- I build a bushcraft shelter using a fallen tree but the rain is just too much to handle. - Raised bed, Fire reflector, Fatwood torch and campfire cooking.

As an ex jungle soldier from the Aussie Army may I give you a tip? Don't wear a tight raincoat. It overheats and restricts you. It soon lets the wet through, both as rain and sweat. It doesn't keep your pack or sleeping gear dry. Rather sling a light, wide, plastic sheet like a cloak over your back and fasten it around your neck. This leaves your arms free and lets your body breathe. It also keeps your gear nice and dry. It can later be used to cover stuff at your camp that you need to leave outside your shelter. Cheers.
Yeah travel light.Dont leave the plug at home for the kitchen sink.Shame to here about soft boys in the army maybe pommys snuck in.Tip put salt dubbin on your boots minimise leaches
Great advice!
Thank you
I do agree with you… this guy does “ luxury “ bus craft… “ I’ll go home if it rains!” 😂😂😂😂
@@silvo-singsthat was funny but least he was honest about it. He also uses a chainsaw when needed, on camera not like some or probably most of them.
I suffer anxiety and depression. Your videos are so wonderfully relaxing to watch. So glad I found you on here x
One think i love about you videos Andy (along with others like Simon and Mark) is that you dont try to hide your mistakes or problems. It adds an element of 'realness' and hepps others, like myself, to learn and not expect perfection when we try to emulate you. Thank you for your honesty! 👍
As I've written under other of your video's, I'm one of thousands of frequent and older viewers. I find your videos both informative and relaxing. I love to sit back every night and watch your videos before bed.
May I propose an evening chat held on UA-cam sometimes between you, and we fans? A moment to reflect on your videos, answer questions and simply say hello?
I'd also like to propose a group for some of us called "grannies for Andy!" This group consisting of older gals who can't camp as you do but love that you do!
Seriously, thank you for the videos. I very much enjoy them.
I’m 75 and am ready for a camping trip any day. Just helpful to have someone fit enough to help with the baggage😅. Otherwise I watch camping videos every night for hours on end. It’s addictive. I can almost smell the campfire and the steak on the charcoal grill. Then I go to sleep happy.
Hi Andy, don’t stress about us when your videos don’t go to plan. It doesn’t bother us whatsoever, we’re grateful with whatever you produce. Keep up the amazing work! Love from Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺🐨🍻
And Happy Birthday for last week! Hope you had a wonderful time celebrating 🥳🎉🍻
true😊💚
Well said.
Good point shit happens 😅
It’s all about the adventure 👍
It's crazy that I like watching a video of somebody camping.
Yes there are thousands of us…❤
I don’t like camping, but love to watch this channel.
Andy you are a professional mate and you definitely know what you are doing 👍
I love the honesty. Please never stop telling the truth.
There's nothing like persistent English rain running down your back😂🌧️🌧️ I'm in 👍🏻
Seems to rain on every camping trip
@@maureengurnick3773 We get alot of rain in England
LIKE THE WAY THESE 2 VIDEOS START & END WITH YOUR HOOD UP ON YOUR COAT
Agree w u on the ribeye--my fav!
I'm in. Cheers Andy, I i hope you had a lovely birthday 🎉❤🎉
I'm in.
Looks a really nice knife.
Great video as always Andy.
I've got ADHD and I struggle to get settled down at night, but when I see you've released a video it goes on to finish about 10.30 and I go to bed and go straight to sleep! Thank you for your content may it continue to enable an adhder to sleep at night! Also.... I'm in!
Hey Andy.
I enjoy watching your videos. I’m a grandma from Manchester UK. I like the different kits/set ups you take for different conditions. I pretend to myself I could do what you’re doing - yeah right.
Simply very pleasant to watch.
Cheers.
I'd watch a grandma from Manchester go camping! 🏕️🥾💪♀️
I don't know how old you are grandma, but, Im a great grandaddy aged 66 and I still go wild camping. Usually with a hammock, because the sleep is better than in a tent or tarp and sleeping on the ground. Try it during te day first, with a tarpaulin, a camping chair and a small stove to make tea on and carry sandwiches in a back pack. Enjoy. xx
I'm a grandma from Manchester too, and I go wild camping 😀 give it a go!!
