    Nice Tuesday night video mate. I love that Mourne mist and to be fair they have a good selection of beers. Cracking shots down into Newcastle, brilliant that you see the Lighthouse flashing away there. On the cramps my hamstrings seem to get it getting in and out of the tent sometimes, maybe try them electorates they do work. Great decision to head out 👍. Oh before I forget… them steaks looked tremendous 👏

      The view down to the lights from Newcastle and beyond was class, got a bit lost trying to find the tent on the way back though, should have kept the tent light on.
      The brewery is only a couple of miles down the road from me, wonder if they would sponsor me 🤔🤪
      I’ve got some electrolytes and usually have some but hadn’t on this one, steak was good but couldn’t finish both, on a diet and was stuffed.
      Also got freaked out as I thought I heard something outside of the tent, actually called out and everything and went out to check, loads of bangs and bumps around so was comfortable it was just the forest noises.

      @ you should get onto the brewery for a wee discount code 😂, I had the oatmeal stout and it was like a meal in a tin. Yea the forest camps definitely have more noises to them.

      Dude, few years back on a solo on Bearnagh I was in agony with both legs cramping for nearly an hour, think hydration and taking electrolytes is the answer but missed out on this camp as was in a big rush to get packed and on the road.
      Thanks for watching!
      When you out again?

      @ yea I definitely am expecting my legs to bust of a sleeping bag because of cramps 🤣 .. I’m hoping to be out this week was out a few weeks back and filmed a video but didn’t turn out to great was stuck in the tent the whole time due to weather .. so hoping this next video works out a bit better lol

      Not been out as much as I would like mate, the weather is terrible, very windy lately. Steak was good but would be better with your sauce! 🤪
