    Your kind acceptance of someone beating you to the best spot was good to see and Toby looked like he was in a blissful state as he drifted to sleep. Reliably great watch!

    Hey, guys! Thanks once again for the likes and the comments on the videos, it's given them a real boost, and it's very much appreciated! I enjoy reading through them, and as some of you know, I always reply to every comment. I'm heading back out on another camp to enjoy the tail end of storm Bert, and will read and catch up with the comments when I can.
    Take it easy, Ryan!

    You can always rely on us English to grab the best spot 😂. Sad story about Tommy, bless him. That peanut butter twirl didn't touch the sides. Lovely to see two wild campers being friendly and considerate of each other. Enjoyed watching mate 👍

    Great dose of outdoors! Toby was in his element and looked like he enjoyed his dinner, and yours looked tasty too! Really enjoyed coming along from New Zealand! Sad tale about little Tommy, and a nice tribute to him; a poignant testimony as to why mountain rescue service is so so vital.

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  Місяць тому +2

      Thanks, Amanda. Toby will be having steak on our next camp. Storm Bert has battered us here in Wales, all the roads are flooded, so we're a little stranded. I'll be enjoying a nice whisky when it brightens up on my days off 😉

    Like you, tabbed around there so many times but never actually dropped down to the tarn. Looks a great spot. Good video as always, bit of escapism whilst working away for a couple of weeks and hotel camping...😢😂

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  Місяць тому +2

      I've been down there plenty of times, but never got around to camping it. It makes for a great swimming pool in the summer, it's quite a suntrap. I've done plenty of hotel camping myself, Chris, I don't envy you 😂

    Love watching your videos from here in the Cotswolds. I'm running a half marathon from Llanbedr in a couple of weeks time and whilst I'm used to running ultra races locally to my home, a half in the Brecons is somewhat daunting. Fingers crossed for a cold crisp and bright day. Big hugs to Toby 😊

      Thank you, Paul, and welcome to the channel. It's a great spot, but I often see tents there when I'm out walking late afternoon, the surrounding area still makes for a beautiful camp though. All the best, Ryan.

    That is one of my favourite camping spots in Wales, like you said it is a beautiful spot. I also drive 2 1/2 hours from England to get there .
    All the best, see you in the hills

    That’s a very sad story at the end of your video. The nent looks good. My wife is always telling me about a school trip she went on and had the walk up Pen y Fan. She got blisters, very sore point and that was 55 years ago. Keep up the good work. Phil. 🇬🇧

    • @wildaboutwales

    Looks like a cracking spot to camp, I've camped at the other pitch and it gets cold when the wind blows across the water, also camped up on Craig-Gwaun-Taf at the beginning of a storm, very exposed, but the ground is perfect for keeping the pegs in tight. Stunning views in that area. And super friendly people.

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  15 днів тому +1

      It really was a nice spot to spend the night, Leigh. Craig-Gwaun-Taf must've been a challenging camp in a storm, there's no escaping the winds there; I've yet to camp there. Have a good New Year, mate 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    Hi Ryan, really enjoy your videos and explanations, it's really helping me to get kit together and giving me motivation to get out there. I'm quite regularly working in Ebbw Vale at the moment so I get some tremendous views on the drive down from Manchester, makes it feel almost effortless 😊 Thanks for taking the time and effort to share your experiences with us all.

      @wildaboutwales  Місяць тому

      Thanks, mate, I'm glad you're finding the videos helpful, it's nice to hear. Hopefully you'll be able to get out soon. I used to drive up to Liverpool for work, and I agree that the scenery makes the long drive quite enjoyable. All the best, Ryan.

    Enjoyed the video mate, thanks for sharing. I had planned 3 days in the Forest of Dean but only ended up doing two and had to go home early due to storm Bert. Nice to see Brecon quiet for a change, I'll have to pop up there during the week as well by the looks of it. thanks again.

    nice spot i took three American friends there in July they loved it.They couldnt believe all the countryside and coast on our doorstep.I was in Georgia with them in February and we had to drive over 3 hours to find somewhere to camp.

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  Місяць тому

      That's a beautiful spot for them to spend a night whilst visiting, Nigel. I bet our landscape is rather unusual to what they're used to in the States.

    Another enjoyable video, the location looks beautiful. I’ve just finished reading ‘Finding Hildasay” by Christian Lewis, that I bought recently following your recommendation, and really enjoyed it, so much so, that I’ve ordered the sequel which should arrive any day. If any of your viewers are looking for a stocking filler, or have been tasked with a “Secret Santa” mission, they could do far worse, or of course just fancy it themselves. The recipient wouldn’t necessarily need to be a camper , it’s a feel good , easy read, and offers an insight into parts of the U.K. they’ve likely not heard of.

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  Місяць тому

      Hello, buddy! It's a brilliant read and an incredible story, I loved following his journey as he walked the coastline, just incredible. Yes, it would make a great stocking filler, it's a good read for anyone. If you have a search, there's a documentary on his walk in BBC iPlayer, also a Ben Fogle documentary, both a great watch.

    Another brilliant camp by the looks of it. Ah it's gutting when you got a place in mind but someone gets there before you,isn't it 🤣 it happened to me the other week up North Wales lol. Wow that ginger bread latte looked right up my street. I've never saw that before. Did you get it from a supermarket please? If you don't mind me asking. Another brilliant video 👍🏻

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  Місяць тому +1

      Thanks, Charlene. I wasn't too bothered, with it being such a popular spot, I was maybe expecting it. It's a bit different when you've done a 4hr drive up North for a spot though 😂 I picked the latte up in Tesco. Morrisons have got a great selection of unusual cans too 👌🏼