I just ordered a knife about an hour before seeing this. I might have gone with a BPS. Such is life.
I just want to say thank you Andy for all of your videos. You make my life better just by watching you ❤ Bless you
I'm in. Kind of a funny story actually, my cat loves watching your videos with me. She comes and stares at my laptop and follows you on screen. Bird sounds, leaves rustling and such are a great bonus but I think she's just very interested in learning 😅🤣 I'm scared that if she ever gets lost, she won't come back home because she learned from you how to start a fire, make shelter and prepare food. Love from Poland ☺
🤣🤣🤣Hilarious! Cat Camping! 😂😂😂
Love the channel, started watching about 6 months ago and camped out for the first time in over 30 years. Bought some basic bushcraft equipment and planning to give it a go myself. Thanks for getting me interested in the outdoors again.

Great to see the knives working so well! I'm in :-)

Hey Andy, I'm in! I was born loving tents and camping tech. Thanks for all the great videos. Cheers
I'm in. Great to support the Ukraine
I’m in, Andy! Love Ukrainian products and try to support them whenever I can! 🇺🇦
Hi from sunny QLD Australia. My husband and I stumbled across your channel a couple of weeks ago and since then we have started binge watching your channel!
I must say we’re quite addicted to not only your camping tests but mainly your nature as a person . We thoroughly enjoy every part : the set up, the cooking, the everything but mainly how you take everything in your stride in such a chilled fashion.
I think you’re bloody brilliant , entertaining, and educational.
You need to come to Sunny QLD and experience our beautiful land, be sure to bring Simon .
Me too.
Do you also watch Simon a Bloke in the woods in the UK and Chris Banman here in Australia?
Fellow Queenslander here! Completely agree with you. Love Andy's channel.
@@oldbloke204 certainly do. I was amazed at that strange harp like bush saw that he pulls out of the air. I looked over Simon’s videos from sbout 6 years ago and he had one on DIY from greenwood using nothing more than a hand auger thick bladed knives, some lines and some timber from the forest. I’m in awe, as I never thought you’d be able to put that together with so few tools.
QLD Brisbane crew ❤️
You bring back lovely memories of a natural property I stewarded with friends. I lived on it for 5 months and did many things like you do. Now said property is in trust for others to enjoy. My most memorable moment was when a beaver came right up to my tent one night to peek inside.
AMEN! Ribeye is the king of steaks!!! ❤
What do I love about this channel? The ambiance, peace, fires, food, and your unwavering positive attitude! You savour life and I’m here for it! Thanks, Andy!
Are you interviewing yourself ?
I completely agree!
So do I
You put that so well! Andy savors life - that’s what keeps me coming back. ❤
👍
I’m in! Great video as usual, and appreciate how you’re mutually supporting the good people of Ukraine ♥️👍
I'm in, as always lol . Highlight of my week. Along with Happy days van life.
Andy's "owww, eeer" always make me giggle 😂😂😂
I'm in! Love your channel I watch it to help me get to sleep I find it so soothing especially when you're camping out in the rain. A real tonic in this crazy hectic world!
I'm in! Another great video. I teach forest school to young people who are suffering anxiety and often mention your channel to my students. Informative and relaxing well done! Thanks mate.
I’m in! Hi Andy great video, you are notorious for forgetting things which always makes me smile. But you always turn it into a positive. Keep up the good work your video’s are always a joy to watch.
I just love the nervous giggle you do andy😅it tickles me everytime
Absolutely breathtaking! Nature truly is the best escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life."
I have just discovered you.... and I LOVE watching these before I go to bed.... they make me feel all cosy and relaxed!
I never ever thought I'd go camping.... but you may just sway me!!!! ❤
I'M IN! I found this channel randomly last weekend and have been addicted ever since. I literally fall asleep every night now to your videos. Your voice is soothing to me lol, and you seem like a genuinely all around good person. I've never been camping, but now wanna go so bad. Keep up the great videos. They're amazing.
I literally took up camping this year because of Andy and it’s even better than you’d imagine as long as you like being outdoors. 😊
@@steviec2595 that's awesome. It's too cold for my liking now but hopefully this coming summer I can make it happen.
