Thank you all for your entries - all 7500 of them! The winners have been drawn and will be announced in Wednesdays video. The draw is now closed. Simon.
ANDY! You and Simon should have a 'Camp Off' competition with each other. Judged on things like location, fire building and cooking? Oh and best beer in attendance 🤣
Your humility and hard work is why your successful. My family and I enjoy each and every video. My 14 year old Son loves camping and is learning so much from your content. As a Father, I appreciate watching good videos without profanity with my family. Thank you for all that you do.
Ah, the first Simon video of the new year. It has that lovely aura of peace, hope and kindness. Truly a channel that deserves 100K subscribers and many more.
So pleased you've hit this milestone! Finding this channel restored my faith in UA-cam, no ads and just pure therapeutic content from a humble and all round nice guy! Im in!
No need to be thanking your subscribers. Your video content is genuinely excellent and it is a wonderful thing to be able to watch it and share in your Love of the outdoors
Congrats again Simon 👍. Truly one of the most humble and genuine guys on YT. Top drawer content, as always and fantastic prizes. Please count me in. Atb, J 👍.
You're just such a likeable chap.. And your filming is good too! The subs are well deserved and more will come. All the best to you and your family from Norway ;-) P.S. I'm not in. Hope someone who needs it wins! I bought that skillet after watching one of your videos.
I'm in! My husband got be hooked on your channel, we watch all your adventures together.We love the outdoors and camp cooking as well. Thanks for all the great ideas!👍 Love your pup Maggie!🐶
Simon, I've been watching your vids for a good few months now, I've not seen this one before, but you have still the same humility and compassion, it's truly infectious. I look forward to many more videos I'm sure you'll produce. And BTW, your omelette flipping skills are on par with the best 👌
Fantastic, you put in so much effort in an honest way that makes you head and and shoulders above many others.. keep doing what I , and I’m sure other’s, like watching
I am so glad I found your channel. You have taught me quite a bit; my favorite Brit!!! Lol. You like everything I like in getting away and using bushcraft skills which I have been learning along the way. Thank you for your videos and please don't stop making them. I have learned knots, the shelters with the tarp, and Dutch oven cooking techniques. I just bought a new Dutch oven, so I am looking for people like you to learn from. Thanks.
Hi Simon Thanks for your enthusiastic videos over the years and looking forward to seeing more in 2023, your becoming one of the few sane things in this crazy world we live in👍 I'm hoping to win one of your prizes 🤞
“I’m in” We’re enjoying your tips and tricks.. being a family of five from the great Northern Maine woods.. the kids can’t get enough of your shows.. Thanks for what you do!!!
Im in‼️ Your influence on my camping life is huge. I'm always watching you from Japan. I am fascinated by the beautiful scenery you project. We will continue to have great camps‼️
"I'm in" I have to laugh every time you tell us that you can't go anywhere in the UK where there are no people. Here in Northern Alberta where I live I am blessed to be able to leave my house on my side by side and within 5 minutes from town be totally on my own for days. (even longer) Plus I can carry a knife, Gun, crossbow etc with no worries. I never want to take this freedom for granted.
Simon, thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos, I am very ill at the moment with type one diabetes and epilepsy and registered blind, although I can still see a bit in one eye, I also have kidney failure and anaemia and am now waiting for a kidney and pancreas transplant, as you can imagine it has limited what I can do substantially, however you have been a great encouragement and inspiration and I have set up a tarp shelter on the trees at my parents farm and am doing some foraging and cooking etc there, it may not be out in the woods but it’s as close as I can get atm, I was inspired to do this by your back yard videos 🙏🏻👍 thanks again and God bless
“I’m in!” But as I live in the US, if chosen could you find a good local bloke in need who would appreciate and use the kit in my place?! Such a well deserved following for your tireless candor, honesty and authenticity. Keep it up. 👍🏻👍🏻
can i put myself forward as your elected "local bloke" ?? , greetings from the UK Phoeff , hope some sort of normality in your country returns before too long my friend!!
@@charmainegentz9543 maybe it can but then the cost of shipping (cast iron remember!) would obviate the point of the giveaway which is to thank his supporters for the support we give him. It’s not supposed to cost him extra money!
I need to confess: Im getting a lot of merit points for amazing camp cooking at the moment. The range and variety of the ingredients and the general menu has been noticed by my better half. She knows I watch your channel, but I haven't completely come clean about where all this creativity is coming from.
"I'm in" Love the videos One suggestion I have is that after every food video where you make something you could leave a honest score of 10 rating the food you have eaten.
Note that he carried the prizes, _along_ with all his gear. Gotta respect the effort. What a gent Btw, I'd like to be entered. Help lighten the load ;)
One reason I stopped backpacking in the UK is exactly what you mentioned: you can never really get away from people. It's one thing I appreciate out here in the southwest of the USA.
You are a genuine man, that is why you are loved by your subscribers. I recently discovered your channel and love your adventures. Thank you for all that you do. Be healthy and safe.😊
I I'M in ...I've never won anything, competition, lottery, or bingo...but i'm in. God bless yer Simon, love the smell of pine woods love the scent of blue rising smoke.
‘I’m in’- My 8 year old Son and I love watching your videos together. We’re currently stationed in the Netherlands where, sadly, open fires aren’t allowed but we move East in a few months time where Overlanding and Wild Camping is legal and we’re beyond excited.
Hi Simon. My husband is you #1 fan in Florida and we spend many a hour watching your videos. Thanks for all the content you put out there. I’m in on his behalf!
WOW, You are a world celebrity now. I thank you for including us on your adventures. The comments are still great to see how far around the globe people are watching and how many comments are written. There are a lot. You may not get to this one, as it’s a bit late. Congratulations on doing so well from your friend in Corpus Christi, Texas.
I'm in, please! :) Congratulations, Simon! Over 100K subscribers, wow! :) Here's to even more success for your channel. Thanks so much for making these soothing videos. It's like traveling, camping and canoeing vicariously. Big hugs for fluffy Maggie, too. :)
I’m in. Hello from Canada. My husband and I have enjoyed watching you and Maggie on your various adventures for the last few months. Keep up the good work.
First prize for "omelette flipping"! If I had tried that it would have ended in disaster. Thanks for your videos, they have kept me entertained during a very strange year. Oh, "I'm in" by the way.
Thank you for "going down to the dirt" to make your fire. I have been in anti-gmo activism for 21 years. I appreciate any help/thoughfulness toward the environment anywhere in the world. It all helps and contributes.
I just ran across Simon via Andy and Kent Survival in the last few months and I love both channels. From the US I find every adventure you both take entertaining and so educational! I will continue to binge watch and follow you both
I just gotta say, man, i've always loved camping, but i've never really been able to do so except for like 2 school trips. Now, being an adult, im just waiting for quarantine to be over on my country so i can go out and camp, and your channel has been such a wonderful ride to binge-watch as i wait. Thanks for the amazing content, and congratulations on the subscribers! You deserve them~ " I'm in " as the rest are saying, and i wish everyone luck. This is an amazing gift you are sharing with everyone, not only the prizes, but your content, so we appreciate it!

