    Great spot that Barney and the Bobcat seems to sit in it perfectly. Look forward to you spending a night in it! Cheers. Rich

    Love the bobcat, I've cable tied the inner to the outer so it pitches so much quicker aha!

    • @barneysbimbles
      @barneysbimbles  6 місяців тому +1

      Nice one, I've seen on the reviews that some folk have problems with the inner detaching. Will probably do something similar 👍

    Nice little video Gavin, had my MSR titan for years cracking little kettle. That is a lovely spot of woodland for a breakfast stop. Tent looks quite nifty too! 👍👍

      Cheers John, hope you're well. I never thought I'd get sucked in to all the titanium loveliness, but I now find myself with a full Ti cookset!
      It's a lovely little woodland isn't it 👍

    Great video Barney and a bit drier in the woods than last weekend 😂 I like the OEX green and yellow combo and looked great against the backdrop of trees! See you soon 👍

      Cheers Lee, yes the woods were definitely less soggy than last weekend!! Can't wait to put the new tent to use 👍

    Nice tent barney, I had a lay in that one when I was in go outdoors ages ago. Good little tent.
    I've seen a few vids where it has held up in some rough weather too 👌
    Enjoy. Banging brekky mate 👌

    • @barneysbimbles
      @barneysbimbles  6 місяців тому +1

      Cheers Adam, yeah I had a good look around it last week in Go Outdoors and thought you get a lot of tent for the money. Can't wait to get it out for a night. 👍

    Catching up on Barney vids! Nice relaxing vid this one Barney. I keep thinking about that Bobcat tent….! Hope the weeding went ok. Cheers and onto your next vid now! Ben

      Hi Ben, hope you're well and the C2C training is going well and great work with the fundraising too.
      I was really impressed with the Bobcat based on those first impressions. I'd definitely suggest that it's worth a punt, especially if you see it on offer. Indeed, I'm taking it out for a camp this week and am looking forward to giving it a whirl. Standby for some more Bobcat content!!
      Thanks as always for checking out the videos though Ben, much appreciated 👍

    Thanks for the video Gavin, I missed the boat, on the bobcat, probably like you, watched videos where they were being promoted and purchased for £60. When I went to go outdoors they were £100 just couldn’t bring myself to do it! Lol.
    A hack i saw for the spam, was to pierce the bottom of the can, it does work, must release the vacuum

      @barneysbimbles  3 місяці тому

      Cheers Dave, glad you enjoyed it. Usually there's a sale on or a discount code to be found. National Trust members get a decent discount at Go outdoors. Great shout with the spam, I don't have it too often nowadays as it costs too much!! 👍

    @Kev.B.4311 6 місяців тому

    Nice one dude, enjoyed that & subbed... Bobcat1 is a great little tent, better than the UL for features, durability & colour, imo... The door is one of the best features, with two way zips to open it up anyway U like, or use it as a canopy... Those blowpipes are great for getting a fire going & love a bit of fried Spam, but yeah, a bit like CornBeef it's not particularly cheap now & as U mentioned, a pack of bacon would have been cheaper...!😯 Crazy, oh well happy camping...!👍😄

    • @barneysbimbles
      @barneysbimbles  6 місяців тому +1

      Hi kev, many thanks for checking out the video and subscribing, glad you enjoy the content.
      Yeah I definitely think that standard Bobcat is better than the UL version and I think the weight is still quite reasonable. The only thing that I'll probably change is the tent pegs, they could do with being a bit better. I really liked the door too and the 4 way zippers. Annoyingly I filmed a sequence talking about the door, but it didn't make it the edit as the go pro must have glitched. Impressed that they're YKK zippers too!
      As for the spam, I think I'll just grab it whenever it's on offer, always good to have some in the cupboard! 👍

      Nice one, I've obviously not used it in anger, but first impressions are very positive indeed 👍

  • @BurtonOutdoors
    @BurtonOutdoors 6 місяців тому +1

    I've been tempted to get the Bobcat too... been pondering, but as I tend to hang a lot more nowadays, I've been putting it off. You got a good deal there really. I'm sure you can zip the door up and then zip it down either side so you've got like a stable door. Still watching 👍

    • @barneysbimbles
      @barneysbimbles  6 місяців тому +2

      Yeah, I bought it predominantly to use on Dartmoor as it seems like a bit of a tank. You're right about the door too, it was one of the features that I really like about it. I did film a sequence talking about that, but the go pro glitched and I didn't realise until the edit. 👍

    Yeah...I was out for a bike ride last weekend. My bike...took control and dropped me off at my local GoOutdoors. I came out with a couple of buys for my Bike. Not for me...but my bike. Im sure it had this planned all along.

    • @barneysbimbles
      @barneysbimbles  5 місяців тому

      You gotta watch out for that, sounds like your bike has a mind of its own! 👍

    I’m not a lover of tents really. I have a one man which is good but, I’d rather have yours than my Jack Wolfskin Gossamer.
    I’d rather eat a Spam and egg roll than McDonalds any day of the week.
    Great trip out, Barn 😉👍🏼

      Hi Tim, I'm definitely a tarp person too, always a nicer way to camp. But sometimes needs must and a tent can be a sensible option. And sometimes, I just have a hankering for a tent! It was an itch that needed to be scratched!!
      Gotta love a bit of spam, but I can't believe how expensive it's become! Obviously spam has the shelf life, but it's cheaper to buy a pack of bacon! 👍

    • @BourneOutside
      @BourneOutside 5 місяців тому

      @@barneysbimbles Spam is crazily expensive now, same as Pek pork too.
      You got that itch sorted then 😁
      I know what mean about certain times it’s better to have a tent.
      I ought to dust off mine sometime 😊
      Keep well 👋🏼😀

    I know what you mean about height with the bobcat. I'm 6'1. I have cramp in my legs in the morning and have to get up and go for a walk about when I wake up to stretch my legs

    • @barneysbimbles
      @barneysbimbles  6 місяців тому

      Hi Simon, that sounds uncomfortable. Have you considered using it without the inner? It might offer you a bit more space to stretch out? 👍
