That line drawing picture is amazing! And you absolutely should get a custom made cool dudes rubber stamp made. If any of us followers every bump into you on a walk that would be the ultimate stamp to collect.

[@cdwc]

A really cool dude made me a stamp I always use on the envelopes of letters. I don't do it for ones I send abroad though in case customs get funny about it.

Never has a lovely leisurely walk threatened so much chaos from the start! I mean, you survived it, and you saw a big worm, but things were looking pretty rough for a while there! Hope your next stretch of the walk is much better 😁🙏🏼 Cool drawing btw - and I’m sorry someone made “banging on about memberships” seem like a big deal - it’s not. Actual cool dudes don’t think so and we are happy to support in any way possible 😁

Marek, Forget the horrid comment you mention. Your videos always bring so much light to my day, I always get excited when you have a new one out. It takes money and lots of time to make these videos and so you blooming well should ask for some cash to make them. They are fantastic. If I’m honest your videos have seen me through some tough times and have encouraged me to get out and walk more when I’m feeling down! Love the videos and think it’s such a fantastic thing that you do. Keep going buddy!! Stay cool!

[@cdwc]

Thank you for your very kind comments. I have removed my moan now as I think it is better to ignore all that business. I am so glad the videos have got you out walking.

Excellent survival skills Marek, avoiding the attention of the locals in Faversham. Outstanding red squirrel emoji I think it's my favourite so far.

0:50 Carlos making his play to take over the channel. Good to see you nipped it in the bud straight away. You want to keep a close eye on him. I saw Phantom Menace at the cinema, that was pretty bad.

Yes. I don't know if it is because the stamps got nicked or what. They could leave them on a chained box in the alcove. Or next to a collection tin as I am sure all the walkers would gladly donate.

[@markgoeshiking72]

I am often frightened of groups of strangers regardless of the circumstances, Marek. Good work, 20 miles is solid work!

[@cdwc]

20 miles is definitely five miles too long, I think the cushion in my trainers had gone after 500 miles in them so it got pretty uncomfortable.

[@lisakinahan6105]

Long old walk but some nice scenery. I wonder where all the stampers have gone. That would have disappointed me . I'm looking forward to Canterbury video.

[@cdwc]

I think they should introduce walking stamps everywhere, they are a really cool memento. With this you are supposed to be able to send off for a certificate if you have at least seven stamps and walk 75 miles. I think finding seven stamps is harder than doing the walk itself. right:

[@KNic0lson]

Apple and strawberry laces is excellent!!!! :( sorry you couldnt have a pub lunch. I would have gone on the 13th or 15th ... so 50/50 risk

[@tonylenton8385]

Cool dude 747 here. It was good to see you walking to Faversham. I was in Faversham on Friday night having a few drinks in The Bear, where there is probably the worst mural I’ve ever seen, either in a pub or anywhere else. Check it out as it really plumbs the depths for public art. I live about 20 miles from Faversham and it’s a great town for pubs and to walk to from Whitstable. I’ve enjoyed the two videos of your pilgrimage and it confirms to me how wise I was to join such an August(ine) club. I await video 3 to see whether you made it to Canterbury. Another good walk is from Wye to Canterbury o the North Downs Way. Best wishes, Tony.

[@cdwc]

I could not find a picture of the mural cool dude. The Bear looks like a good pub. I can't remember the name of the one we went to. It was just up the road to the left of where I was standing. Thanks for getting the T-shirt, it will be in the post today.

I hear you on ‘Mamma Mia’. I went to the interminable ‘Les Miserables’ in London. I thought after an hour and a half it was all over with and thought ‘good show’. But no, the intermission and subsequent 2nd half seemed never ending. Good piano work. I’m currently trying to learn the guitar riff to ‘There She Goes’ by The La’s but it’s not quite fluid yet.

when I worked as a nanny, my mum came to visit and insisted on seeing "Cats" on Broadway. bad enough, that....but some guy sitting near us smelled of garlic. and I mean, like he'd eaten garlic every day for about 4 centuries and was sweating it all out. we'd bought some mint cake earlier in the day & rationed it out to try to ward off the smell.

[@cdwc]

I had a similar experience when I went to a half empty cinema with my girlfriend at the time and her Mum. A bloke came and sat right next to me with his girlfriend and put his arm round the back of my seat. He stank of BO. It was so gross and I spent the whole film angry about the invasion of personal space but was too polite to say anything as I did not want to cause a scene in front of my girlfriend's Mum.

Carlos gave me one of his crackers which softened the blow of the pub being closed. I am glad you like the drawings cool dudes.

[@hikingsolo]

Great vid again Marek! And no need to explain why you need subscribers and all that - every KZbinr needs them and if people don't get that by themselves then they probably never will. The worst gig I have ever seen was by an English act called The Streets. They played the Lowlands Festival here in Holland and got so stoned they were unable to play or even form a comprehensible sentence. It got to a point they even got angry at the crowd and they ended up leaving the stage early. I liked them before but that was the end of that! Cheers cool dude.

