Liked before I watched. Now I’ll watch.
Thank you for your uploads.
Absolutely stunning views, very enjoyable video. Cheers Sandy.
Looking a bit on the chilly side now, but an inspiring landscape to venture into during winter.
Bill Hambelton . Chilly can be an understatement, but equally tropical on a great day . I walk it daily .
SORRY TO ALL FOR THE MIDDLE FINGER! I had hoped that by doing this Sandy would have removed the silliness with my glasses/eyes... Oh well, I cant control his editing 😞
That said, take out this 3 seconds Sandy and this is a superb video. I maybe biased as I was there 👍🏻😉
LOL Ant the Magnify clip hs got to go in. It makes the video complete:) I hope your going to have a great week off work. Enjoy whatever you do
Sandy
bit of banter.
@ JACOB TAYLOR - Indeed, as long as nobody gets offended 🙂
Haha, Ant when you did that thing with your glasses you looked like " Bubbles" from The Trailer Park boys on Netflix ..that will definitely stop you doing it again and maybe Rhialobran & Sandy were Julian and Ricky Lol 😂 xxxShaz
Amazing views and heritage Sandy. Enjoyed seeing a proper functioning old phone box. Ill check out Simons story.
Your fortunate to live in such a historic and beautiful country. All the best.
Your a man with so much knowledge .great stuff.👍
Fantastic Adventure. Thank you, Sandy. I've been walking on Dartmoor for more than 35years. Not been there this year. Hoping to get up there around Christmas, if the weather isn't too harsh.
Wonderfull vdeo full f nostalgic memories,really nice views.I did some A Level learning in that area with The Honorable Bob Hicks back in the late 60's. Thankyou for the showing.
Another great video. Windmill Hill at Avebury is well worth a visit. It always gets overlooked but it’s a fabulous 2 mile walk out of the village
I know of it
Another great adventure Sandy. again beautiful countryside. always enjoy going on these trips with you and your Bud's. Amazing on the language indicator from Jinx, it has the same meaning world wide !. seems to transcend all language bearers And projects the same meaning worldwide!. fascinating!. Like few others and being an amateur op. noticed the tower also. ok Sandy tnx agn es 73 hp to wk u on cw sum dy!. de Ellis WA1RKS.
Yet another thoroughly enjoyable video Sandy. Loved the intro, scenery & seeing you guys together. Atb
The place to go to get away from the crowds, looks like still 'almost' possible.
Thanks for sharing Sandy, I spent many happy hours on Dartmoor in my younger days, it's a beautiful place for sure & you were so fortunate with good weather.
atvb t ..
Tadpole . Lucky me ..I live there and walk it daily .
That was a brilliant little film WW, the atmosphere was so well captured I almost felt I was there with you.
My film could take a day or two to edit out the gibberish, partly mine and mostly you and Ant. I had a great time though, you two are good company...for idiots. ;)
LOL The gibberish yeah but no but but but. It was a great adventure despite being late and setting up in the dark. The three Musketeers re unite:)
looked a familiar route :)
@@KentSurvival beginning to be able to do it in my sleep now, mind you I enjoyed that camp over the quarry twas a good night :)
I camped at that quarry for my 40th Sandy! nice video, really atmospheric. .
A Nice place to celebrate your birthday
@@WiltshireMan it was .. we just had a camp put and cook up... really excited about your new bike by the way. ..atb John,
Great video again. Weather far better than here (murky, wet and cold). Tnx es 73s’
Thank you for making such a magical video of your adventure in Dartmoor Sandy ....now I'm off to watch Rhialobran and Ants video🙏xxxShaz /|\
Thanks Shaz. It was rather cold but stunning views
What a fab location to go hiking and camping. Great views and that quarry is amazing. Thanks for uploading. PS I was sent here from Paul Mesners new video.
Very nice, I'll make it down there one day.
Wish-list for your video on real stone circles: The Sanctuary/Woodhenge, West Kennet Long Barrow, Silbury Hill, West Kennet Avenue, Avebury circle not forgetting the Red Lion!
I can do all that Steve:)
@@WiltshireMan good to hear, it's been a while since I've done that walk. I once spent a very nice night in West Kennet long barrow at a solstice party. My one and probably only party in a tomb. :D
Nice one Sandy :-)
Thanks Dave
Beautiful countryside, it looks like you are going to Mordor! Lol
Brian Outdoors when they went to the lake in the quarry I thought, “Don’t disturb the water “ lol
Nice to see landscape with water, a bit tough to find here at the moment. Wonderful scenery and a real sense of history. Thanks Sandy.
more people than ponies. You should go somewhere quiet. Ho Ho. Lovly view's matey.
