I gotta say, I've been enjoying going through your videos so much after subscribing a couple days ago. Camping is my all time favorite thing to do, but I'm on a work assignment for a few months so I haven't been able to get out since May. Your adventures remind me of my adventures with my friends. Each video has me laughing and almost feeling like I'm there with you guys. Thank you for that! Keep up the content, everyone is really enjoying it! -- Just noticed you are almost up 1k subs in a few days too 👍
Cheers Lawrence that's really nice of you mate and it makes it worthwhile making the videos to receive a great comment like this 👌😁 I'm glad you like the craic and you're enjoying my videos, I'm over the moon at how many subs I'm getting from my amazing subscriber's, there must be a lot of people out there who have a good sense of humour and enjoy a few beers lol 🍺🤪😀 Thanks very much for watching bud, cheers Chris 👍
Fun to catch up on the old videos. Some magnificent views in the high country. Looks the kind of place where a glacier had it's way scratching the bottom off multiple drainages at the same time. Sort of like an octopus scratching a rash ridden rear wearing Velcro mittens. Good on you for trying out the old Grouse.
Aye there's some decent budget gear Brad mate, just have to read a few reviews to see what gear to avoid 😉 😀 Thanks very much for watching bud, cheers Chris 👍
Did your ancestors build stone walls on the path to stop the enemy? That's a good hiking trail. My friend's foot dance made me laugh.Thank you for the great video ^^. Thank you ^^ 👍 👍 👍
I think the stone walls are more to do with farming but just up north a few miles we have Hadrians Wall which the Romans built 😉 Thanks for watching mate, cheers Chris 👍
Enjoying the older videos before I subscribed. I always wonder about the camera view as your walking away wether you set it up then have to run back for it lol 😆
Another great vlog chief Mandingo am slowly catching up on vlogs still prefer your stealth camping vlogs but now have a vango Orion so cool Chris hope to meet up sometime maybe next year and wud love to do a stealth camp with ya and a whaskey review and bring some for you to try but keep it up Mandingo
Hi gents! Must have been a tough day, that👍 I'm with you on using decent but cheap gear. Spend a grand on a Hilleburg and you can still poke a hole in it 😁 Buy ten Vangos instead👍 All the best👍
Hello Des mate, I'm always skint so it'll always be budget gear for me 😀 Aye it was a tough day, as soon as i lay down i was out for the count 😴 Thanks a lot for watching bud, cheers Chris 👍
eyup up chris lad 👍 another mint vid, speakin of mint, try a bit mint sauce on them new potatas? I bloody love mint sauce, on me peas, on me spuds, give it a go m8 😃
Cheers man, much appreciated 🙂 Smokey Black was decent mate, it warmed my chest up in a cold tent ⛺ 🥃🤪 Thanks very much for watching bud, all the best Chris 👍
Love it!! People think kit is expensive but if its looked after it lasts a while. I have mine stored si it can just be picked up when i want so don't have to fart on. Everything there..Inc tin opener !! Just annoyed I got ill and can't get out as much now 😒
Yep it's good to have your gear all ready to go, hopefully you're better soon so you can get back out 🤞🙂 Thanks very much for watching Ange, all the best Chris 👍
Nice one again mate , you don’t need to spend a fortune mate on gear , start off cheapish and if it’s for you you can upgrade over time , nice bait there too , and the bloopers had me creased again , thanks for sharing, set me right up this for a night in the Cheviots tonight, class , keep a hold Chris, atvb Deka 👍🏻🍻🏕😎
I will start to upgrade bits and pieces when i need to but i love a bargain me mate and i don't like getting rid of stuff that still works ⛺😀 Glad you liked the bloopers, most people will have turned it off by then haha 😄 Thanks very much for watching Deka mate it's really appreciated, all the best Chris 👍
Good old slog there especially with those bags full of clobber think you missed a trick though ya should have gone up cats y cam and left everything in ya tent . Atb chaps Nigel.
