    Anybody looking to improve their knowledge of Britain during the Roman times or 1970's pop music will find this channel an absolute game changer. I feel like you are filling in all those missing holes in my education. Thanks Andy. Beautiful spot for a camp as well.

      Yes. It’s all facts as well. UA-cam is technically the internet so if it’s on the internet it has to be true 😂 😂
      Great little camp spot. Dead easy to get to as well for those “not feeling great” camps

    Excellent vid loved it. Good tent choice it was needed. What I like is no moaning about yt money, no product pushing, no E begging, just having fun on a hill in a tent. Its what it should be.

Haven't been in the cheviots in years even though I'm just down the road, can see it from the top of sheriff hill in gateshead and always say , be there soon but never get there , hopefully in the new year

    • @AndyWardle

      You should head up. So many places and nice and quiet. Usually. Car camping is a cold thing this time of year. My tip is get a good quilt. Like the one of your bed. It’s a good way to get out though. Hope you manage. Atb 👍

      😂 yeah. My top tip is watch the weather forecast. Up there exposed like that it changes dramatically very quickly. Glad I had the right tent on this occasion. My poor summer tent would’ve died in that. The part I didn’t film was 40-50mph gusts like. 👍