[@cdwc]

Oh yes I remember 'The Streets.' One of the first gigs I went to see were the Manic Street Preachers at Portsmouth Guildhall. One of the supporting bands was called 'Blaggers ITA', the lead singer jumped into the crowd and started punching people. Pretty weird.

[@hikingsolo]

@@cdwc I have heard of them, but had completely forgotten. Just looked up their wiki and the dude sure liked to punch people indeed: "In mid 1993, the group embarked on a high-profile UK tour supporting Manic Street Preachers. In July 1993, frontman Matty allegedly punched Melody Maker writer Dave Simpson. (...) The incident led to the cancellation of festival slots, an effective boycott by the music press, and the consequent cancellation of their EMI contract. (...) Matty Roberts died on 22 February 2000." So yeah, safe to say it all went downhill from there.

[@cdwc]

I got the impression that he regular jumped into the crowd and started fights.

[@grampawud]

I remember being forced to go to the cinema to watch The Revenant, it felt like ten hours of watching Leonardo DiCaprio crawling about in the snow and trying his hardest not to stay dry. I absolutely hated it.

[@cdwc]

Even the bear fight?

[@grampawud]

@@cdwc The bear fight was exciting everything after that was terrible. I remember Leonardo DiCaprio getting a drink of water by lying in a river to fill up his water bottle. Then he would get dried off and warm then go and jump in another freezing cold river and roll about in the snow. It was a very annoying film.

[@munkeypants1]

Worst gig I went to was a Britpop tribute show featuring acts playing songs by Blur, Pulp and The Verve. Turned out it was same act performing all the songs and doing costume changes (little more than changing hats) between acts. The weird thing is “Oasis” were due to feature but we were told they couldn’t make the gig….

[@cdwc]

I wonder if they forgot the pudding bowl wigs and the long coats. You would think Oasis songs were the easiest ones to play.

[@Zafri777]

Excellent video as always Marek (although I always think that your walk times would be reduced if you didn't have to keep doubling back to pick up your camera after the walking away shots!) Worst thing i've sat through was Cats I would have rather just watch a squirrel for 4 hours instead

[@cdwc]

I am glad I have never seen . The first show I ever saw was Barnum and I thought that was great. Michael Crawford is a hero of mine. I also loved Starlight Express when I was a kid.

[@puddindancer]

So disappointing about the stamps! Even if the church is closed surely they could set them up on chains or something so folks can still get a stamp. It's quite a shame. Beautiful countryside though, and that drawing you've done for next week's draw is incredible! Also love the new emoji! Chers cool dude

[@cdwc]

Yes it was frustrating that a lot of them were supposed to have stamps. If you get seven stamps you can send off for a certificate saying you have done the Camino, but I don't see how anyone would be able to do this.

[@puddindancer]

@@cdwc I wonder if you just stamped seven random stamps yourself if they'd give you a certificate anyway. Any objections, tell them to watch your vids. Undeniable proof! 😂

Cheers Marek, I enjoyed that. Sorry about the lack of stamps and abundance of Faversham locals. Fun fact, the pub down the road from me is called The Shoulder Of Mutton. Better name for a pub than a wood I suppose. Sorry people moan at you on here, hope it’s not a regular occurrence. nice one! 👍🏻

Great video cool dudes, I’ve done many ghost hunts in Faversham at the brewery there, seen some pretty spooky stuff. Worst film I’ve seen was “you, me and Dupree” my wife walked out halfway through with morning sickness and made a right mess of the disabled toilets so we left and didn’t bother with the rest as it was pretty 💩. I keep hassling Greg and Alex to put you on Taskmaster as I think you’d be good on that… KZbin can be full of negative idiots buddy, I’ve had a few! Balls to them!

She got me in for free and I was stuck in the front row watching THE most abysmal play possible.

This is probably something I could just google, but do ALL churches have stamps in case you're doing a pilgrimage? I have a badge collection which is of everywhere I've visited in my 41 years of existing, which is a bit like a pilgrimage church stamp collection in a way .

Yes maybe after the summer. I too have been researching that bit. There is one Air BnB near Beaulieu that sporadically comes up that is £50 otherwise nothing. And that means you have to do about 17 miles or more on the last day I think. A massive pain in the ass.

Farmers, Curse of the walker while in motion. Drunks are the bane of the stationary walker.

I always wonder why they plough completely through a path and don't just put a sign with an arrow. Because then you get walkers wandering over the whole field and damaging more crops potentially. The worst one was when a farmer put a locked gate with tar on top across a public footpath.

The worst gig I went to was during Melbourne Comedy Festival. It was an American Comic’s show that we had paid a lot of money to see. He spent the entire show saying how Melbourne and the crowds were all rubbish and how much he hated us. Nobody laughed. He didn’t tell one decent joke. He just whined on the entire time. Thankfully we watched an improv group immediately after and they were excellent. I’ll never understand why some comics get all the press, hype and ticket sales when the true talent get overlooked.