I'm in for the competition! Hmm. If I win I might have to actually go out into the woods rather than living vicariously through you!
I’m in. And we should be thanking you Simon... for everything you’ve taught us and all the amazing places you’ve taken us to. Much appreciated!
I'm in. Cheers from British Columbia Canada!

“I’m in” from Southern California in the very mixed up US. Your videos are a gift alone. Thank you for your channel.
I’m in. Love the content it’s like Jack Hargreaves meets Ray Mears. Not preachy just a slice of life on this Little Rock. 😂
A very big thank you to you Simon, you’ve helped to keep us all sane during this ‘weird year’.
Happy New Year.
Nice iron skillet. Thank you for your time in the Woods. 👏👏👏⛺️
The evening has been saved 😉

Enjoying your channel. You inspire me to get out in the woods more.
Cheers

“I’m in!” (Something like that!). You deserve every sub Simon. Now I have to go cook some black pudding and eggs! Yummy!!
I'm in. It'd go well with the Wilderness Chef book I got for Christmas.
“I’m in” We’re enjoying your tips and tricks.. being a family of five from the great Northern Maine woods.. the kids can’t get enough of your shows.. Thanks for what you do!!!
I'm in mate great videos

I am fascinated by the beautiful scenery you project.
We will continue to have great camps‼️
Thanks for bringing me along Simon, and for giving all of us some escapism. Happy New Year. I'm in.

lucky bugger , since covid even my beloved Dartmoor has become packed with people.........
"I'm in" Great work as usual mate. Gutted I live in a city, just hard to get out there!
Simon, thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos, I am very ill at the moment with type one diabetes and epilepsy and registered blind, although I can still see a bit in one eye, I also have kidney failure and anaemia and am now waiting for a kidney and pancreas transplant, as you can imagine it has limited what I can do substantially, however you have been a great encouragement and inspiration and I have set up a tarp shelter on the trees at my parents farm and am doing some foraging and cooking etc there, it may not be out in the woods but it’s as close as I can get atm, I was inspired to do this by your back yard videos 🙏🏻👍 thanks again and God bless
"I'm in", greetings from Ålands Islands, Finland.
I am in
I was eating that omelette with you. That woodland looks like Thetford Chase. Half expected Dad’s Army to turn up😁
“I’m in!” But as I live in the US, if chosen could you find a good local bloke in need who would appreciate and use the kit in my place?! Such a well deserved following for your tireless candor, honesty and authenticity. Keep it up. 👍🏻👍🏻

Why can't it be sent to the US?
@@charmainegentz9543 maybe it can but then the cost of shipping (cast iron remember!) would obviate the point of the giveaway which is to thank his supporters for the support we give him. It’s not supposed to cost him extra money!
@@waynewanderer thanks for the well wishes but I’ll leave it to Simon to determine who needs it and besides it’s not like I’ve won anything yet!
I need to confess: Im getting a lot of merit points for amazing camp cooking at the moment. The range and variety of the ingredients and the general menu has been noticed by my better half. She knows I watch your channel, but I haven't completely come clean about where all this creativity is coming from.
"I'm in mate" would love either of the three kits. Well done on cracking 100K subs.
“I’m in” any chance of seeing more Land Rover camp content 👀
Happy New year to you Simon hope all goes well this year
Hi Simon. Thanks for all the great videos, i realy enjoy everyone. So, i am in. Best regards Espen, Norway
I’m in. I don’t even like black pudding, but could be tempted, nothing better than a
stealthy lunch!
Careful - once you've had black... Pudding... You'll never go back
Congrats on the 💯k. 👍
“I’m in, or something like that” 🍄🍳 🏕, this and Kent survival are the two best channels
100% agree with you there

I'm in - just been talking about getting a twig stove so this could be perfect timing...!
"I'm in" Love the videos
One suggestion I have is that after every food video where you make something you could leave a honest score of 10 rating the food you have eaten.
"I'm in"
Thanks for making lockdown bearable.
this was an extremely generous giveaway Simon. Well done your a true gentleman and scholar. Congrats on such a great channel
Simon, where can I get that interestingly shaped cast iron pan?
In the USA we call it a fajita skillet. I got mine at Manards
i"m in. never had a twig stove, but would fit nicely in the canoe
ha,i would be carefull with a twig stove in the canoe!
@@patrickj8984 would certainly warm things up if I had an alloy boat though....

Good point... Three cast iron skillets!
