    Hello Brendon, as a Peterboroughian you couldn’t have picked a worse area to spend the night, you might have found it better closer to the river. Back in the day it was a nice city but us locals all know why it has seriously gone downhill (but you are not allowed to say out loud) love the vids.

    Hi Brendan, often sleep in my van in cold temperatures over the last few years. Best advice I can give you is to get a cheap polystyrene type yoga mat thing, about a fiver, put it under your bed mattress in van stops all the drafts from underneath and retains your body heat. I’ve also found that when you don’t want to risk the noise of the diesel heater it works alright to plug small fan heater or ceramic one into jackery. I often just sleep on residential streets and avoid car parks.
    Thanks as always for the quality content

    As a current Peterborough resident I admit it's not the best but you managed to stumble and stay in one of the worst areas of it 😂 you went the wrong way out of the carpark for food. Had you gone the other way town centre was 5 mins walk and is much nicer (not perfect but not a dodgy estate 😂😂).
    Oh and a cathedral is also not the marking of a city. It's highly common for a city to have one but there are a few examples of cities without them and also towns with cathedrals.
    Glad you survived but next time, in any city, research the areas to avoid and you might have a better time 😁

    Those spots, where they meet in cars, driving up and down with lights on full blast, aren't too bad, at least they're not bothering me, when I keep my lights off. (Well, they're not interested in a woman, anyway...) Nicer spots in cities can be found near small churches in the suburbs, they mostly have car parks, which are quiet for the night. Also sports facilities offer parking spots. My last trip to the UK was in 2019, so I was a bit shocked to find in January 2024 so many parking lots charge for parking, even out in the woods. What's going on over there? Regards from Germany.

    The soupy curry is for putting the rice in to soak up. I used to cook alot of Chinese food. Your not gonna believe where I got the best darn Chinese cookbook ever.... I got it at the largest bookshop in London!!!(I live in the USA) long story short...back in the 80s I lived in Switzerland ( dual citizenship usa and Switzerland born in the usa) we visited London. My goal? Chinese cookbook. Very expensive in Switzerland. Went to the largest bookshop in London, I just couldn't seem to find the right cookbook, all of a sudden, as if a ghost took me by the hand...took me to the Elevator, down to he basement....stacks of books all over the place, and this " ghost" took me purposefully to a certain stack of books.....and lo....on the very Top of the stack,was the very Chinese cookbook I wanted....best one ever......I never saw the ghost,only felt it's presence....
