Whenever I was lucky enough to sit at the front of the bus on the top deck as a 13yr old, I would often hold the metal bar in front of the window and pretend I was hang gliding down the road.....on the rare occasion I use buses now, part of me still wants to do this and I am 48.

Hi Marek 👍😊 Great video, cheers. Nice little Easter present for us all.😁👍 Favourite walking item, is a good quality, lightweight waterproof jacket. One you can scrunch up into a ball & shove in the backpack. Favourite seasonal film is 'National Lampoons Christmas Vacation'. You're 100% right about school. 5 years of misery for me too. When you're 13, 5 years seems like forever. Now I'm 50, 5 years goes in the blink of an eye ! 😁 You're so lucky to live on the Isle of Wight. We live near the centre of England. The coast is 3 hours in any direction. 🥴 Keep up with the great videos mate. 👍 Matt.

Thanks Matt. I am a big fan of the lightweight waterproof jacket too. Maybe it's more of a British essential item. Also agree about school. It is odd how those five years seem like about thirty years in my mind. I was in London for 21 years before returning. I don't miss the big smoke at all. Stay cool. Marek

Loved the little upper deck bus eyed view at the start (made me a little nostalgic for my rover ticket days!). Can't say I have bad memories of Sandown High, but I was only there for 3 years so maybe it's the extra two that make it really bad... plus the school I had been at previously had ceilings that often fell down on pupils, not enough hocky sticks for a team so you had to use your feet or legs when in goal, and we had to do PE in Los Altos park as there wasn't even a playing field, and windows were nailed shut so it was awful in the summer and no heaters so it was awful in the winter... I guess Sandown High had an incredibly low bar to meet as any school had to be an improvement on that!? My seasonal movie choices are Jesus Christ Superstar (either the 2000 version, or newer arena tour with Minchin as Judas) and that classic film about an invisible rabbit- Harvey with the wonderful James Stewart.

I loved the Rover ticket. I think it was £2.50 or something for a child's Rover. We ended up going to Newport and back. I just looked Rover tickets up, they are £10, but you have to pay more if you want to get on the Breezer buses (these are the topless ones). The sixth form at Sandown was OK, the three preceding years were a bit grim.

Sometime later, I got up and noticed a proper bench only 5 metres away, just beyond the branches! :-)

A good bit of gear. The Price Per Use on that might be down to 1p per use, an excellent investment on an item. PPU is my system for attributing value to an item. My North Face backpack I bought approximately eight and a half years ago for £70.00 has been used on about 1,600 days, giving it an excellent PPU of 4.3p. (Even I am starting to find this boring, although I may talk about it in my next video).

Hi, are you not going to comment on the fact that the top of the leaderboard is people who have walked over 1000 miles so far this year. That's a lot of walking.

Yes it is really good. It gives you a pink line and a blue dot which shows your location. If you veer too far from the route it gives you a warning. You can put audio on too, but I switched it off. I think my favourite thing is finding the routes on the maps easily.

I was going to ask this on one of my own live streams but seeing as it came up on here : Why do people hang dog mess bags on trees? if they are that lazy why not just chuck it in the bottom of a bush, at least everyone wouldn't have to look at it then, what a disgusting sight, why hang it up for others to see? - Can any one answer me?

Yes it is really weird isn't it. I assume they just chuck it in the woods. I don't see why they even put it in a bag.

It would be nice to have some way of knowing the best spots for having a discreet wee, with tree cover and nettle rating. That way we'd no longer have to worry about inadvertently exposing ourselves to passers-by (horrific because then we are the perpetrators of public nudity possibly in sight of children), and only have to worry about the perverts that would undoubtedly accumulate (fine, because we are then the blameless victims and also possibly heroes for keeping the perverts away from aforementioned children).
