THE CUMBRIA WAY Day 7 & The FINAL LEG in the LAKE DISTRICT - Caldbeck to Carlisle

[@barbaraleckie5804]

Hi you fatboys from Southend , just a few lines to thank you all for the hours of wonderful entertainment that you have provided with your excellent films .I was also a resident of Southend for many years having moved there as a two year old , after being bombed out of Bow in the Eastend in 1941. Like you, I am obsessed with the beauty of the Fells and Lakes , and would often travel the 324 miles from Clifftown Parade to Keswick. However , I managed to stop the commute in 2007 by buying a 40ft. static caravan in Keswick and enjoying Paradise on a daily basis . FANTASTIC ! Best regards to you all, Brian Callow .

Absolutely brilliant, how your channel is not in the thousands in a complete mystery! Loved every minute of the whole Cumbria Way (apart from the injury, sickness and topless shots) and even Mrs Metalman, who does not normally even watch my videos, watched the last 3 episodes in full! The funny this is, I was expecting this none Lakeland episode to be not as good as the rest but it was even better, real good laugh in parts and very picturesque as well. Great job Graham on the filming and editing, which was superb throughout and magnificent effort to you all, especially the legend! Cheers Alan

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thank you Alan, your very kind. I have to say it is a bit of a mystery to me as well. We must be an acquired taste and not appeal to the younger generation due to the peaceful music we use. I think it matches the views. Perhaps we need to do more extreme stuff to attract the adrenaline junkies

[@eddiecaisley5746]

Well done all. A special well done for Dave for completing the final leg in the condition he was in. He is a trooper, to say the least! We have enjoyed watching all the Cumbria Way videos. Cheers. Eddie & Carol

[@johnho2006]

the Quality of your videos , are really good, I can only say respect to you and your editing skills, all four of you deserve a wider recognition , as previously said, I also expected you to in the thousands subscriber league, I will go back and like every vid, and subscribe, , now makes me wonder should I Vlog my own journey, your better value then the BBC for entertainment

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

What a wonderful walk to do with good friends and bless Dave for getting to the finishing line. For me your trail is what life is really all about. Well done to you all. 🍺

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thank you Jon really appreciate it

[@108mlowe]

Brilliant video, Graham, your technique looking very professional. Congrats to the team, especially Dave on day 7, for this achievement and the money raised for Marie Curie.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thank you Michael

[@markredfox73]

Thoroughly enjoyed all the vids from the Cumbria Way...The banter is second to none..They have all had me chuckling...Fantastic trip covering the area I call home.. Caught up on a lot of your stuff when working nights..still plenty more to watch. Glad you love the place to keep coming back to it. ATB Mark.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thanks Mark, we will keep em coming. Thanks for hanging in there with us, were having fun.

[@rokerman]

Your video series has been brilliant. Certainly one of the best long distance walk throughs on YT. I am attempting this solo in May 19. Thank you for sharing.

[@MarkBrimPhoto]

Amazing effort and huge congratulations to everything Involved. What a team effort. Everyone helping everyone.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Yes a great team behind us. Clare as Sherpa especially was awesome and very unselfish. Thanks Mark

[@andyw9043]

Excellent, just watched the last 4 straight off...Binge watching the fat boys!. Dave did well to finish, I hope it not take the shine off it too much for him, Great scenery and location and well edited and put together. Looking forward to the next adventures.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thanks Andy. Dave looks back at the last day with great pride because of how he carried on despite how he felt. It is the main reason we do the vids so he can look back (As we do) at what was achieved at our young tender ages. Thanks for viewing and commenting. Please spread the word 👍

[@sunriseseven4366]

Amazing!!. Again thank you for sharing with us. Such a pity everyone was ill afterwards, how Dave kept going on that last day is beyond belief, but like in his life , giving up was never an option! Great filming and editing, well done to you all and everyone involved. Great achievement. Cheers , Pat

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thanks a lot for you very kind feedback. Dave was dead man walking how he did the 17 miles is totally beyond me. A legend on many levels

[@jdee4215]

Excellent set of videos really enjoyed them all, thanks for sharing them, will be great to look back on when you can no longer manage such long walks, great memories for you all, and well done to you all as well doing it for a charity great.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thanks J. Yes that is the idea of all our videos to be able to look back later in life and remember the good times we had. Thank you for joining us on the journey

[@leonachrispye1591]

Brilliant Graham as always a great video what a ending to a epic trip really felt for Dave But like the legend he is he carried on 😀

[@davidcufc]

Well done! Great video. I'm from Carlisle so I know this stretch really well and you did it proud.

[@Mudanzas]

Just a brilliant, brilliant series of videos Graham. 'So many highlights along the way. Admit to getting a little bit emotional on those selected end ones remembering the trip. And of course, well done on raising the money for Marie Curie. Love the 'taster' that Dave has even improved his "stick dancing" technique since those shown on the summit of Shipman Knotts which I was going to copy as homage to the great man and as a celebration of completing the 214, hopefully next year. I may now have to learn a whole new routine lol. Cheers

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Stuart that made me laugh and yes it was emotional for me as I created that bit. Thanks as always for viewing I just more would do so as seem to lack subscribers and views compared to others. Perhaps you could spread the word for me lol

[@jonletswalk7479]

Watched your journey - brill ! good crack 👍

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thanks Jon

[@rogerhowis]

Well done you guys brilliant videos. was planning to do half the coast to coast walk but now I have seen your video am tempted to do the Cumbrian way !!

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Do it, we loved every second. Thanks for watching

[@johnhenfrey5936]

Another truly excellent video, hope everyone as recovered, looking forward to the Howgills video’s which I walked years ago, Coast to Coast next Summer or The Pennine Way😁 come on lads you can do it.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

John once again, thank you. Coast to Coast and a few Yorkshire walks are being looked at plus some Scottish Adventures. But or love of the Lakes is still strong and Chris would like to complete the 214

[@johnhenfrey5936]

The Dales Way could be worthy of consideration, about the same length of the Cumbria Way, and of course it finishes in the lakes.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Yes we did part of that covering some outlying Fells near Windermere. Looks very pleasant

[@artisansportsman8950]

Very enjoyable mini series & has given me a better understanding of the lakes, if I ever get round to do the Cumbrian way I will do the route starting from Carlisle.

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]

Thank you for watching it, very much appreciated. Hope it helps you on your adventure

[@FatBoysonTourHikingVideos]
