really glad you're enjoying them 👍
Bob cat is a great little budget tent! If you want one for free, head over to Julie Phelan's brilliant posts, she's giving one away in a free draw. It's a no brainer and gotta be worth a punt for a free tent!?!?😊
Thanks Tim, I completely agree with you about the Bobcat. I'll check out Julie's channel 👍
Ahhh great camp. Very relaxing. Jam and bread for me straight after school sometimes with a digestive in the middle mmm delicious Looking forward to your dunking clip rich tea biscuits for me with hot tea. Thanks for taking us along all the very best Pete 👍⛺️🚴
Hi Pete, many thanks for watching and commenting, glad you enjoyed it. Living your best life with your bread, jam and digestive combo! I might have to try that. Rich Tea have gotten a lot of love in the comments, which has surprised me somewhat. I will of course be busting them out for an upcoming camp. 👍
Really enjoyed watching this. ❤
Thanks Oliver, glad you enjoyed it 👍
Which frying pan is that one, dude? Seems like a good little pan and a decent size too.
Hi, that's the Evernew 6.5inch titanium pan, and have been really pleased with it. You can get them from Tamarack outdoors or Ultralight Outdoor Gear. Unfortunately they're quite expensive, I was lucky enough to get mine in a sale. 👍
@@barneysbimbles Thanks for the info!
Loved the Barneys Bimbles Biscuit Break segment - Gingernut dunk is the way forward!! Jacks (Tescos?) chocolate digestives are bullet proof when it comes to dunkin!! but obviously best enjoyed with a Darjeeling coffee ;-)
Cheers Rich, the biscuit reviews are here to stay. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that I've not had any comments from the ginger nut haters, I always thought they were a divisive biscuit! The Digestives are probably a video in themselves and I shall come to them in due course and give them the reverence that they deserve. I'll politely ignore your final comment! 🤬👍
Great video. I've just changed froma 44t to a 39 having been defeated by Bristol hills with camping gear. Off to the peak district to try it out later this week and I'm hoping to glide up hills! Can you sit up in the Bobcat if it was raining? To read and stuff?
Excellent, I'm thinking the 44t might suit my needs and the hills in Kent. The Bobcat is great, it's still only a 1 person tent so is not exactly a palace. But, I'm 5'10" and can sit up in it with no issue. It also has a very generous vestibule and a really clever door with four zippers allowing you to configure the door and vestibule area in multiple ways. I've not used mine in the rain yet, but I'd be content to spend a bit of time inside if the weather did close in. Hoping to get it down to Dartmoor later in the year 👍
nicely done Barney 🙏
Cheers Tim, lots of inspiration sought from your dunking video with Dave 👍
Great video, got to keep the BBB reviews. Every biscuit is better after being dunked.There is always a bit of jeopardy dunking a Rich-tea as it may plop back into the brew. And Fig-rolls seem to be indestructible no matter how long they are dunked for.
Cheers John, glad you enjoyed it. The biscuit segment is definitely here to stay. I've had a few Rich tea comments so maybe they'll be the next biscuit of choice. The Fig rolls have also just generated a bit of conversation between my wife and I. I love a fig roll too, but are they a biscuit? It's like the Jaffa cake debate all over again! 👍
Lovely biscuit friendly video Barney, great to see the Brompton out and apparently people go for a 39 or 40 tooth chain ring for hill climbing assistance, might be a good idea to put a lock on the bike if you can't get it in the tent as you never know ! Lovely breakfast, great tent and set up, thanks for sharing 👏👋
Hi, glad you enjoyed the video and that is for commenting. Yeah I think I'm definitely going to get a 39 tooth chain ring for the brommie. I live in a hilly area and need all the help that I can get. Fair comment about a lock too, generally the bike doesn't leave my side, especially when I'm commuting with it, but I have been known to tie it to my shelter when camping! 👍
Cheers Barney 👋
