That camp was just what you needed Bro. The simplicity of the camp made it special and good to see Mark. I agree with your Kate comments, cancer can be a rough ride for anyone but folding money talks even when it comes to healthcare. I can’t complain about my chemotherapy, radiotherapy or the surgeries but am finding it very hard to live with the permanent damage caused by the treatment. Good news is that the hair I lost has grown back. Hope to catch up with you at some point, take care, lots of love Mo 🤗

Great vid, I agree, one rule for the masses and no rules for those that can afford it, the shameful reality of the society we live in. Awesome, simple set up and a great alternative to a hammock. I always keep my boots in a bag at night when I'm under a tarp, don't want any squished spider bad karma post camping 😉

Great video matey. New to your channel. Couldn't agree more about the Kate thing buddy, I do like the royals but like you say money talks quite often. I had oral cancer in 2017 (now clear thankfully) and had to manage on SSP. Different world my friend. All the best.

As for what you said I totally understand and I am self employed so I can’t even get a cold and think about time off as I just could not afford to be off work.

I like Marks idea, it's a similar principle to my Bashamok. Half hammock and half 3x1.5m basha that lace together for a 3x3m tarp. Can also use as sidewalls with another tarp above. Aaaaynd I reckon I could run one as a gnomehole privacy screen 😂 100% agree on the All in, no point in taking a full meal home lol.

Hello from Canada Allan. True what you say about Princess Kate. I've been dealing with my own cancer and by looking at her face, I can tell exactly what she is going through, so my heart goes out to her. In a lot of ways, you have to be your own quarter back when it comes to follow up with Oncologists, etc. Seems the health care systems are so overloaded that it's easy to get forgotten or over looked. Keep fighting the good fight, and keep them videos coming!

I love your frankness and honesty. Your follow up medical care has been negligent on the part of your providers. The squeaky wheel gets the oil. 4 years is one helluva long time without a follow up. Granted I do not know diddly squat about medical insurance over your way but it sounds shoddy at best.

No insurance, its a service provided by the state. I do have blood tests, but it would be nice to see someone now and then.