Aye we should have done it but i was too knackered when we arrived after hiking all day and we had to get back down to the old vandingo coz i was parked in a dodgy spot 😀 I've got a route worked out for next time where we'll do it along with another 6 Wainwrights RIGHTS!! Thanks very much for watching Nigel mate, cheers Chris 👍
Yep, I did the same for some reason, missed out Catstye Cam so going to have to head back up again for that one too. Wow sounded like a rough day after already bagging Blencathra in the morning. Hahaha, an old man at almost 30, wait till he gets to 67, then he will know what it is all about lol. Just goes to show, you do not need to spend a fortune to get out camping and I think a seat is a must when you are wildcamping, especially at my age lol. I love a rump streak, nice and tasty and after a day like you have had, well needed as well, my bloody tongue was hanging out. A sweet, grainy, ash, woody and peaty whiskey😳, sounds bloody awful 😂. What a brilliant morning to wake up too and then have sausages for breakfast, amazing start to the day. I did Nethermost Pike and Dollywagon Pike from the Thirlmere side, last time I went up Helvellyn but canny if you had cars at both ends, as you could get Catstye Cam in too, without coming back, cheer Alan
Ha ha my whasky reviews are getting worse mate 🤣 🥃🤪 It was definitely rough, i was absolutely shattered and i was nearly gonna leave the steak and go to sleep but I'm glad i cooked it coz it was unbelievable 😋👌 Hopefully the other Chris is back out soon and we'll go for a good hike and get Catstye Cam finally done 🤞 Thanks very much for watching Alan, cheers Chris 👍
Another quality wildcamp. Brave lad drinking grouse 😂. I’ve got a couple hillebergs but I do still use all the cheap crap I bought when I was starting out again. Or I’ve handed it down to get others started. In camping cheap doesn’t always mean shite gear it always means heavy gear tho 😂. Happy camping 🏕
I've just snapped pole on my bargain Coleman Cobra tent haha, video should be on UA-cam tomorrow 😁 I'll definitely be investing in a good tent after Xmas, thanks a lot for watching bud ATB CHRIS 👍
Class lads tough ould slog that , class to meet yous , thanks for offering me your Autographs 🤣🤣🤣, mint channel always a brilliant watch all the best marras 😃🏕
Ha ha and the shoe bomber (young Chris) said it would only take an hour 😬🤪 It was class to meet you Gary marra and you can certainly have our autographs, in a few years there'll be worth about 69p 😆 Thanks very much for watching bud ATB CHRIS 👍
Spot on Chris mate, yooze have some good gear there mate, like you I too can't afford hillebergs and neo air pads etc...yet🤣 but the cheaper gear definitely doesn't mean its any worse, a got one of them oex sleeping bags and it keeps me really warm and its not even down. Some of the cheaper gear theae days are of really high quality. I can see why people go to red tarn, with helvellyn looking over, looks class, nee wonder yooze were knackered after a full day of climbing 👏, look forward to the next one mate, atb Mick 👍
Don't think I'll ever be able to afford the expensive gear mate but there's some decent cheap stuff, just have to check the reviews to make sure you don't buy shite ha 😀 Aye Red Tarn was a mint place to camp but we were absolutely buggered when we got there 🤪 Thanks for watching Mick mate, cheers Chris 👍
Quote of the day striding edge can go f@#£ itself 🤣🤣🤣 great video liked about your gear I've already purchased the oex salamanda bivvy from later vids just for 1 nighters might invest in a little seat next keep up the great uploads Chris
All for the budget gear! 😂 I can never afford the expensive stuff, and never needed it tbf… the only thing I’d change is my sleeping bag to a warmer lighter one as I’m a fan of Scotland and sleeping in 1 degree the other week on the rob Roy way proved to me I need to upgrade ha ha
My friend, I too know the merits of camping on a budget. Long before brain tumor I was known as something of a penny pincher. But hey, if ya can save a hundred or more of any currency, its worth it to buy last year’s model. And I have several pieces of slightly used gear in my collection. However, I don’t buy used socks or underwear. 😆 cheers amigo.🤙
I don't think I'll ever have the top gear Ken mate coz I'm always skint ha ha 😀 I just check the reviews before i buy something coz some of the cheap gear is shite and some is very good 🤪 Thanks very much for watching bud, all the best Chris 👍
Hahaha. Young, Mid, and Old, you're all still younger than me!. Wish I could go back to being 23 again but I hear 30 year refunds are hard to come by these days. After watching this I'm getting hungry again and it's quarter to 1 in the morning. 😂
Whenever i buy anything from now on it'll be an upgrade from my current gear, to be fair there's some gear a lot cheaper than mine so i would say my stuff is half decent 😀 Thanks for watching Mark mate, cheers Chris 👍
