Our Great British Weekend: Why You Need to Try Overlanding in the UK

[@rebeccahales2002]

Please stop worrying about whether "its ok to say this" or "im going to get hate in the comments"! Too many people are scared to be their authentic selves and you two are hilarious, genuine and warm. Your banter makes the videos so watchable ❤ I've been binging whilst on maternity leave!

[@truebluetravellers]

Oh bless you that’s kind of you to say thank you. Wishing you all the happiness in the world with your little one 💙

[@stewartwilkinsonsnr]

So from a lad of 75, raised in Lowestoft and now living in Golcar outside Huddersfield West Yorkshire for last 21 years, I have to say John your Yorkshire was pretty good. Also John whilst walking in Yorkshire you had short trousers on, our Postman wear theirs most of the year. Outstanding video, great drone filming. I sat with me Yorkshire Tea Cuppa laughing at you and Jess who’s a brilliant Lass, the chemistry between you two is awesome. Agree with you, there should have been a sign up where you parked. Look forward to the next adventure. ❤️💙xx

Thanks very much mate, it’s much appreciated 👍😁

[@chubshort8240]

I absolutely love ❤️ you guys , you are a great breath of fresh air , great content and brilliant banter between you two 😂.

We started with you doing your sainsburys van, so we went back to the start to see the rest of your videos. Good to see you in our neck of the woods at Ripley! Would be absolutely epic to meet you both, you'll have to sort out a gathering! Keep being you guys

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks very much for that! We love Yorkshire! Definitely need to explore up there some more! We do need to do something like this, would be good fun 💙

[@lyndseyellis949]

@truebluetravellers let us know when you're back up this way and I'll cook you a curry while the hubby and I give you some tips on places to visit!

Sorry Matthew, we just don’t really have the time for builds like this really as we have too many projects of our own 👍

What a brilliant series. I binge-watched the Sainsburys van build earlier, and now I’ve binge-watched this build. Epic job you’ve made of that Land Rover. It’s 3:05am now, so I’m going to bed and I’ll start again tomorrow 😂

It never fails to amaze me how you seem to be able to park up just about anywhere in the UK for the night and not even have to be certified self contained. Not so easy here in NZ any more sadly. Love your vids BTW

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks 😊 To be honest it’s allot harder in the uk now too, I was amazed how hard it was in oz too in places, some places in Europe are still brilliant tho 👍

[@Scrambler85]

I have 3 jeeps but you are making that Landover look very useful.

[@truebluetravellers]

😂😂 gotta love a Landy, I heard they are becoming a lot more popular in the us now too 👍

[@only-vans]

never seen a jeep fitted out as an overlander ...only as rock crawlers. Andrew St.Pierre White once summed it up perfectly. If you want a weekend off roading, buy a jeep. If you want to overland the world, buy a landrover.

[@Scrambler85]

@only-vans lots of KZbin channel with jeep overlanding. Some are pretty good

[@vantabulouslife5704]

There is a small old fashion railway station, looks straight out of the 60s that overlooks that viaduct,. You are allowed to stop overnight in the overflow car park. Spent a night there last year. Only 2 trains the whole time we were there and the views were epic

[@truebluetravellers]

Sounds lovely, wish we had know this when we were there, love a train too 😁

many years ago you could drive to the viaduct, I have a picture of one of my cars taken under the viaduct, truly beautiful part of England. one point though the longest brick viaduct in UK is the Harringworth/Welland (Rutland) viaduct at 1.166km and 82 spans, Ribblehead only 400m long. love the Defender setup :)

[@the_lost_traveller]

The reason there won’t be a sign as you were probably in the national park, which are very strict on things like that. Problem is not just you but they have a lot of people doing that and unfortunately not everyone is as respectful as you and causes damage. Also can’t believe you drove through hawes without stopping at the world famous Wensleydale creamery! Well worth it.

[@truebluetravellers]

Just started watching your vlogs from the beginning and this one has really made me laugh, as I’m a Yorkshire lass, growing up in and around Northallerton and found your accents so funny. My grandparents farmed up there, close to Semerwater near Hawes and Leyburn. But I do have to pull you up over one point, it’s not Tetley Tea………..it has to be YORKSHIRE TEA. Dawn x

Thanks dawn 😊💙 😂😂😂😂 I know when we watched it back afterwards I was like, why did I say tetley 😂😂😂🤦‍♂️

[@allegrosotto2126]

My last camp in the Flinders Ranges I got the knock although it was after sunrise but I was pretty annoyed as I was only just off the road. Turned out bloody city yobos had been messing things up and eventually I was given permission to stay as long as it didn’t look like I was camping… not like the old days. That viaduct was amazing , let’s see them build something like that these days! Hey Jess, how about a grated cheese sandwich for him but use soap instead 😀

[@truebluetravellers]

Hmmmm…. Allegro, I will defo be saving this idea for later 😂😂 10/10! It’s definitely the minority that ruin it for the rest of us littering and being feral! Glad they let you stay. It’s beautiful isn’t it! I get that feeling all the time, how on earth they built the things they did with the machinery they had, and yet we build something nowadays and it’s knackered in 10 years!

Really enjoying your shows, catching up on previous episodes. I live between Croatia and Kenya and spend large amounts of time working in the East African bush. In Croatia I drive what in Kenya is considered a 'toy': a LR Freelander 2. Note however that Land Rovers are not viewed seriously as off-roaders in East Africa, and as the saying goes, if you need to get somewhere, use a Land Cruiser, whereas a Land Rover is a hobby! 😂 Seriously though, if you do get to travel to East Africa, let me know.

