You're living the dream mate and so is your beautiful dog. You suggested you were a failure in a previous video (or words to that effect because you can't hold down a relationship) but that's not the case. You're the polar opposite. Look at the fabulous life you're giving that little dog. You can't put a price on that. Humans have forgotten what the valuable things in life really are. You're a glowing success pal.

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Fabulous...what a good doggo Finn is, not taking any notice of the sheep...and the views and the THRILL of those jets ❤

[@harrydance1969]

You can have a beer on a van camp? You’re allowed 2 units? The same 2 you enjoy at the end of a walk and then drive home?

[@FPL_Wanderers]

You manage to capture what the lakes is about in every video. I grew up in the lakes but moved away some years ago. Your videos scratch that bit of my brain that misses it

[@jonm4989]

After shredding my nerves watching the England v Slovakia this video was just what I needed to calm down. As always, thank you Glenn.

[@lyndamarland9405]

Lol 😂 me too 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@emilygough3442]

Me as well! 😅

[@willbo2000]

I'll triple that 😅

[@LeeStevens-e1j]

over paid prima donna boys chasing a ball? Watch a proper sport... I'd rather guide my dad into my mum than watch that shite!

[@andrewsimmons-n3e]

And me

[@davemayers9342]

A friend and I were up the top of the Langdales a few years back. It was a midweek day and very quiet and peaceful, when all of a sudden we heard a deep throbbing rumble. We had no idea what it was, when slowly a plane came up the valley below us. Turns out it was a Spitfire, and we were actually higher than the plane. Amazing and surreal moment, never to be forgotten.

[@pigeondave123]

(respectfully) as a fairly casual cyclist, middle of the road because it minimises the risk of dodgy overtakes, means you can only overtake when it's actually safe to do so, you also avoid sudden drains and stuff like that and have space to move out of the way for potholes. (hope this helps) also cycling through the countryside is an experience like no other, although i tend to avoid riding in roads like this in favour of quieter back roads and do also tend to pull over if traffic is queueing up behind me

[@PK-jr2bm]

Here right to the end. Brilliant walk, loved it, and Finn of course ❤

[@mariaj1719]

Happy to say we are tail and charlies. Love the Buttermere walk and Fin of course!

[@nigglemoth]

Another tail-end Charlie saying thanks to you and Finn for taking us on your walks, sharing the views and your knowledge of the area too.

[@AlexT0412]

It’s absolutely no problem staying to the end of your videos, I love them, they’re always beautifully filmed and I find them so relaxing 😊. Hiking, vanning or camping I thoroughly enjoy it all❤

[@phillewis3108]

I made it to the end. Just love your videos. I’m still astounded to think that after moving in March, all of this is now 15 minutes from my door! In fact, I think we’ll come home from Keswick via Newlands and Buttermere this afternoon. I can’t express how it makes me feel to be able to say that. We’re so, so fortunate! Thanks for the videos. Love watching on a Saturday morning, prior to getting out there in a Sunday.

[@rosiebanks718]

Absolutely watched until the end. Always enjoy your videos, and the lovely Finn.

[@paulbarber3324]

Fantastic! After a long day at work, just what I needed, thank you! As for Finn, star of the show! Beautiful pooch in every way!!!

[@curtiso779]

Your content is so peaceful and tranquil to watch, and inspires me to get as much as possible around where I live near the great Yorkshire Dales!

[@4potslite169]

Of course still here! Wouldn’t have missed one step, gate, or stick!

[@sambeeson2597]

Another amazing adventure, thank you for taking us all along for the ride, literally. Finn, she was. Epic as always. You are great Glenn but she has our hearts! You are looking good Finn.’ Love the van format with Finn, works very well. Waffle well that’s great too😊!

[@AngeMorley]

Tail end Charlie here🙌😂 and oh hey Finn, so blummin cute bless your tiny paws. Thanks for this as always Glenn. Loved every single second.. Ange 🙏

[@paularoberts5141]

It looks so gorgeous where you are .I wish I could do walks like that again but I'm not able to anymore . So it's nice watching your videos instead .

[@CaroleFrenchFox]

Never mind the jets, that was a nice red E-Type driving past. ❤❤❤❤ Hello Finfinn!! Missed your little moosh. xx

[@willbo2000]

Enjoying this so much, savouring it over a few watch sessions, amazing aircraft action, cooking shenanigans, super cool boss dog Finn, that hot choccy saved the day! And still more to watch! Couldn't ask for more 👍👍👍

[@superseacrow9463]

I was on Scafell,Lingmell and Great End at the weekend and actually got bored of been buzzed by F-35s and Typhoons. Not gonna complain the were stunning machines.