Hi you intrepid trio, been watching Sandys videos for a long time now. Never made a comment before, so i think its about time! Sandy must be one of the most interesting people i have ever watched! So many facets to his life and so calming in his way of delivering his description of what he is doing at that particular time. Nice friendship with Ant and Simon too. Plus a lot of other folk too, i hasten to add !!! Keep them coming Sandy !!! All the best Chris.
Ah Thankyou Chris. Life has been quite varied for me over the years so I count myself fortunate to have had the experiences. Now as I get older the plan is to cram as much adventure in as I can until the inevitable happens!!! Old age! But thats some way off still:))
@@WiltshireMan Mine has already arrived Sandy !!! Chris
Enjoying all your treks around Dartmoor! By the way...visited the moor last week and now I’m hooked on it. Will be going back to hopefully stay at nuns cottage with any luck! I did do fox torr this time round and was a bad boy as I purposely strayed off the path into the mire and did get a leg stuck! Lol! However I quite easily pulled myself out and had a good laugh about it! And although having great respect for the mire I felt comfortable traversing and exploring it! I had my trusty walking stick! I also met some friendly hounds there too! Lol! Thank you Wiltshire man 👍🏼
Hi Sandy, how do you edit your videos. I want to make videos in my part of Wiltshire but I haven't a clue about editing and putting together different clips. Cheers.
Good post...I stopped at the phone box today with my bike to prepare for the descent to Merrivale...I am lucky enough to live nearby.......Would that I were tough enough to wild camp tho'.....well done lads. It's my theory that the standing stone @ 14:40 is a Bronze Age transmitter just like the BBC transmitter which you can see from it......
I was in Zennor last weekend, thought to myself then must take Sandy and Ant down and do the West Penwith Moor/coast path.
I met you through cutlery, my great passion, and the classic Jacklore, my dream of consumption. And we arrived at your You Tube channel, where I can see (and participate in adventures) your wonderful country through your lens. These are fantastic videos and great adventures
Love the pool at 9:10 really magical. You all looked pretty cold in this one, I couldn't do it, so well done. I love standing stones/stone circles, so will be looking forward to your trips out on Chug, it might be out of your way, but the DEVIL'S QUOITS OX29 5BB are worth a look at, as is ROLLRIGHT. Take care.
Thanks Bry. I have walked past rollright but never saw them. I will go soon and pay them a visit. Never heard of Devils Quoits. Will google about it...Sometime later... I have just done some research and looks very interesting Bry. It's about an hours Chug away from here. I think I'll take a look at it and bring my drone with me
Another corker Sandy very atmospheric. Keep up the good work. All the very best. Tony
All is well with the world when we can share an intrepid trio adventure. The footage Sandy of you following Simon at 3mins 18secs onwards is so atmospheric and quintessential Dartmoor. Keep Simon out of Wiltshire 😳 👍😊
LOL He has already been to Wiltshire at least once!
Bjorn sent me. Beautiful scenery, nice camera work. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Great video! I live near by and have painted that phonebox near Pricetown you passed by :)
your friends are very disrespectful off you get rid sandy, no all,s sorry but i,m right
Wonderful place Sandy and good company to share it. All the best.
bril vid! beaut views! the whole thing has a real "we are there with you" feel 😊
btw those ponies werent wild... they were livid! lol seriously tho, they were lovely!
great watch while eating brekkie 😊
Bit of luck those phone box things might catch on - you never know : - )
Nah. they will have a phone box they can carry around in their pockets
They could put wheels on them - that would make them mobile 👍
Now there's a thought:)
Very nice trip! I really like this video, Sandy!
Pleasant bimble about that Sandy with two fine chaps. Wiltshire and Dartmoor both do ancient really well. Nice conditions for you guys for a change. Mark
Thats for sure Mark. Ancient landscapes both:) Hope your keeping well and warm
@@WiltshireMan Indeed sir! I am busy building for the future Sandy as you do and staying healthy. Have a great day over there....
Enjoyable video Sandy keep em coming please
Nice one Sandy. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing your adventure!
