Elstree and Stanmore Circular | London Walks | Cool Dudes Walking Club

A circular walk around Elstree and Stanmore, taking in Aldenham Reservoir, Wood Farm London viewpoint and Pear Wood. I started at The Manor Hotel. There's a nasty road crossing on this walk across the Watford Bypass.

Phenomenal video, thank you, Marek. My three crisps would be: Chipsticks, Monster Munch & Space Raiders.

[@ReeTM]

Must say I'm shocked nobody suggested Brannigans as their favourite crisp, yet I'm not surprised having just goggled they are no longer in production! My heart is broken & my mind is blown.

Rewatching Feb ‘24

1) Frazzles 2) Quavers 3) Scampi fries. I once stayed in a hotel where the bath was directly in front of the window so you could wave to passers by or passengers on the bus as you bathed.

About 35 years ago I got locked in the shared bathroom in a guesthouse in Llandudno. You had to leave it ajar as it somehow locked itself from the inside, I went in, closed the door but then couldn't reach the handle to get out. The son of the owner had to climb a drainpipe and get through the window to set me free, he was also called Neil. Great days.

I remember visiting New York. I was young, first time visiting the States and found a great deal in a new hotel downtown Manhattan - everything gleaming, sparkling, brand new. Picked up the soap in the bathroom to wash my hands, it slipped through my hands and went straight down the toilet. Instead of putting my hand in to pull it out, I flushed the toilet thinking that would solve the dilemma. The water came into the bowl and wouldn't drain. The water kept rising and then overflowed the toilet and went all over the floor in the new bathroom. I called reception, kinda downplaying the situation after trying to mop it all up with a few towels and not mentioning the soap. The handyman arrived and on his radio I heard someone speak "There is water flooding into the restaurant. We are taking the artwork off the walls". I felt pretty bad but more guilty that I left the plumber to get on with it and didn't tip him.

En route to the World Cup in South Africa 2010, I had an overnight stop in Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) and was put up on the 10th floor of a hotel in downtown. It was scary because the hotel was still under construction and there was only glazing up to the 7th floor. Good job I'm not a sleepwalker.

[@systemSkynet]

My hotel survival story isnt scary but it was a dance with death. I was dehydrated AF from a mad session on the booze and couldnt drink the tap water. The only thing to drink was the mini bar full of vodka and I blank out drinking vodka and turn into a right bellend. So vodka for breakfast it was. 5 minutes later I was watching my drummer take a decent punch to the face from a rather large lady for knocking on her hotel door and blasting her in the face with a fire extinguisher. The day got worse but thats a story for the podcast. Nice one for the shout out cool dude. Cool dudes assemble!

[@feetunes]

Smile on my face, although the walk looked truly awful. Think 2 cool dudes out of 5 was exceedingly generous.

Hi Marek 👋

[@philipjames1599]

Love the videos . Pickled onion Monster Munch. Walkers Salt and Vinegar. Dorito chilli heatwave

[@JohnLvideos]

I did get stuck in a hotel lift once which stopped between floors and I could hear the dinner gong ringing but couldn't get out. I thought I was going to miss my dinner, that was scary.

[@jamesjordan9631]

Big Hula Hoops Smoky Bacon, Cool Original Doritos and Ready Salted Walkers baked for me, but I eat so few crisps these days that three single packets might last me my lifetime.

[@chrischeltenham]

I had this very thing happen to me in the bathroom at my home where the handle actually broke but thankfully my phone was in my pocket so I could call for help. I had to wait ages for my parents to come around and let me out.
