OFFICIALLY THE WETTEST PLACE IN ENGLAND - Sprinkling Tarn Wild Camping Solo

Hi Al, I missed quite few vids from you as I been away. Now I'm stuck home with new friend Covid so I picked this video to entertaining myslef. I choose this one coz when I first time visited Lakes I planned stayed exact where you. So it was really nice to see how it looks like there. Seen you in small tent make me feel think , well I'm on this boat since I wild camp 🤣 living in small tent. I recently got banshee pro200, on very low budget and hell yeah that's small tent for tall people like me...I was living in this tent 15 days so I exact knew how you felt...
Anyway Thank you for sharing and boggy grass just remind my recent bad days lakes...
Thank you and all the best
Lucy

Did you used to be in the army ?

Great video even if tent bound. I love the sound of rain on a tent, especially when it’s not mine😂 Your scrape on the pot by your long spoon reminded me why I use a wooden spoon 😊

You a Good teacher Bro

Nice tent Bruv

It's obvious that Blue trusts,idolizes, loves ❤️ and adores you more than anything in the world 🌎

Cracking set up Alan and really like how you’ve set up the trekker chair. I’ve got one but haven’t tried this particular way and would be great for relaxing in my inner net at night. I’ve the 25 size for my wide xtherm so do you still have to fold it?

Beautiful country.(I always look up your locations on Google Earth.)… Just curious, how many tents do you own?

🥰

Great video as usual. I enjoy all of your videos, but I think the best ones are in the rain or snow or the extreme windy conditions. I enjoy hearing the rain hitting the tent and you’re inside staying dry. Keep up the good work and I’ll keep watching. tell my buddy blue dog hi.👍

HELLO.

On the subject of very long periods spent in a ⛺ tent or being bivvy-bound due to persistent rains or long winter ❄️ nights, I have downloaded a load of films onto the memory card of my phone. This allows me a bit of entertainment when I'm stuck in locations without any 3G/4G phone signals.
Regarding cooking inside a ⛺ tent during those periods...I never have that problem, because I don't cook hot food or hot drinks while trekking in the mountains or forests, and this saves me carrying all the cooking gear. ( I do however cook hot meals back at my car).
I also often fit the sleeping bag inside a goretex cover as this does help keep the bag dry and free of moisture (although I've yet to have rain ever penetrate the Jack 🐺 Wolfskin Gossamer II tent⛺).

Always a pleasure - sun, rain, or snow. Your happy attitude is such a treat. Thank you. Blessings

Hi, what was the 2 litre Flexi flask you were using, i.e. the no spill one with bite valve? I think. Good idea that.

nice video blue was entertaining in this one he sort of moves like he is in a computer game at times hehehehe ..... and its still not a solo camp hahahahahaha and in this one you even had most of england camping close to you :) liked your drone work to ...... keep up the good work best regards from scandinavia

I seem to remember Ivor the engine rescuing sheep back in the mid 70s

🖖🖖🖖

Ace👍

GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS,,,,seathwaite wettest place in england so spot on

You do go to some truly remarkable and scenic places. I love being in a tent ⛺️ in the rain. I’ll camp out in a very small wooded patch at the back of my yard if rain or snow ❄️ is in the forecast. Seems the some other people think like you and got out there. Blue is a really amazing dog. Another good one. Thanks! 👍😉

Sir. You are a legend. Your video’s are so so pleasing to watch.

Wonderful video, i love the rain too. Stay safe and pat Blue for us all🤗🇨🇦

Blue going crazy at the sound of the drone.

hey im new to hiking , i see you have invested in alot of rab, whats your thoughts on paramo?

Now that I think of it, I might of just realized you’re one of the few people making these types of videos that doesn’t show putting up their tent. You always show the end result and that’s not a bad or a good thing. I just don’t know why I didn’t realize that until I’ve watched 25 videos.

Waiting for a gallbladder op watching your videos make me feel better

Hi. LIKE. LIKE. CAMPING.

MREs last 3 to 4 years after expiry.

Watching that was the best 37 minutes of my day today, thank you.

I’m so glad I’ve come across your channel, camping ain’t really my thing but I love your content I love how you get cosy too, even the small talk is great, you’re one of those people who are just great company even if you think you’re boring lol I also love the bond between you and blue what a beautiful boy! So I’m literally binge watching all your videos old and new and currently can’t get enough!

I have the Abisko Lite 1, as you know, there's not much head room. I just wanted to know what the bit of kit is that keeps your sleep system upright, it's not in your kit list.

People spend too much time looking at food dates 😊

Have you considered taking a radio along with you? Ive been in some miserable wild and wet conditions but the comfort of radio signal can't be beat. MW reception is priceless!

The one thing you learn when on a solo trip, is being very happy with your own company. The content was great mate. Way better than being stuck on tarmac... Welcome to England folks (rain, rain rain rain rain) Bloody love it.

Core strength required when standing up with that standing water, feet planted, arms forward and up.

🥰🥰 your mum sounds amazing kind and a beatiful person 🥰🥰

I can completely understand what you went through. My first ever wild camp was done on the side of Pike o Blisco and in very similar conditions, I had 50mph winds to deal with as well as the rain, I too was stuck in my tent for 16 hours and it was soul destroying, but it was a very good experience and opportunity to learn from and gain experience (how can I do things better) 😊

Dude....Why the heck are you Camping out on a "BOTTOM-LESS" Tent??
And on a Slanted Hill also??
Of course you are going to be Wet,, having the Water Roll Inside the Tent.
from being on a Slant. 🤣 I would of Definatelly used a Water-Proof "BOTTOM" to my Tent in this case.

Really enjoyed that. Blue is great

Only recently “discovered” your channel and just love it. The drone footage and accompanying music were fantastic. Sadly, I never discovered wild camping when I was young and fit and now I physically struggle to walk a mile - so definitely please keep encouraging people to get out there, clear their heads and enjoy it all whilst they can. In the meantime, I’m getting to see the fantastic countryside and benefit from your good spirits whatever the weather throws at you and Blue. Thank you.

This video is very calming and the content is refreshing, nice change

From what ive heard about those mre food rations is that deployed military around the world as well as deployed scientists in antartica and such never look at the date on food and go years beyond the use by date.

Blues little muddy paws 🥰

is there catlle there, or, why the various gates?

hahaha youd rather be in your tent in the rain rather then be at home watching a guy in a tent in the rain ;) great content

Just find your channel i love it subscribe right off blue lovely and I love watching you both

I was a contestant on Blind Date! I was picking the girl and we went to Nashville. Christmas 95/ New Year 96...Makes me feel old thinking about it!

Sounds like summer holidays with Mum and Dad.