Tell your mate to not pick up litter then have the ill manners to chuck back down again! Litter is bad enough chucked in the first place, but to throw it down a second time instead of disposing of it responsibly is just ridiculous
Trust me, no rubbish was left on the moors other than used coffee grounds and these are biodegradable. I love our planet and I am an absolute pain in the arse when it comes to leaving no trace.
Great video! Such beautiful rock features! Bjorn mentioned how good your videos are so I came to check you out. Glad I did.
Thanks Michael and thanks to Bjorn too
Great video Sandy really well edited!
Three Musketeers re-unite, thank goodness you didn't say the lads from "Last of the Summer Wine", Sandy :) Most enjoyable video, Thanks for sharing with us, would like to see the un-edited versions of this trip, bet it would be superb :) Cheers..Les
Really good video Sandy as always....
I'd love to tag along with a metal detector.
Beautifully edited film Sandy, thanks for taking us along, I think that's the quarry that a former SAS celebrity taught another celeb how to absail head first off the cliff, a great place indeed. Alb, Harry
Cracking video Sandy . We found Foggingtor this summer and loved it . Hopefully camp there next year . Off to watch Prisoner 365 hopefully.
Excellent. You three make an ideal team. Better than the Top Gear clowns.
Noel
LOL Thanks Noel. There is a 4th Musketeer you know:)
Hi Sandy I have a question for you about Joe. I have seen a vid or got notifications for some time now. I have even tried searching and nothing. So then searched my subscriptions and he is not there. So went to a vid of yours I knew had a link to his channel, and it doesn't work. So do you know what has happened to him or his channel? I hope it isn't bad news and he's just having a break or something. ATB from sunny Queensland.
Joe has deleted his channel for personal reasons. He may come back in the future
@@WiltshireMan thanks Sandy, I hope he does and that he's alright. Thank you again.
Canny crack you take care marra
What a great video, sometimes when things don't go to plan or the unexpected happens, it can produce some truely amazing results. Would love to have been out there with you, what a place. Dartmoor is on my list for next year, it looks truely magical!
Hi Sandy, what's happened to your buddy hooped bivy wild camper???
He deleted his channel for personal reasons
That Kings Tor would make a good point for a station activation. I went to Avebury Stone circle and West Kennet Long Barrow as a kid at school back in the early 80's
Well done to the Three Musketeers for a fun and informative video. Looking forward to your tours of the megaliths of Wiltshire - you have some absolute wonders over there! No megaliths round my way but we do have a great bronze age site with barrows. Good to see you out there.
Great video sandy 👍
Epic sir ...so in awe
Very enjoyable - I tracked it on the map and there were some interesting sites and sights. "Chug" is going to get you around the historical sites of Wiltshire much easier than a car I bet. Cheers Sandy.
Always funny listening to the quips and wisecracking 😃
Also walking somewhere in the dark is fun too, asuming one knows where he is going and doesn't end up lost 😅
Fascinated to learn that the tower bridge and embankment stone was quarried in Dartmoor. There's history everywhere you go.
Thank you.
Thank you The Three Musketeers Haha.
You guys should check out the Duddo stones in North Northumberland.
Nice one!
Picture and sound is great, also you keep it very entertaining.
Thankyou
It's always a good trip when you 3 get together. Most enjoyable. Thanks, Sandy. 🙂👍
I heard you say ‘Things hadn’t gone to plan’, then I heard the Jinx’s voice and then I knew why.
Wow, that old quarry looks beautiful.. possible fly/camp destination? Good to see you three again.
When the weather is right I bet it's a great place to fly/camp Paul
take the radio with you please.
Thank you for another great video it was very enjoyable 🙂
Love that quarry beautiful
It sure was Bee:)
A lovely video Sandy !! Thank you always for taking us along🙂 Brilliant captures on the landscapes, valleys, and overall countryside... Loved the view at the “quarry” 🙌 You said stunning, I said beautiful,,,, then you said beautiful - We had the same reaction on that !! W😳W!! 😊😁 Do you think the standing stone at small stone circle had a face on it, to me it seemed so at one point 🤔 A vast history on this vid, thank you for sharing, having a great night, sleep well!! 🙂🙂
Can't say I noticed a face on the standing stone Amante but the whole place has a stark beauty
Great scenery & I enjoyed watching your adventure sandy. At my time of watching, I’m struggling to understand how this video has attracted 9 thumbs down. I’ve never been to Dartmoor & may never make it myself in this life time, so thank you for sharing. That’s my reasons for a thumbs up.👍
There's some funny folk out there:)
There's a similar quarry at Hay Tor that's been planted with water Lillies and bull rushes.
