Solo Bushcraft Camp under fallen tree - Too Much Rain!

[@starcorpvncj]

As an ex jungle soldier from the Aussie Army may I give you a tip? Don't wear a tight raincoat. It overheats and restricts you. It soon lets the wet through, both as rain and sweat. It doesn't keep your pack or sleeping gear dry. Rather sling a light, wide, plastic sheet like a cloak over your back and fasten it around your neck. This leaves your arms free and lets your body breathe. It also keeps your gear nice and dry. It can later be used to cover stuff at your camp that you need to leave outside your shelter. Cheers.

[@adamheazlett1179]

Yeah travel light.Dont leave the plug at home for the kitchen sink.Shame to here about soft boys in the army maybe pommys snuck in.Tip put salt dubbin on your boots minimise leaches

[@rosemaryjwalsh]

Great advice!

[@harshvardhan568]

I do agree with you… this guy does “ luxury “ bus craft… “ I’ll go home if it rains!” 😂😂😂😂

I was going to get up half an hour ago but started watching this video and still wrapped up in my warm, comfy bed. Lovely.

[@ERFox5sparrows]

As I've written under other of your video's, I'm one of thousands of frequent and older viewers. I find your videos both informative and relaxing. I love to sit back every night and watch your videos before bed. May I propose an evening chat held on KZbin sometimes between you, and we fans? A moment to reflect on your videos, answer questions and simply say hello? I'd also like to propose a group for some of us called "grannies for Andy!" This group consisting of older gals who can't camp as you do but love that you do! Seriously, thank you for the videos. I very much enjoy them.

[@sylviatan6061]

I’m 75 and am ready for a camping trip any day. Just helpful to have someone fit enough to help with the baggage😅. Otherwise I watch camping videos every night for hours on end. It’s addictive. I can almost smell the campfire and the steak on the charcoal grill. Then I go to sleep happy.

[@PatriciaBaillie-nd4vv]

How do I join your group

[@wendyevans3272]

Love your grannies for Andy but as I’m not a grandma, unless you count cats, can I join? 😅

[@TheNatsuguri]

One think i love about you videos Andy (along with others like Simon and Mark) is that you dont try to hide your mistakes or problems. It adds an element of 'realness' and hepps others, like myself, to learn and not expect perfection when we try to emulate you. Thank you for your honesty! 👍

[@mikebike2510]

I love the honesty. Please never stop telling the truth.

[@h00ch-71]

I'm in! Just discovered your channel a few days ago and I've watched a dozen videos already! Love your content!

[@AwkwardHistory]

Welcome. There’s a great set of videos courtesy of Andy, most of them with his cheerfully laid-back self giving us a great camp out ride along. He seems fond of Monty Python so he’s alright.

[@sharondeters9036]

I like your reviews, saves me time and money. I am in on the knife, really nice to have.

[@monkeykh4647]

Love the channel, started watching about 6 months ago and camped out for the first time in over 30 years. Bought some basic bushcraft equipment and planning to give it a go myself. Thanks for getting me interested in the outdoors again.

I'm in. Kind of a funny story actually, my cat loves watching your videos with me. She comes and stares at my laptop and follows you on screen. Bird sounds, leaves rustling and such are a great bonus but I think she's just very interested in learning 😅🤣 I'm scared that if she ever gets lost, she won't come back home because she learned from you how to start a fire, make shelter and prepare food. Love from Poland ☺

🤣🤣🤣Hilarious! Cat Camping! 😂😂😂

[@TonyNicholls-gi9le]

I'm in (I'm Live in Canada, ex-patriot Brit from Wimbledon).... I have followed your channel for a few years and have learned a few things. I particularly like the food prep/cooking portions of your Video's. You're responsible for me purchasing an Opinel #8, a great little knife that's now in my EDC. My current camping knives are a Mora Companion and one that I made myself. I would love to add a BPS to my outdoor itinerary. (Just saying')

[@MancFlowerDragon]

Hey Andy. I enjoy watching your videos. I’m a grandma from Manchester UK. I like the different kits/set ups you take for different conditions. I pretend to myself I could do what you’re doing - yeah right. Simply very pleasant to watch.

[@Woodcutter-e3e]

Cheers.

[@marelunareikiasmr]

I'd watch a grandma from Manchester go camping! 🏕️🥾💪♀️

[@stephenpwilson1930]

I don't know how old you are grandma, but, Im a great grandaddy aged 66 and I still go wild camping. Usually with a hammock, because the sleep is better than in a tent or tarp and sleeping on the ground. Try it during te day first, with a tarpaulin, a camping chair and a small stove to make tea on and carry sandwiches in a back pack. Enjoy. xx

[@autumnangel4808]

I'm a grandma from Manchester too, and I go wild camping 😀 give it a go!!

Hi from sunny QLD Australia. My husband and I stumbled across your channel a couple of weeks ago and since then we have started binge watching your channel! I must say we’re quite addicted to not only your camping tests but mainly your nature as a person . We thoroughly enjoy every part : the set up, the cooking, the everything but mainly how you take everything in your stride in such a chilled fashion. I think you’re bloody brilliant , entertaining, and educational. You need to come to Sunny QLD and experience our beautiful land, be sure to bring Simon .

Do you also watch Simon a Bloke in the woods in the UK and Chris Banman here in Australia?

Fellow Queenslander here! Completely agree with you. Love Andy's channel.

[@colrodrick8784]

@@oldbloke204 certainly do. I was amazed at that strange harp like bush saw that he pulls out of the air. I looked over Simon’s videos from sbout 6 years ago and he had one on DIY from greenwood using nothing more than a hand auger thick bladed knives, some lines and some timber from the forest. I’m in awe, as I never thought you’d be able to put that together with so few tools.
