We used to run around Darnet Island back in the late 80's & hit each other with foam swords dressed as Elves & Orc's... Lovely video mate, thank you for sharing.

Is Hoo island, the one closest to Upnor, that has giant MOD stay out signs, did you encounter anyone?

[@trekandrun]

thats right it is, although the signs are well hidden if you approach from certain angles. And the island owners are allright really, they have no real objections to you being there if you ask nicely.

[@olitography]

I tried to call the ports authority to get permission to film, but they just said no way, did you ask when you went on the island?

[@trekandrun]

olitography i didn't, but adam did when he went to camp there. they allowed him to do that. i guess you may have caught them on an off day. i've been out there many, many times, and never seen anybody there. i think it's rather difficult for them to police any rules they may have.

olitography I've a contact at Peel Ports you could try. pm me? [e-mail]

Trespassing, and you put on You Tube

[@trekandrun]

Tresspassing at Hoo Fort is the lesser wrong being committed there, if you know the history of what's buried next to it. As for the other places, I know the owners :)

[@AdamDTaylor]

I got permission to camp for 2 nights on Hoo island 3 months before I returned in this video, I doubt the owners would've minded :-)