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks so much, it’s definitely on our bucket list 💙 our favourite Landrover/ Land Cruiser quote is an Aussie one: if you want to go to the outback, take a Land Rover, if you want to come back take a Land Cruiser 😂😂😂 to be fair ours has done us proud but you can’t beat a troupe!

"i want a fiver" that is absolutely typical, as soon as i saw where you parked that night, i thought......they will be getting the old knock in the morning

[@truebluetravellers]

It’s a shame isn’t it. In hindsight it probably wasn’t the best spot to stop the night but was obviously a regularly used parking place and we got there late and were tired so thought it’d be alright. Apparently not! First time we’ve had the knock in the UK actually.

[@Lee_Proffit]

I'm with you on the parking / paying thing - if he doesn't want people camping, stick up a sign, if he wants to charge, stick up a sign. You would have asked him for his VAT number, so that you could claim it back 🙂

I've only just come by your channel recently, starting with the Sainsbury's van build and then the Arctic trip - which was awesome! I'm now wondering whether I could throw some winter tyres on my Transporter and go up there myself, or whether I need a fresh (veg) build. About the bloke's land, I would've paid him. Every inch of land in England is owned by someone. There are no wild camp rights, like there are in Scotland. You're not allowed to camp anywhere, unless you have explicit permission from the landowner. So there's no need to put signs up saying "No Camping", because that's the default setting. Like you said, a good compromise would be an honesty box. He can have a little side-hustle that helps look after the land, and people get to wake up to those gorgeous views. Anyway, can't wait for the next adventure!

[@truebluetravellers]

Now it is sat in our Lay by rather than our drive as there is no way I can push it into my drive.

Just stumbled across your page and I've been glued to the screen for the whole Landy build! You're both so funny and work very well together👏 All the clips were very informative regarding materials used and process of the build. One thing that i wanted to ask was, since you're going to Africa and might encounter river crossings or deep water, would the toilet vent with the mesh cover not let in water if the level was higher than the floor? I know it would have to be a bit extreme but it was just a query... Anyhoo, off to watch your Australian adventure👍

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks for watching mate, yep your right if we went deep enough it would come in but to be honest I wouldn’t ever go in to that deep of water as to go that deep the water would be above the door seals and I would never trust that they wouldn’t leak water in and ruin the whole thing 👍

[@charliefast6365]

can you provide a lesson in English accents? I think I have the USA and Canadian ones down but need help on all the GB and Australian and New Zealand variations. What would you call your accents? If you met me you would say US midwest/St Louis

[@truebluetravellers]

😂😂 our attempts at accents are diabolical. Jon has a bit of a mixture of an accent because he moved around so much when he was young but it’s closest to a London accent as that’s the longest he lived in a place. I’m Australian from the west coast but have picked up a fair bit of the accent from living over here for the last 10 years 💙 if you ever struggle to tell the difference between Aussie and kiwi accents kiwis say e/u instead of i so where and Aussie would say fish and chips a kiwi would sound like fush and chups 😂😂

He may have thought you were dogging and came up with the £5 thing on the spur.

[@michaellee8391]

It would have been better if the “land owner” had asked you to donate £5 to a children’s hospice, he’s getting you to pay for your stay on his land, a worthy charity is better off by £5 and the world is a slightly better place ❤

[@truebluetravellers]

Definitely, if he would of started by being polite then it would of been hard to say no really even without a charity involved but I suppose from his side he might get loads of people littering etc so is annoyed with it, there’s 2 sides to every story hey

[@larrywinning5183]

Personally we had many, many people camp overnight and longer for years on our farm. We never ever asked for a Penny and the worst problem was litter but from only a small minority. Now however a quango, the Loch Lomond National Park have taken over thousands of Acres and THEY decided on a No Camping Zone. I have had one run in from a “Ranger” who told me no one could camp here. I decide that not you and that still is the case.

[@setildes]

You were dead right not to pay him, have you thought about how you will protect yourselves in places like Africa, my go-to is a fire extinguisher and a powerful torch, both non-lethal but enough to deter most petty idiots. Sadly its something to consider nowadays.

[@truebluetravellers]

It’s a good point and a reason we always make sure we can crawl through to the cab in any camper build we make! Jons breath is normally enough to deter anyone but I’ll remember the fire extinguisher trick 😂 we keep it in an easy to reach place!

[@Jabber-ig3iw]

Don’t need any of that, just be sensible, avoid the obviously dodgy areas, especially at night, use campsites when you want to, and wildcamp away from towns and hidden from the road.

I reckon the landowner gets loads of chavs taking the piss all the time, thought you were just another and has had enough. Then after talking to you realised you were a decent bloke after all. Always two sides to a confrontation. £5, at the end I would have offered it and he probably would have refused after talking to you.

[@truebluetravellers]

Yeah for him to be the way he was I dare say he must of had some grief, I did say to him we don’t leave any trace and we also clean up rubbish where we can and carry a litter picker too to say thanks to the place we stay,

[@suecharnock9369]

I think you were half prey to the wrong side of those who live in vans and such and travel the country. I hear the 500 in Scotland are absolutely heartily sick of the idiots in vans and motorhomes. The bloke have seen you were genuine though. Leave no trace. something which you clearly abide by.

[@robfodder5575]

WRT Yorkshire and grumpy people, its why I moved away. Its just the way many people are. Normally if you give a little back, without being aggressive, an equilibrium occurs. Besides, that farmer should pay a fortune for trashing the land, overgrazed baron wasteland which is normalised. OK, we do need farming but most of the land up there has been trashed (in terms of what is natural). Edit: Ive just realised Ive become what I despise... lol ;-)
