I’ve bloody missed this! Felt so good to get back out in the van, out into nature and to be spending a bit of time away from the van build! Let me know where you want to see my go next 🤙🏼
Bro please call me
Please brother
I knew, William will hit his head in that head side bed area when he made it box type. 😂
Come to South Wales m8 🏴 good spots to wild camp great mountain ranges and beaches some real treats to explore another top vid and nice to see the van coming together 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Something like Austria
Hey Will, be sure to keep your CO2 Carbon Monoxide detector lower than the level you sleep. Carbon dioxide has a higher density than the other gases found in air, which makes CO2 heavier than the air. So it's better to get a signal too early than too late...Happy camping.
This!
Well said that man!!! 👍🏻
Thanks for the tip Jasper I’ll remember this for next time
Maybe do some simple research before putting people's lives at risk you Douche bag
I think the confusion is that RVs tend to have a combination LP/Propane and Carbon Monoxide detector. Propane does tend to settle at the floor and so those combo detectors are placed low in the RV. Carbon Monoxide tends to diffuse throughout the air and so there are a lot of differing opinions as to the best placement (high or low) and it seems to matter less the height at which you place a CO detector versus that you have one somewhat near the potential source of CO coming into the living space. Also, CO and CO2 are different things. CO - Carbon Monoxide versus CO2 - Carbon Dioxide.
its mad watching some one get excited over a USB but ya know what its the small things that count , that's what emma keeps telling me ,
Haha it’s always the small things
Seeing the gas cooker again reminded me of the days when you used to cook on the bed in the galaxy where one spillage could spell disaster!
Yea, another great stealth camp. Following you on Instagram this week I was looking forward to seeing Sunday’s video. Great to see everything working out for you; the van build is coming into fruition & you are looking a lot happier Will. Nice job. Thanks Will, not forgetting Neil & Emma! 😀👍
Got my heater on all night everynight. I start it off on 25 degrees then sleep with it on 12/ 15 degrees. Makes van life bearable. Love the channel mate. Keep em coming
Something special about parking up and getting cosy in the van, love it!
There really is
LOving the progress on the van. Every sneaky night out in the van feels like a little free holiday to me :)
its pretty cool to go back and watch some of these videos of the early stages of the van build and to see where it is now!! You have smashed it Will 💪🏼
Nice one will, so great to see you out n about, just what you needed by the sound of it. Its great to see you re energised by having a stealth camp and everything working...and not leaking or bent..
Fantastic stuff mate.
I often sleep in my van, the thing with sleeping in a small space is that it is cozy and you feel safe in a strange place. Part of the experience is finding the place where it feels safe. I like it most when it is a rainy night.
Sir, it is wonderful to see you so happy. Congratulations on the van's progress.
Will, so good to see you on the road again, having a good time!!
That heater sounds so relaxing. The hours would just fly by with that lovely racket.
I'm a little grounded atm learning so much. Loving watching the progress of your build.
I've literally had dreams about living in a van like that. I'm slightly jealous 😆 but also motivated to build my own now. Really glad I found your channel on Christmas
Just for couple of days mate after this the homeless life is very annoying and painfull…
Found your channel the other day and love it.
You're doing a great job building the van and using it at the same time.
No bull, just the truth.,fuck ups n all. Love it. Hope to bump into you on your travels.
Take care
Cheers Mart appreciate it
I'm guessing that the euphoria that you feel in the Van as your own space is akin to having your first home ... When eventually you get around to buying your first flat/apartment/house you'll understand that great feeling and the Van is a huge step in that direction. It's a step into adulthood !
When the Kitchen and storage is finally built-in that will be another step in creating your own place ... and it's coming along nicely.
Having Heating, Power and Running Water (soon) gives you a mobile Bedsit.
Good Luck with keeping up the motivation.
Check out forestry forest, he camps in some extreme cold through Canadian winters and lives out of his van full-time. He's reviewed some really silent diesel pumps for those diesel heaters.
Who else goes onto UA-cam & see’s Will’s posted a new video & shouts YES!!!!! I’m in for a great night cheers Will as has been said before thanks for all van build videos & most of all for posting when things go belly up which it always does for everyone but only a few great youtubers show, have a WONDERFUL Christmas 🎄 Cheers Will 🚐 👌🏼
Yeah great to see you in your wagon! Progress is good and to see you where I used to live even better! Looking forward to seeing you and the next update
Thanks Amanda
Hahah I am currently in my Campervan, parked up in an industrial estate in Surrey, doing the very same thing....I love it !