[@christinevause4770]

Looking forward to your next video. Hope it's coming soon as we love the way you present them,it feel as though we are really out there with you ....and of course we love ❤❤❤❤ Finn, what a star😂

[@paulyoung5393]

Of course we made it to the end! Loved this video. The typical drive up Newlands (I still miss the old purple house), Newlands Hause, Rannerdale Knotts, which I last climbed in April, and the beautiful walk around Buttermere. Thanks to you and Finn for taking us with you.

[@Muddipaws1308]

Lovely to see Finn enjoying herself.

[@bpslodge]

I watched until the end and it was not a chore at all, a great way to pass a bit of time on Sunday evening after a long day at work. Thank you 👍👍

[@antoinettefrance4953]

I'm still here, I no l9nger am able to walk without a crutch, and my balance is shot, so by watching you, I get to see place's I can no longer get out to see. So thank you.

[@carolginther9996]

I always watch until the end. Great to see Finn again too.

[@ayabokti161]

Aww The Finn is back ❤ I love the simplicity of your van & your camping 🏕 ❤️....no fuss, no muss....🎉❤

[@dianepatten8594]

Yes, I really enjoyed this video and being a tail end Charlie. Lovely to see sweet Finny, she’s a darling. Scenery was spectacular. Thank you Glen. 🇨🇦🙂

[@andybrown3508]

Great videos as always. It’s great to see all those places in the lakes me and my better half use to walk . As both my knees are knackered and can’t walk for any distance. Lots of your videos give me and wife so many great memories back . Cheers

[@danh2310]

The jets never fail to make my hairs stand on end nothing better than seeing them flying in-between the mountains.

[@mattuc2023]

Enjoyed the whole video, that tunnel on the walking trail blew my mind. I’d love to experience Buttermere myself one day.

[@David-zt4hq]

I always get to the end of your videos by breaking them up; I'll watch 10,12 or 15 minutes at a time and then keep revisiting after a few days or weeks. So nice to have the Lake District as your backyard and playground. You have given us a taste of Scotland, perhaps you could work your magic on some great places in Wales such as Tryfan which I would love to climb but am challenged to find the opportunity. Stay out there and keep the camera rolling.

[@jillweare1563]

Happy to be a Tail end Charlie 🎉 really loved the format of this. Please do more! Had a bit of everything. Lovely to see Finn again

[@WanderingDutch]

You deserve significantly more views than these vlogs accumulate. Keep up the great work.

[@seatea63]

Always make it to the end, wouldn't want to take my eyes off it in case I missed something that I could later replicate.. Great video as always, great host and of course Queen Finn

[@gaylinlyons6534]

Great van trip. The morning walk is spectacular!!! Holding my breath as you pass other vehicles on the back roads. They sure are narrow. Thank you! - Ontario Canada

[@lindafielding6733]

What a lovely video. I enjoy both your fell adventures and your nights in the van. Great to see Buttermere again, I haven’t been there since the 1970s when I plodded up Fleetwith Pike and took a rowing boat out on the lake. Must go back soon

[@neilmusgrove4668]

Walked the far side of Buttermere a few weeks ago, really lovely walk, thanks for this video, as usual you showed us some lovely places, and you are an amusing and informative companion, love your chat, even better to have Finn along!

[@elizabethchapman8788]

You excelled yourself on this one Glenn...Total enjoyment right til the end..and love that outro music too!

[@grahamtowler1761]

As you say Buttermere looks alpine,great video again a double whammy with chance to win your printed edition

[@flyingvisit2]

An absolute pleasure to watch, just when you think the vlogs can't get any better along comes another one and another one....Superb viewing. Thanks Glenn, you've done it again. 👍😘

[@janehodgett959]

Finn is so well behaved such a great companion 😃

[@markparsons7269]

Forever a tail end charlie. Lovely walk. Thx as always Glenn

[@annew4448]

Loving every moment. I’ve only just found your channel and love your peaceful walks/ tours. Thank you for sharing.

[@AmanSingh-oq1xj]

Buttermere is so pretty. I've only ever done road trips around the Lake District and Buttermere is one of my most favorite places and one I make sure to drive past. You've just opened my eyes to so many trails to hike around it. Thank you for that.

[@ayabokti161]

I come to the Black Crag posts to relax. And I can read the comments. Your right ✅️ I never see bad comments on here ❤❤❤

[@Dagrdottir]

What a beautiful place...around the lake was definitely a fantastic choice for you to make...a bit of everything and stunning in every direction, so thanks for taking us along.

