Coffee A Chat and smoke a Pipe in the woods

Hi guy's just a having a chat about some of my thoughts on my camping I do and word Bushcraft plus Cowboy Coffee and smoking a pipe.

[@MartysRamblings2024]

Great video! Just found your channel. Coffee and chat videos are some of my favorites. I am much the same and just like to share my adventurs. Just be yourself and enjoy life. Again great video and will be watching more. Have a wonderful day! Marty from Minnesota.🙂

[@davidfriars]

Hi Marty, thanks for the really nice comment and totally agree just be yourself and enjoy that’s what i like to do when i am out. 👍

[@RedcoatsReturn]

Nothing like the outdoors😊👍👍….a camp….a fire…..and a tobacco pipe 😉💨💨💨

[@user-ld6ot3pw1s]

hi there! I'd love to meet you one day - I am in Lancashire

[@garystewart2512]

Can’t beat a smoke of the pipe and coffee in the woods I do it all the time

[@davidfriars]

Hi Gary, that is the best time to enjoy a smoke as it just so relaxing where you can just sit back and enjoy the nature around you. All The Best David

When you've run a channel on KZbin for a decent period of time, you soon learn that trends come & go, people come & go, and other channels come & go. The key is to simply focus on what it is that interests you, and make it as entertaining as possible for the audience. But at it's core, it's really about documenting your own journey whatever that entails. Great video Dave and look forward to next hanging out in the woods with you ~Peace~

[@BlakesPipes]

Just subed as I find you worth following with pipes and camping. Will look at your prior stuff. Thank you.

[@davidfriars]

Thank you I hope you enjoy some of the videos I have posted. 👍

[@colinbrown4008]

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Colin it great to get a nice response from everyone. All The Best David

[@johnramsell1109]

Really enjoyed that video David happy new year mate 👍

[@davidfriars]

Thanks John appreciate that. All The Best David

[@Richmc1981]

Nice one dave. I just love being outdoors too, there is no need to be pigeonholed. I am going to order some of your pouches soon

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Rich I Appreciate every order and yes it all about being out and enjoying it. All The Best David

[@Thedagda801]

Happy out! That’s all there is!

[@stonehengeminstrel]

I guess being a pipe smoker myself the pipe smoking algorithm suggested your video. I love the outdoors, but I'm more of a daytime rambler and flask man though. I enjoy Dunhill now Peterson dark flake from time to time✌

[@davidfriars]

Hi Mate, I enjoy a pipe the most when i am relaxing and in nature somewhere it just the best time, i have not tried the Dark flake yet the normal flake is one of my go to tobacco which I really enjoy. All The Best David

[@MrTabeebkalb]

Brilliant chat that many of us relate to but are afraid to say because of peer pressure. Keep doing what you do and giving us the inspiration to step outside the box. Happy new year

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Mate it was nice to talk about some of my thoughts and getting such a great response from everyone. All The Best David

[@macktightwad606]

As always I enjoyed watching this mate, I agree about to many trying to be U tubers, I as you know never script anything, for me it's about the good company the bonding and time spent with trusted friends, OOh did i forget to mention I like capturing the " Geezer Banter ". Well apart from my main role in later life of smelling of stale cabbage and piddle i like to think of myself as a tightwad and wild camper.... Love making my own kit, saving a goodly few bob and getting things just how i like it gear wise.. I was recently asked by Welsh Ian, what did i value the most in Bushcrafting the answer was easy and quickly given. For me it's the good and trusted friends I have made along my way.. I 100 % agree with so many so called experts, they have done a course with someone no one has even heard of and suddenly they know it all and start telling you "you are doing that wrong "..I can't type my reply to such persons on here but lets just say it's in a Solider like manner.. I know it includes the words "#Foxtrot Oscar " and would most likely end with the words " Dicky Head "..In my reply ! ( grins) Take care mate and all the best for the new year !

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Eddie totally agree with your comment. All The Best David

[@chrisgibson2328]

Hello Dave, the Swedish people do their coffee in their kettles. They love their coffee. About "bushcraft"; I have seen loads of videos over the years and I much prefer your style. I do like kit but as long as you are warm and dry etc. that is the main thing. It's about enjoying being outside without a massive rucksack.