12:40 had me laughing, living like a squatter in an old van in the woods......but it brings so much pleasure and people actually wanna watch it, which is crazy !
I know it’s absolutely bonkers haha
This van is surely testing you Will. But I can see it’s helping you grow and develop some tenacity determination and character. 👏👏👏👏
Great that you got out and did a shake down of your progress so far. Wii, Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Stay safe and healthy Mate!
The vans coming along great. You might find a pair of front window wind deflectors handy, then you can lower your windows an inch overnight, it'll let some fresh air in and keep condensation down.
This is very true I had some on my old set up so will pick some up
That's a great idea, I had those on my SUV when I went stealth camping and it worked great for this very reason.
I recommend front cab window air vents. Have a Google for them to see what I mean - they are a black metal grille with a flyscreen inside.
Window deflectors will be more stealthy
Good idea, but would it be viable in the winter? e.g. wouldn't you get too cold?
Love watching these in a pitch black room, in silence, really draws me in
The Vans looking great Will, looking forward to your continuing build. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years building. Steve IOW 😎🎄
If that mattress is foam you can cut the end off with a special foam saw a bit like a band saw.
17:20 Will, you always seem to find the best dogging spots. Cheers!
I know this is a joke comment, but in all seriousness, how well would a van like this hold up when I'm having a go at the missus in the back? hahaha
The van looks great. It’s really starting to come together. I’m very envious.
Glad you're back! This was a great watch
Nice to see you enjoying yourself and stealth camping and seeing the diesel heater working is amazing
It’s all coming together Chris
@@WillsWhereabouts happy for you and I’m looking forward to seeing your next video love your videos
Hey Will, the van looks good. It's like a bedsit idea, delighted for you. Delighted you enjoyed.
Diesel heater is a total game changer for me,I live in Scotland 🏴 so even when it’s windy and pissing down,snowing etc any time of year I can get away,usually get away at least once or twice a week.
Looking forward to spending Hogmanay up north
Atb John 🏴👍
Great to see you back out, all I need is a stealth camp fix once in a while.
So do I!
That was just like the old times, i thought that you were going to do a Stealthy one on tesco's car park for a moment.
It's great to see you enjoying the fruits of your labours Will.
Merry Christmas Will, take it easy.
Cheers mate, was good fun to get back out there
I Love your van and the bulid series! Love these stealth camps!
Cheers Dan happy to hear it
Looks like a good dogging spot Will 😂. Have a great Christmas & New Year and looking forward to many great videos too come.
Great to see you back out stealth camping again 😁
Get yourself some extra pillows to just live in the van. We did thay with a full bed set so we can't forget bedding 🙂
I need to do this for sure hah
Great to see you back on the road!
Wow what a difference from the galaxy!! Well done buddy you've done a great job 👏 👍
Just what I need. I am into motovlogging on Bike , but now watching more and more camper van kinda vlogs and fortunatly owning one makes me want to move in that direction, so I'll be able to carry more stuff , and sleep and do so much more.
I use a marine silencer on the exhaust to stop the droning noise and then suspend the fuel pump by bolting the bracket to a short piece of garden hose. I then bolt the other end to the van chasis which reduced the ticking a fair bit, I've got pics which explain it better
Yas Will good to see you back out in the van brother. Hope you have a good xmas and new year Daddio.
Nice to see another stealth camp. My favorite videos! You could try out the silent diesel pump made by James Browning Smith out of Essex. Foresty Forest uses the same one and he says it works well.
Yes, I agree, it's a lot quieter pump.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEARS have a safe and healthy holiday; great to see you back
Nice video. Glad the heater is working out. Definitely spooky I probably would not been able to sleep. lol can't wait for the next video 💕
Thanks Llory
There are a number of smaller Stone Circles that you could visit in the Van ... Castlerigg in Wales, Stanton Drew very close to Bristol, Avebury in Wiltshire, etc ... You could even do a 'Stone Circle Tour' ! Out of season these places are pretty deserted and you should be able to park relatively easily ... Some of them are even quiet in the Summer.