[@Warwick3-h5h]

This is the best outdoors channel by far 👍

[@rrek88]

Love how chill Finn is

[@barbarawilliams5621]

What a lovely video! It was good to see Fenn again, and the second walk around the lake was great, I felt like we were walking along with you-if we had been we would’ve brushed that horse fly off your back! Watching Fenn swim to cool off was so cute! Thank you so much Glenn! And please consider longer trips- we so enjoy them! I have always wanted to visit England, and between you and “Goin Solo” (another English camper/ walker) I can finally see it!😁 Please tell Finn her American buddies love her- and her daddy, of course! You always give us a chuckle (or ten or more!) 😁🐶P.S. We are proud to be “Tail End Charlie’s” enjoying a breakie or a beverage with you!

[@robbayliss9010]

Great to see Finn out and about, what a cutie she is. Loving the summer night time lapses, really captures the magic of the place. Your vids are quality and great to chill out with. Thanks Glenn.

[@deekelley891]

Tail end Charlene here- loved it!! A very enjoyable hike with amazing views. Thank you very much.

[@NurseBarbaraP]

Enjoy ALL of your videos! Love your photography! Thank you for producing such great content. 😊

[@julieyilmaz8408]

I have just come back from my first trip to the Lakes. I took my dog Rose to Keswick. I am now in love with the Lakes. I really wanted to go to Buttermere but don’t drive and the buses only run on weekends in Winter😢. I am planning to come back in May and Buttermere will be visited. It looks absolutely stunning and I know I will be loving it as much as you.

[@RobinSkelhorn-gt1cc]

Love watching your videos Glenn, quality . Hope to see you out & about . Thank you for bringing the lakes a little closer to the east coast . Finns awesome by the way . 👍

[@elizabethmaclean-kl1ul]

Fab video. What a stunning part of the world!!! Love the van trips.

[@sarahdavies7851]

The scenery was stunning. Thanks for taking us along with you so we can see it.

[@onzlobucket]

Excellent! Thank you for all your content. We loved this one as not everyone can get up to the high places. 👍👍

We are tail end Charlies! Love these videos Mr Crag! I hope you are doing well and that you know we are all here for you! Also, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FINN!!!

[@mickymillersson4376]

There’s nowt like enjoying a walk with a dog. Thanks for sharing.

[@zarniwoopb6078]

Excellent as always, enjoyed the whole thing. Always great to see Finn.

[@TiberiusWallace]

58:05 I once trecked four miles through the Pentland hills in the snow in January with a Stanley No5 plane and a rasp to fix a gate that annoyed the hell out of me that needed a hoof to close like that one.

[@deebee1283]

Tail ender , love the video. No longer well enough to make these walks like i use to. So I love being able to join you on them...heaven and wonderful memories. Thankyou . 🌸🌿

[@nitsujnagorb7691]

I always watch your videos to the end mate ! The views around Buttermere are superb from every single angle !!

[@Michael-wk5tf]

My wife and I stayed to the end of we like you so along with your little friend. We got into you on your Scottish van trip sometime ago we hope you will do more of the islands with your enthusiasm.

[@duckypam]

I loved this video, what another astonishingly beautiful place. Loving the van video, I like your ideas about putting in a window and such. Don't forget the proper gear for tea next time though.. We live in a heavy cycling town. As soon as the TDF starts, the bicyclists manifest, riding six wide in the middle of the road. I feel for you.

[@matthewburnley5100]

Great video of one of my favourite areas of The Lakes. Nice to see The Finnmeister too!

[@philmcc8106]

Brilliant video! That is a must for me vamping in the very same spot with my dog Finlay the Border Terrier and as I will be moving up to Cumbria in a few weeks time so yes a must! Thanks Glenn loved the vid!

[@nickfry7705]

Beautifully filmed thank you. Walked around Buttermere both ways a number of times and this really captures it, particularly avoiding people spoiling the view. We normally pop into Sykes Farm tea rooms to finish where they do some pretty awesome cakes and pies.

[@richardpearson5036]

We're here Glen, true tail end Charlie's, we're absolutely loving the content and young finis pure entertainment. Loving it pal, crack on and we'll be here on all future trips wi thee. 😊

[@mickgrundy4615]

Enjoyed this glen , what a gem of a place. Thanks for sharing.❤

[@AnthonyRichardson-s8r]

Reference electric hook up, I had mine put under bonnet next to battery. Saves cutting hole in panel and maintains stealth look. Had done in northumberland if you ever need company contact, good price. Love the videos, cheers

[@peterh8970]

Absolutely loved this. Watched every last minute. Thanks for the lovely walk around a lovely lake. Fantastic pictures. Even breakfast looked great. I always like to see familiar places in youtube videos. Makes me want to be there! All the best.

[@AdieJ62]

More power to us "Tail-end Charlies"! A lovely change of pace Glenn. Buttermere is, indeed, beautiful. The majesty of Honister Pass impressed me as I went up it....The Buttermere circuit was a delight to walk on a warm, sunny 2nd of May...but what blew me away was the drive through the Newlands Valley to Keswick. That drive made me fall in love with the Lake District!! I'm up in the Lakes again in a couple of weeks, around the Ambleside area this time....and I can't wait!!

