I couldn't think of a better way to spend Xmas day. I'd love a permission place to run and hide away from, hopefully I'll find one eventually here. Gonna look at that speaker/lantern as that sounded incredible! Hope you and Tris have a great 2023 and look forward to more videos. All the best, Martin.
Hi Martin, it's great having the woods to escape too. What happened with 12 monkeys farm? Can you not get up there for a few days? ATB for the new year mate! 🍺
@@Adventure-Outdoors 12 monkeys is there but he's doing the whole place up so no longer really convenient for bushcraft stuff. I can still visit for a break though just not the camping stuff I want to do. I'll find something eventually, just need to keep looking and asking. Hopefully back up in the Pyrenees soon for some winter camps and hikes and all being well, get a car this year so I can have a lot more flexibility. Hope the beers went down well and stay safe 😂💥🍻
Health and happiness to you both good luck for 2023 and thanks 👍🏴
Just watched this Ben, fair play to you two for knocking up a better Christmas dinner on a campfire than some people can manage to make in a kitchen!
I hid in the woods too, on the shores of a loch you have canoe camped on a couple of times. Xmas eve drive up & a few days/nights by the fire, good food, a few beers & total silence.
Thanks for sharing.
What an excellent way to spend Christmas. Thanks for sharing your videos over 2022. Happy New Year for 2023
All the best for next year. Thanks for all the videos. Much appreciated and enjoyed
Cheers Steve, ATB for 2023. Hope you've got a good stash of ales in for tonight 👍🍺
HAPPY NEW YEAR Ben Tris ! Thank you for sharing your adventures. .. look forward to more in 2023 👍
Happy new year , like your video, really enjoyable
Class video Ben,really enjoyed.xmas dinner looked great.a shed in the woods with all the facilities around,doesn’t get better,im a bit jealous mate 😊.lot of preparation for the short stay but well worth it.looked like you had a great time.nice selection of beers also.well done mate,best wishes to you and Tris.happy new year.👍
Happy New Year to you both.
All the best for 2023.
I suspect your concerns about needing fire wood to heat your home given the likelihood of continuing energy crisis is spot on.
So getting a shed load on board sounds sensible.
Semper paratus.
:)
Have had a flex tail for a few years now got it off kick starter so probably long term test positive. I inflate my fat boy ex ped mega mat. Also super handy for giving the camp fire a boost. Defo like this smaller version. Nice first look thanks!
Brilliant as always guys, love your vids.. what a superb little lantern, really good idea to combine it all together and dose look sturdy. I actually watched this video on the 1st of January .. the same day I started my month of sobriety! So not the best to be watching something with soo many beer reviews, but I managed to resist the urge. Yes happy new year and I'm looking forward to see what 2023 brings to your Chanel 👍Atb Russ
Another great video guys as usual, glad to see you’re still getting some use out of the knife. When I saw that fire you were building I thought for a moment you were going to do a little walk over the coals 😉 have a great new year guys
Cheers Tony, the knife is great, it's had plenty of use and it's still razor sharp. The fire did resemble an Indian funeral pyre, the heat it gave off was unreal 😂. ATB mate.
Hi Ben & tris 🤔 Are you taking bookings for Christmas Dinner,s 🙌 I tell ya what that's the best way I've seen to celebrate Christmas 👏👏👏👏 Ben you never showed any footage of you dancing in the moonlight 🤭 wishing you both a happy new year 🍻 can't wait for 2023,s video's 👌👍
Cheers Martin, yeah it was good to escape for a few days! There was actually some footage of me playing air guitar to AC/DC but it didn't make the cut 😂. ATB mate 👍
Hi Ben & Tris, thanks for another trip into your world.
Canny looking Christmas lunch considering you cooked it outside on an open fire.
Happy Xmas and have a fabulous 2023 and keep making your videos, they are great!
Best wishes from southern Catalunya.
@@pauldarbishire7226 I wish mate, everyone else around here has 😂. Been busy doing jobs in the house but there's light at the end of the tunnel so hopefully we'll be back out doing something or other soon!
Happy new year you two l have really enjoyed your channel this year and look forward to seeing you next year you have the classiest channel out there
A very happy new year to you both! As always a really enjoyable watch and very envious of the opportunity to get away from it all over Christmas. Look forward to seeing more videos in the New Year - many thanks for all the content. Cheers Pete
Best wishes to you both and I thought your dinner looked ok to me 😊 Now that's the way I would spend Christmas if I was allowed...!🎄 Not tucked up in bed with the winter lurgy for days like I was this year.... 🤒😷🤧😪 Look forward to more, keep the beer reviews coming 👍🏻🍺 Cheers, Paul 🙏🏻
Cheers Paul, hope you’ve got over the bug! ATB for the new year mate 👍
Just ordered the Fjallraven abisko shape 3 mate. PALACE!
Nice one mate, give me a shout if you're heading out anytime soon and I'll try and get away. Haven't been out for ages.
@Adventure-Outdoors will do mate. Al mentioned March to me so that might be the next one for me like.
We're out next week Ben, 8th February. We're thinking about camping up on Sail. Feel free to come along if you fancy it 👍
@@LeesOutdoorOdyssey Hi mate, nice one. I was planning to head out on the 7th as the weather looks good, might see if I can get out for another night and I'll meet you. Looks a bit blustery for the 8th at the moment, don't want to kill yr Fjallraven tent on it's first mission!
Okay mate just let us know. We haven't settled on a location yet. Hahaha yeah I don't want it blowing away on its first outing.
Have you gotten lost in the woods somewhere? :-)
Hi mate, sort of! 😂 Had a few jobs to do in the house which took most of January, plus I've got a shelter project in the woods going on and the rest of my spare time has been spent re-building my old touring cycle for the summer. I have packed my bag a couple of times but the weather has been crap so I bottled it. Hows it going over your way? Any plans to head up into the mountains?
@@Adventure-Outdoors hi Ben. Good to know you're keeping busy. The bike building sounds interesting, love a bit of bike touring! As for me, I've mainly just been upgrading my winter gear so now have an extherm and the thermostat sleeping bag that the Mat can attach to, so almost fully 'wintered up' now. Lost my mojo recently but I'll be back out soon enough I'm sure. Hope you're both well mate! Martin.
Past 12 o’clock is, absolutely beer o’clock 😁
Brilliant idea, escaping the festive chaos and a great place to do it.