I suggest that you invest in a pair of proper walking boots also (to keep your feet warm and dry) ...
Another idea would be to visit Windsurfing and Kitesurfing beach areas for great footage and pretty chilled people.
Very modern facilities which look real good.
You've done fab ...... congrats and we look forward to more adventurous.
Stay safe . . 🌞👍🌞🇬🇧☮️🍜☕
Thank you! 😃
Wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Will. Looking forward to more vlogs, stay well
Awesome sauce - man you is living the dream - Van build is coming along so good 👍
So good to see you happy again bud! 🤜🏻
The size van I'm after....I'm currently driving a caddy pop top camper...fully converted but it's a bit small...your van looks perfect and can't wait to see the finished result 😀👍👍👍👍
Just loving your experiences with the van… think it’s time I do the same and get myself a project van👍💪
Heck, I was just about to give you a tip on how to quiet the noise of the hot air coming out of the duct but it looks like you have more important problems to deal with, so I'll save it for later. We all make mistakes during a build but you break more things that aren't broke than anyone I've seen so far.
So pleased the diesel heater is now behaving itself. See you on the next one ❤
I love your stealth camping vids mate!
Cheers Lee, it was nice to do them again
great stuff Will, when you build whatver you are to separate the "garage" area i'm sure the heater will be a bit quieter.
I would have done the same with my van conversion. Good size of bed and the rest just leave it free of clutters. Great video and like your personality. Keep up the great work and being true to urself.
The hand over the cooker never fails to crack me up 🤣🤣🤣
Will treat yourself to some vacuum bags and pillows for keeping in the van. Put the pillows in, seal the bag and squeeze the air out to keep them fresh and dry. If you leave the pillows in the van you will never forget them 😀
Waiting for the snow stealth camp,should be good.cheers will👏
Thank will be awesome
Good to see the heater working will! Your looking contented, keep upthe good work. Looking forward to the Christmas stealth camp.
I’m feeling content aswell!
The van is looking mint will, stick with it bud I find you and your videos very entertaining
I installed a small wood burning stove. I use all the fallen branches I find. No need for a diesel heater. Free heat and I can cook stuff off the top.
A wooden stove would be great
I recently came across a product you might be interested in for you bed.
”Beddy’s” (bedding that zips on)…A little pricy you be the judge. Also your window situation. Maybe tension rods for in the window frame with magnets in the bottom. You could literally cut out and glue =
(fabri-tac)yourself some black out curtains.
See will ,this is what I'm talkin about mate.these are gold
I am LMAO at the end of the video, just lucky Will you didn't have both doors opened, that would of meant me going to A&E for stomach cramps. Brilliant as usual.
Haha 100%%
Nice job. Next year I'll be out on the road again working life out on the road can't beat it parked up on a summers night feet up with a brew. Watching the sun set and the moon rise. Greetings from Yorkshire.
The build is coming along nicely!!
It’s getting there
I used black curtains you would use for your bedroom and cut them to size. My only issue for them is they fray along the edges you cut so you need to hem the edges. These work well for the most part. Of course if you want to add some insulation you will need to either pay somebody to do it or learn how to sew.
You don't need blackout curtains. Get some black non-adhesive window film. Cut it to size and stick it to the window with a little spray of water.
I like it when Will always end the video on a high point! 🙄 Cheer up mate it's nearly Christmas! 🇬🇧🎄👍🙂 ...Keep up the good work!
13:40 it will _ I have run mine for 4 winters and just now need to replace it - as you know simple 5 min job. I've done all you said afterwards and the best is the wind and the rain for me :) I sleep with mine on the lowest which is 8 degrees C all night - once it's up and running it takes 0.5a and goes for days on 100ah. Get a muffler they are about £6 and will kill the ticking noise as it goes around the pump
2:25 if you can master the sopping back to the car with out a bag in the uk you just saved yourself some money ladies and gentalmen, well done will, i love watching your videos i cant wait to get out there, converting you car just like you did to start doing some stealth camping ect
I’d definitely recommend the valleys/Brecon beacons in Wales!
The lit up tree you passed gave me an idea: Since you're based in South West London area (best part of London). Go for the extreme stealth option: -Lower Morden Lane. It's the most Christmassy street in London. Do up your van with as much lights as possible so you blend in!