[@HeatherPark-ij7yz]

Brilliant . Thank you so.much. Me and Mick the collie are going to do this... me wearing my new Black crag T shirt!

[@Lakes_David]

We're definitely Tale End Charlies! We spend a lot of time in the area, but it's always lovely to revisit these places with you, so thanks for taking us along. Amy and David.

[@andrewtraynor7854]

Absolutely gorgeous walk around the lake. Enjoy the heat while it lasts, I'm sure it won't be around for long

[@dt8ustotten285]

LOVE YOU FINN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes I made it all the way to the end... how could you pass on all that beauty! Re: van.. since you are going to make the $$ investment to add a stealth window.. you may wish to think about letting it slide open for air. I would look at storage capacity or putting solar on the roof? Sounds like it is quite an exciting time for you with so many possibilities! Glad I am along for the ride. Thanks for sharing! Love from the USA!

[@Anna-vv6rs]

I’ve been waiting for this one up, nice to see you up in our neck of the woods! We did Newlands to Buttermere probably on the same day as you filmed this and I thought at the time I would love to see you do a video in this area!

[@hanneliewiese3477]

What a lovely hike. Had such a lekker laugh at Finn rolling around in poop and the fact that you had to sleep in the Van with her 😅 You really love your food & beer .... makes me smile. What beautiful scenery this last stretch of your hike ... stunning.

[@ayabokti161]

Wow! Love the doggy friendly restaurant at the end ❤❤❤ I wanna live there with my well behaved Jack Russell. Beautiful 🎉

[@barryhaggis9601]

Great video! Love this style of video and can’t wait to get out there myself!

[@juliansykes960]

I’m a tail end Charlie!!! Great to hear about the trips planned outside the Lake District. Love to see some trips around Wales.

[@mk1aquatic739]

So much of interest in this video! Nice relaxing watch- just what was needed as well after watching England scrape through. Those Apaches are something else- saw 2 of them recently down in Hampshire. Never realised our military had them.

[@davewood9888]

Yeah the Army Air Corps have operated the Apache since 2001, around 60 or 70 in service I believe. The one shown flying here would have been Dutch, they are on exercise in the UK at the moment operating out of Carlisle airport.

[@louisesmith3860]

Wonderful video stunning views all round and off course the gorgeous finn xx

[@KarenMackie-kh4jn]

Phenomenal!!!! Just breathe taking scenery. In England we are truly blessed with the most amazing and versatile and diverse countryside. The shame of it is that so few people ever enjoy it. Thank you for sharing you and Finny sure had an awesome overnight trip 🥾🥾🐾🐾🇬🇧

[@louisecreed5460]

Just subscribed, I love that it’s just you & your dog amongst nature with no music tracks spoiling the vibe of being where you are...so nice🙌🌾🌾🌾thank you!

[@davewood9888]

As a regular visitor to the area the roads are so familiar during the start of your vlog, and at first I was kinda surprised you didn’t go to Buttermere via Honister but in fairness that route to Moss Force for your initial walk and overnight is beautiful and worth the pain of the opposing traffic on the way up and ultimately going back via Honister made for a great circular route. That Apache you saw in the area was very likely Royal Netherlands Air Force, they are on exercise TAC BLAZE as it’s being called operating out of Carlisle airport.

[@deborahrouse3330]

Wow what a stunning place, thank you for sharing your video.

[@rpark8265]

As an occasional motorist,cyclist ,tractor driver,animal drover and walker I use the roads.They’re not there for a single transport category! Thanks for another entertaining video👍

[@BlackCrag]

It was simply a harmless dig at a few cyclists that I know who follow the channel. I'm all for bikes and cycling in general 👌

[@rpark8265]

@@BlackCrag created some comments though 😂

[@mitchelljsawyers]

Thank you, that was a lovely walk, albeit a long walk around the lake... the tunnel was a pleasant surprise. I've never been to England, but the quaint villages are beautiful and I would love to visit. I'm from Kentucky, the eastern mountainous region, but now live in the bluegrass region... both are very different, but beautiful. Please, don't change your format, it's like being on a walk with you, and the video quality is superb.

[@DAoutdoors]

Hi Glenn, wonderful video, was glued to every minute of that. Always nice to see Finneus out again. Thank you for sharing your adventure, all the best, Dave

[@wolfhound456]

Like these overnight camp videos. Just bought a converted van and looking for nice overnight locations and this is definitely on my list to visit.

[@gavinmcleanmathieson6357]

Loved this ! very relaxing and chilled . Keep up the long videos.