I’m in ! Thanks Andy !
I'm in! ❤ Great Channel Andy we have watched for a long time
I'm in!
You reinvigorated my love and passion for camping after many years. Please don't underestimate the tremendous effect this has had on my mental health and well-being. You got me out of the rut was in and saved my life. I cannot thank you enough honestly 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is a beautiful comment. I hope he reads it soon. I'm glad you are feeling much better.
I'm in! Love that you have your permissions that allow you to try out all the bushcraft ideas, keep them coming Andy, hope you are well
I am in. I like the look of the knife. We do need to support our Ukrainian brother's and sisters.
Im in! Thanks as always for the great video Andy.
I'm in.
Nice one Andy, loving your stuff as always mate.
Cheers.
Mick.
I love your videos and your laid-back style. You come across so genuine, honest and decent. Wonderfully wholesome with a simple but awesomely enjoyable endeavor. It works perfectly. Keep them coming please mate because I love your company.
I really like that knife! I watch all your videos!
I'm in!! Rock & Roll!
I'm in! Thanks for all the lovely videos.
Thank you for sharing this. I'm having a bad pain flare up & this is a welcomed escape.. Your videos are the ultimate relaxation and escape (with added bushcraft knowledge thrown in).. You're a gem!!
I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now & I find them so calming, reminds me of my youth when I used to go camping.
I'm in! Love your channel, as an ex-scout this is so nice to watch!
I'm in (I'm Live in Canada, ex-patriot Brit from Wimbledon).... I have followed your channel for a few years and have learned a few things. I particularly like the food prep/cooking portions of your Video's. You're responsible for me purchasing an Opinel #8, a great little knife that's now in my EDC. My current camping knives are a Mora Companion and one that I made myself. I would love to add a BPS to my outdoor itinerary. (Just saying')
I’m in love with your camping videos…I used to love camping.The quiet,the sounds of nature…even the rain but not the midges here in Scotland. Keep up the good work,you make a lot of people very happy. X
I’M IN! I love watching all of your videos, Andy. I always learn so much from you. You’re a good teacher and the calmness in your voice is very soothing. Take care and stay safe. 😊
I'm in! My wife and I love your channel Andy! We watch every episode. Keep up the great content!
I'm in! Thanks Andy
I'm in! Another awesome video dude, keeping a current house bound due to long term illness guy sane with a fix of the outdoors. Keep the good stuff coming 👍
Get Well Soon !
Please get well soon!
I’m in ! Live in the states. Michigan. I’m paramedic and the only joy I get watching your videos when they come out. I go out on my off time , and learn so much. Not just about bush craft , but about cooking. My hat is off to you. Thank you so much, it helps me decompress.
😅I'm in😊 and love your channel
I'm in! Another informative and relaxing video. Thanks
Definitely….im in. Fantastic knife.
I’m in! Thanks for your awesome videos Andy. I have been really sick this year and oftentimes the only things I can watch are you, Simon, Shoestring Martha and the Korean camping ladies (Bongbong and PeachRim). I’m working really hard to get better so that I can continue our camping trips inspired by you all.
I'm in!
My partner and I are obsessed with your content and you've inspired us to get back out into nature and enjoy the absence of technology and busy cities! Thank you for making such great videos 😊
I'm in!!!
Love the channel, you're my daily evening watch 😂
Beautiful handle on the knife
✨ your wisdom shall remain as such 😌✨❤️🔥✨ thank you Kent ☄️👍💎 Shine on You crazy diamond 💎
Im in Andy, good to see nice stuff still being produced in ukraine 🇺🇦 and great all round support 👍🏻
I'm in!!
I'm IN. Been wanting one of those for ages and as you say, great to support a Ukrainian company!
God I love this channel. Probably the most relaxing channel I’ve found in ages. Such a breath of fresh air
I'm in! Thanks to you, Andy and BPS for your generosity.
I'm in. Thanks for all you do.
I totally agree with you Andy as ribeye steak is king of steaks
I'm in! Now's as good of a time as any to say your videos have been really just pleasant and comfortable to enjoy at night. It's kind of like shutting out the rest of the world for a while and just getting to exist. It's lovely.