On a more serious note, have you considered a less is more approach with the van? I think the more spartan minimalist vibes suit you well. I don't think you need a full kitchen set up with fancy cabinets and custom made bits and bobs. Just the bed, storage under it. A chair and a table big enough for your gas hob and you're done.
Wooow, I live a few roads away from Lower Morden Lane.
I'm planning on buying a vw van and having a set up like yours. I don't even wanna fully convert it lol! The progress of your van now is what I wanna aim for
I've got a vito and a webasto, set it on the lowest setting and it's on all night. I also leave extraction on all night, use you phone light in the dark to see the dust. It will shock you. Love to show you my simple set up if your in Oxford anytime.
Merry Christmas will and family have a great one bro 🎅🌲🎉😎🍻🇬🇧
Have been looking forward to another stealth camp. Long overdue!
Couldn’t agree more
Hi Will, I installed my pump under the van, so I can’t hear it when the heater is running ! The only noise I get is a low blowing of air from the heater vent. You might consider moving you pump ! Enjoying the videos.
Great vid Will, love ur content. This is my home time lovely place and plenty of other great places for u to visit nearby. All the best
Cheers Nick, Merry Christmas
What a difference between your Ford Galaxy and the Fiat Ducato. That Fiat makes everything so mutch better,standing up cooking etc etc...
I still remember when I was a truckdriver to let the diesel heather on all night. It didn't bother me,you'lle forget that tikking sound if you're tired enough.
Looking forward to see some more video's
Cheers Nico, defiantly a big difference having lots more space to move around
Hi Will, a small space is cosy and private, love the video Will, it’s so free having a mobile house. Thank you Will. Xxxx🚐✌️🤟🏼
It really is, thanks Catherine
Used night heaters for years in waggons,got to admit they don't seem as noisy as yours. Maybe the camera mic makes it worse. Loving the van build,can't wait to see it finished👍
Cheers Phillip, I think they’re always a bit noisy in startup
You should do one of those NC 500 type trips across the country in your van again. Those were such great series.
Dimable lights above the headrest and end of bed. .....Will, you rascal !
Merry Christmas mate 👍
Hello bud. Yep I do remember the last year’s Christmas. I think if I remember correctly.
I did see you in your car then 😜 I’m so pleased you have got yourself a van to convert
Great outside light you have to😉👍 have fun. Fantastic video. Loved it. Oh and sorry
About lmao when you got into bed🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😉 But I’ll tell you. Your sooooo right
About that little night heater matie. It’s a game changer and makes it a real home
From home feeling……… oh and yep as long as you have got that CM detector believe
Me your fine. I leave my diesel heater on all night on it’s lowest setting and it is just right
Have fun bud and stay safe 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You know you can get small projectors that you can hook your phone up to via bluetooth, get one of those and a type of projector screen you can pull down just in front of the driver's cab, and you have yourself a mini cinema on wheels. Just something for you to consider, save you watching a tiny screen
That would be awesome I’ll defiantly get one when the van is done
wow... this is starting to look amazing... can't wait for wills euro tour XD. as allways amazing content
🤙🏼🤙🏼
Not wishing to be controversial or anything but my 5kw Chinese diesel heater stays on 24/7 during the winter. at 8 degrees it takes less diesel to keep it running than it does to warm up from freezing cold. I know someone is going to tell me I'm wrong but I don't care. This is my second year doing it.
Cheers Will, love the channel 👍
I sleep with mine on all night no problems and I put my pump on the outside of the van so can hardly see it, loving the videos will been watching since the ford galaxy your doing well mate well done, I do a lot of camping down West Sussex
Carbon monoxide detector needs to go mid height, not way up high or way down low. Glad you didn't suffocate, lmao! That looked like so much fun.
Hope you have a good Christmas dude. I know it would probably be impossible to pull off but you should try and stealth camp at some MOD site or government facility. Active or disused would be awesome. Happy holidays everyone!
I am very happy for you. It looks amazing. Well done.
Loop your seatbelts through the door handle and click in for security 👍🏻
That's amusing, you were only a little way north of me when at Witley - Maybe a half hour drive. Small world!
Wishing you a happy Christmas will
Carbon Monoxide SINKS LOW please don't put the alarm at the top of the van, mount it somewhere Low near the heater