[@eugenebatstone5658]

Great video for sure but I love the Swedish method of making coffee in a little Trangia kettle. It’s honestly second to none. Happy New Year! 😊

[@davidfriars]

Hi Chris, I appreciate the nice comment on my videos thanks, totally agree on being warm and dry especially in the winter months i alway have extra cloths with me and i do see people take a large rucksack with gear and don't use the kit they have took out with them if you got it use it. All The Best David

[@neanderthaloutdoors9202]

Good honest video Dave, yes there are far too many ' Bushcrafters ' out there that want to be a Ray Mears, I find it's sometimes quite annoying, they know no more than the average book reader of that subject yet they try to come across as a teacher of that subject, quite pityful really. Anyway mate, pouch is used a lot cheer's and have a good 2023 mate.

[@davidfriars]

Hi Paul, Totally agree with your comment and you explain it well, there nothing wrong with reading a book but for me the best experience is getting out and doing it and having fun and not taking it too seriously. All The Best David

[@Andersbork]

I am with you on your thoughts. I don't get into people's business, and i expect them to stay out of mine. In any case people can have opinions but life is too short. Live and let live

[@davidfriars]

Totally agree, Life is stress full enough at the moment and when i go to the woods i just want to relax and enjoy it.

[@mikewhatley9783]

Nice video Dave - I like the car camping (or Landy I should say) videos so happy to watch those - happy new year to you and the best for 2023

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Mike I will be doing more car camping stuff this year and a load out video on what I use. All The Best David

[@Andersbork]

Great chat Dave i really enjoyed it. welcome to the club i am past drinking to. I have a beer or a whiskey a couple of times a year. I stopped 15 years ago i just felt wrecked empty the day after. I wish you Happy New year.

[@davidfriars]

Hi Rob, over the years i have stopped and started drinking, I not a heavy drinker but it was more of a bad habit and now I don't need it in my life and the good thing is I do not enjoy it anymore which is great. All The Best David

[@outdoorjunky1]

Nice chat mate, Happy New year Not into the drink myself either 👍

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Mate 👍

[@essexplodder9796]

Have a great 2023 matey looking forward to seeing how the new permission develops over the year atb

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Mate, Same here looking forward to exploring the woods and finding new places to setup camp. All The Best David

[@russelltownley7404]

nice little vlog dave you are a very interesting honest enriching and a humble bloke i thoroughly enjoy your stuff thank you and happy new year to you cheers russell

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Russel for the kind words on my video i only speak about what i believe I have not got nothing to prove or gain i make the video's because I enjoy making them and hope that people get something out of them. All The Best David

[@surreyarborist]

Quite enjoyed that. Feb will be the start of my alcohol ending phase . I certainly feel better the day after not having a drink. Just saying. Btw my vids are in the raw and even unedited. I do KZbin as a way of passing things on and I am not a numbers chaser. We are producing a lot of firewood at the moment from trees that we fell. ATB Clive.

[@davidfriars]

Thanks Clive, I got nothing to gain from KZbin I just enjoy making the videos and hopefully someone get something out of it, I am up the woods cutting wood for my fire at home at the moment as the cost of electric is so high i am using the stove inside the house to heat it up every day. All The Best David

[@blister4walken]

Got a couple of your wax canvas pouches over the festive season. Lovely stuff. Already put them to use as part of a brew/cook kit. Happy New Year!

[@davidfriars]

Thanks mate and i appreciate your order it is always great to hear that my products are liked and being used. All The Best David

[@barneysbimbles]

Nice one Dave and some fair comments made in the chat. I can't say that I'm too keen on the term 'bushcrafter' either and much prefer to like myself as a camping/tea drinking enthusiast! I have just signed myself up for a bushcrafting course next year though so their comes an element of hypocrisy! Thanks for sharing though Dave, happy new year to you and yours 👍

[@davidfriars]

Hi Barney, It was my thoughts about the word Bushcraft and being put in that category that i am a bushcrafter which i don't like, I like practising the skills for something to do in the woods but i enjoy just being outside in nature which is the main thing. All The Best David

[@karolkolodziejczyk8487]

I enjoying watching this. I have a question about your trousers what is the company made? Thanks for help.

[@RH_Wildcamping]

Great candid vid, and that’s why I watch your channel. I’m the same, I just like being outdoors. Happy New Year. Oh, and will you be bring out the Rocket Roll pouch this year? Take care Rich

[@davidfriars]

Hi Rich, It is alway great to hear that my video are liked and as i said in the video it's all about just being out and enjoying the outdoors which we do. I will be looking into making the rocket roll as soon as i get a bit of spare time, i do get a lot of message about it so i need to sort it out. All The best David

[@callump4302]

Keep the pipe vids coming. Do you smoke every day?😊

[@davidfriars]

Thanks mate i will try, not so much in the winter but as soon as spring and summer I enjoy a smoke in the morning with a coffee in the garden. All The Best DAvid