I went there in July it was spectacular, alive with dragon flies, swallows and song birds - reminded me of a Japanese garden, well worth a visit on a summer's day.
Andy Jarman . Best experienced on a quiet week day though ...avoiding revellers. I live there .
enjoyed it Sandy , , , a nice bit of history , , splendid scenery : - )
Nice camp out sandy. You didn’t fancy dunking the junk at 9:20 then 😉😂. Glad to see your well.
LOL you've been watching haze:)
Nice to meet you up on great mis on Saturday, disappointed i did not make the final edit ha ha I must admit i had not seen your videos before, but my friend James had (the one in the hotel!!!), i have now subscrbbed!!!!!!
Hi Roger. Was that you we met in the dark?
Wiltshire Man Yes it was, we did met briefly in the morning, did you find it very cold in the night? Or get woken up by the kids in the morning?
I was quite warm. Slept fairly well. I had a RAB 700 ascent sleeping bag which is rated for colder temps. I was awake by the time the children were around
Wiltshire Man I was only using a BERGHAUS Transition 200C (comfort rating of 5deg) and was ok when I got in the bag it’s a jumper, I was impressed with the therma mat and the heat reflection it gave (first time I have used it in anger) I was looking at the tab 900 have you ever used it?
Hi Roger. No I've not used the 900. I think you'll find it a bit overkill for the UK unless your going up Everest
No wild swimming then. Regards Henry.
You must be jokin:)
Traffic jam... you get that when out with the jinx..
Yes subbed to both them stange people
Thanks for another nice upload
A tad more than a traffic jam. Accident happened on M5 near Weston-super-Mare at 6am between a lorry and a car. Likely a fatality as the motorway did not reopen until gone 3pm.
We appreciate your Sub 👍🏻😉
LOL Yes Ant and Si are "Strange people" But Good people:)
@@mountains_and_moors oh kak..
Thanks for the trip, Sandy. Ghosts of antiquity must assuredly whisper to your tent at night. The backstories are intriguing.
There is a lot of history upon the moor Larry
cracking vid, nice to see you down on my patch, that area round merrivale is lovely, one of my fav's, looking forward to checking Simons vid out..ATB WJ
Thanks Jay. I would say it's one of my favourite parts of the moor so far
Wiltshire Man . Ahhh, you need to visit Wistmans wood then ...then decide upon your favourite. I live very local to these areas of Dartmoor and walk it weekly if not daily .
Another great watch. Thanks Sandy
Enjoyed this video bro. All the best
Dartmoor looks amazing. WOW.
Fantastic area. Reminds me on "The Hound of the Baskervilles".😉
Arnd Marx . That would be Hound Tor near Manaton . I walk there daily
And who’s taking a leak near the video start !! Lol nature calls 🤪
Nobody
Love Dartmoor, it truly is a beautiful magical place to be.
Neanderthal Outdoors . Yes indeed it is ...I walk it daily .
It would have been better if you had gone alone.
LOL But they are my friends:)
Great place to go and see, for some reason I like it a lot more nowadays. Thanks for sharing.
Atleast your pack can be somewhat lighter now Oz
@@WiltshireMan Ha-ha great way of looking at it. Thanks.
Beautiful setting mate.
Beautiful.
So now I a curious! Do you have a link to the Phone Booth video?
There's a link in the description box to simons channel
Wiltshire Man I went there but could not find. I searched as well. I will keep looking - thanks. Always enjoy your journeys!!
What is a “tor”? I tried to look it up, but all I could find is some kind of software by that name.
Look up Tor (rock formation) on Wikipedia, lots of info there.
..A Tor is a group of Rocks which stands on a high Ridge , usually associated with medieval times....
bristol , thanks.
Green Steve , thanks.
What was the aerial on top of the rocks where you camped
That's a flag pole, red flag and red light means live firing on the ranges behind the tor and there is no admittance.
rhialobran thought it was sandy,s but wondered why he did not mention it cheers
Nice vid lads, even if Ant was in it! Just by way of note, the Royal Marines swim in that quarry to buildup their resilience to cold water! Glad you filtered your water now eh?! Reds..Cam
How rude big fella. Hope your doing well Cam 😉
@@mountains_and_moors It may have been rude, but he has a point.