I'm in, I love watching you cook , more than one of you recipes has met my kitchen, being disabled and housebound, your vlogs help me relive times I could getmout in the wild❤
I just love your videos, especially the hot tenting. But i look forward to all of them? Simon & Mark, especially you are always having a laph, carry on camping together . It's much more exciting than watching repeats on the TV. 😂....
I am in. Bill J. Chernin from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. Great video's.
I live in Tenerife, its 5-30 p.m., the sun is still shining and its 28 degree C. Your video reminds me of how crap UK weather is - its cheered me up no end, thanks
Personally, I love the rain ☔
I'm in thanks
I'm in
28 is to hot for me.
I’m more of a spring and autumn type of fellow
I luv the rain too.
If I had not been moving house and been in time for the draw I'd have said I'm in. I'll jst thank you for all your videos again and hope you have a great year. Thanks again Andy
I'm in. That torch idea is slick. I need to try that.
I'm in and thanks for the opportunity.
I'm in ! love your channel, it's been fascinating watching how you've developed your style over the years. Never miss an episode. Keep on Andy.
You know Andy for us tired old folks this seems like a lot of work for just one night. Now if I was having to do it for a week I would muddle my way through. You make it all look so easy and untiring so thanks for bringing us along so we can enjoy camping from an easy chair😂
I'm in! Just discovered your channel a few days ago and I've watched a dozen videos already! Love your content!
I'm in!
Love the torch construction! The knive is besutiful.
I'm in! Your channel not only teaches us about safe and responsible camping in the wild but the joy of being in the middle of nature away from the rat race is second to none. I've been gradually building my wild camping gear so when my son and granddaughter visit in the New Year, we will do some wild camping in Devon and Cornwall 🙏❤
Another brilliant one Andy, you made that camp look so homely , hate when it comes to the end, I could stay watching for hours. ☘
Me too
Cool that they are sponsoring your video, and this is an awesome test all this rain. I'm in if its not to late.
I'm in. Definitely could use that knife in March for my bushcraft outing.😮
Thanks Andy for amazing video enjoy watching you out Bushcraft and camping thanks Andy for sharing,
I'm in. I love bushcraft, wildcamping, and getting out in the wilds and countryside. Your channel is educational and relaxing.
I'm totally in!
Great looking knives. I'm in.
I’m in!
Starting to dip my toes back into camping and the outdoors. Your channel is so relaxing and had me yearning for the bush again.
Another brilliant camp Andy👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻I'm looking forward to the winter and watching you do some excellent hot tent camps👍🏻
I'm in
I'm in! thank you for all of you great videos
I always look forward to your firewood processing and beer drinking! What a joyous way to spend an evening in the woods!
I’m in.
I grew up camping and raised my kids the same way. Now days I have the pleasure of teaching my grandkids. Watching your videos helps me enjoy the woods when I can’t be outdoors myself.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us.
Keep up the amazing work.
Hi Andy, good to see you out again. Weather these last few weeks has been awful.
I'm in.
Take care. All the best.
Love your channel buddy. Very relaxing watch.
I'm in! Enjoy watching your videos, nice and chilled out viewing.
Great work Andy. Love you work.
You just keep better and better with your editing and photography. You were GREAT years ago but this is sublime!
The sound quality too. Often overlooked but the crackling of the fire, the sound of the rain and the general wildlife sounds are so clear. Along with the vocals too.
Been watching this channel for a couple of weeks now, I definitely enjoy it. And I must say, it's been giving me strong urges to get out of the suburbs and go camping again after a couple of years having not done so.
Same here! Now that I am older I can't find any friends who want to go camping. Unfortunately I have never been camping but hopefully when spring arrives I can drag one of my friends along that won't complain too much. I have to at least try this out a few times. 😊
I 'm in. Just found your videos recently. We used to camp a lot, now we camp on our sailboat. We like to anchor or stay on a mooring can, mainly in the Thousand Islands National Park of Canada. Lots of beautiful places to camp in Canada.
I’m in that’s for sure only just found your channel recently but now I’ve got stuff to binge watch 😊