Overall it was an utterly heinous experience. I just sat there glaring at the cast. When you're not enjoying something time really does seem to slow down. 30 years later, I now have the courage of my convictions to be able to walk out of events that I'm not enjoying. Better still, I have a list of stock excuses to get out of such social activities, when they're first suggested.

I always try to sit near the door in the theatre or at the end of a row, also because my bladder can't cope with acts lasting more than an hour.

My 8th Great Grandfather was baptished in Hucking church, 1630. The parish register said, he was placed in the care of the parish due to Rebellion. His father must have been killed in the Civil War.

[@cdwc]

I wonder if he ever got to ring that bell.

Lol

Worst thing ive ever seen is Ironman 3. Ive never walked out of anything, but i wish i had.

[@cdwc]

I don't like Superhero films, they all seem exactly the same to me.

[@jackholmes225]

@@cdwc the people i went with started taking the piss out of me cause i got up to leave at the credits. So i was forced to sit through the credits and the rubbish little marvel bit at the end as well. Horrible.

Darn it, I was looking forward to seeing your overpriced pub lunch. That building behind you in Faversham was pretty strange; I wouldn't want to walk under it, almost as bad as a cliff. I didn't see the play, but the Mama Mia movie was utter crap and almost put me off ABBA music for good. Also really hated the Noah film; after watching it my reaction was 'what the hell did I just see and why did I stay for the whole thing?'

[@cdwc]

I loved all those old buildings in Faversham. I wish they'd still make them like that. I think that last one was the town hall, but I did not pay attention so much as there were a group of drunks pointing at me and I wanted to get out of there sharpish. I think the worst thing about watching Mamma Mia was all the pissed people in the crowd singing along. So you are just paying to hear pissed people who can't sing.

[@bluecraig99]

It’s sad to hear that there are still viewers out there that believe in leprechauns, pots of gold, winning lottery tickets and youtube creators who can magically do it all for free. I have a word for such folk, ‘freeloaders’! Any chance you can create an emoji to describe those folks? In the meantime, loving the . Stay Cool

[@cdwc]

I shouldn't have mentioned all that stuff really. I just foolishly got annoyed by some d***head. I will probably edit it out cool dude. Thanks for your support

[@lisaperry345]

I'm late again. 🙂Sorry about your disappointing lunch. Meh. Hmm, I'd say the worst live thing I ever went to was seeing the band spiritualized back in the late 90s.They were awful and the lead singer was being a massive bellend(shouting and swearing at the crowd). That drawing of the windmill is brilliant by the way.I've discovered another windmill not far from me (in Leamington spa)that I want to visit. It's featured in a game my son plays too(Forza). 🙂 Right, I'm off to bed now. Stay cool.

[@cdwc]

Hope you had a good sleep. Enjoy the windmill. P.S. I am a bit worried about Mini Marek drinking more than his own bodyweight in beer.

Great second day Cool Dude. We have done Maidstone to Faversham a few times and pretty much the route you took. Worst show, Madness. So disappointing.

[@cdwc]

Thanks cool dude. I am surprised Madness were so bad. I have not seen them live though.

[@walksfunwithgrandad]

@@cdwc That is why we were so disappointed. Great band, many great songs,. They just came on, did the act and went. It was back in the late 80,s and coming to the end of the main fame period. Just about the split for a while.

[@JensRandoms]

The worst film I’ve ever seen was The Mummy (2017) with Tom Cruise. I actually gave up watching it half way. I love how happy the new red squirrel emoji looks Although I’ve heard they’re quite aggressive.

[@cdwc]

I think the one of two films I have walked out of was the Mummy from 1999. I can't remember why I hated it so much.

[@JensRandoms]

@@cdwc Clearly we both have mummy issues

[@HikingWithMartin]

Oh worst film at the cinema was easily Waterworld.

[@cdwc]

I did not mind it when I saw it on DVD, but maybe as my expectations were so low.

[@jamesjordan9631]

Transformers 2 is the worst film that comes to mind, I didn't remotely care what happened after the halfway point and just wanted it to end but I don't know what I'd expected. Worst gig was some comedian on the bill who sounded English but had an Eastern European name like Marcin or Maciej or something 🙃 ...no the worst gig was some Scottish guy called Obie who just did dreadful crowd work for 15 minutes before I decided to leave.

[@cdwc]

To be fair I did have some terrible gigs in my time.

[@Kraiforjoi]

Rita, Sue and Bob too was an impressively poor film.

[@cdwc]

I almost watched that the other night.

[@toppergb]

Five star, I stood with my arms folded for the whole show. Utter garbage

[@cdwc]

What even during 'System Addict'?

[@spekticat]

Worst cinema experience: watching 'REPO MEN' with Forrest Whittaker and Jude Law(?). Hated every second, it's just an appalling film. Made more bitter by the fact that we'd paid extra for a fancy showing. Worst gig- watching a 30 stone white youth pastor called Pat Brick rap about Jesus and telling us his story (spoilers, he was bad and then a Jesus happened and now he's good)

[@cdwc]

I think I started watching Repo Men once and gave up. I liked Repo Man though.
