  • This week i was back out on the canoe! Shout to Tinks Outdoors for the heads up on the spot! its an old brick bridge and it made the perfect riverside wildcamping spot!
    Thanks so much for watching my videos i really appreciate it and love reading through all the comments.
    I dropped my camera to the bottom of the river which has made it unusable so apologies for this video being filmed off my phone!
    I was so excited to get back out on the canoe and to sit round the campfire on the evening cooking some homemade dirty fries which turned out lovely !
    In December i will be Walking the length of East Anglia over 7-10 days from Blakeney point (most Northern point of East Anglia) to Southend (most southern point of East Anglia. I will be wild camping on the streets or trees every night along my journey. I'm raising money for the Helping Homeless Veterans UK Charity- www.hhvuk.org
    Thankyou so much to everyone who's donated im so close to hitting the target but i reckon we can smash it !!

    If you ever drop electric device's in water, take the battery out immediately and never try to turn it on as it might fry the internals. Leave it to dry naturally, inside an airing cupboard is a good place as its warm, but not too hot that it'll damage the device. Also placing loads of silica gel packets with it is good too.

Plenty of land to camp on, surrounded by State Forest, a stream flowing through with nice clean water for drinking, washing & swimming. Biggest difference being at Xmas it's usually pretty bloody warm & so the beer would need to be chilled & tossed in an Esky. Otherwise identical ;-)
