Video Transcription

alright so bit of an impromptu video and impromptu trip and down to pass not only what's in whale [Music]

while I've been out here I have wandered across this gentleman here you still may recognize this is a Brian they are not let Brian go slightly sailor from The Simpsons so we're well into the journey now I think well for me is anyway I've arrived here today Brian's been on his own for days and we just come off quite steep and also stop a bit of a breather in this woodland here so I'm not really push crime [Music]

it isn't by you know somewhere time [Music]

yeah it's good um yeah I'm gonna be just filming some little bits on the way just flipped flip the screen on the on the camera to give you bear kind of idea what it's like there it's really good it's so green so used to like brown yeah yeah the way you define I could deciduous woodland neros I just pull a dog walk because it's just like overused isn't but this is that proper little I mean that that's the trail there you probably can't even make out what that that's the trail will fall and so there's not much to it I really I really like these like Rocky Wars moss covered stuff I'm just rambling on now you haven't seen the trail but we think that's about I couldn't work out whether it's a sheep trial or just a little Cherie and I think it was so okay yeah I just like this is John and rob and dave and big Chris what kind of what terrain was it you was in yesterday right the plains of Rohan but bog it was ridiculous very very so yeah it isn't just me that does it then so there you go guys

I dunno what I'm doing you might see this on Brian as well but just found this lichens grow throughout the bark of this oak tree which is really cool don't see much of this round here so I'm glad that sorted out there we go call is that so we're proper healthy healthy forest it's really cool we've got these like little streams everywhere which I really like now it feels the actual water is really cool I get a bit Sun glare on there for you guys

it's reckon he'll again she's pretty hard work for me I'm used to having like a day pack on I've got to use two day trips and just little overnight is making good progress so we're what ground we cover then directors get onto for walking all right okay so that's New York we need you on four so is that pretty much like on track

yeah we've gotta go I want to be one of the comes quite close to the car tonight because then we can get to my car in the morning

we're used to cameras or my moustache up [Music]

skills hush what rather wet feet anyway are we gonna do hard dogs doing that over here tonight just wish we'd walk them through yeah it's nice proper clear clean war isn't it [Music]

that's right bank money decide to put the camera down struggle with the friend whose have been high for me that meds is Brian filming me filming him that's awesome it's a nice day well I think I think we've just found a spot for lunch

what's up oh cool there that South y'all get a proper shot okay is it dry them off a little bit haven't we a little bit nothing with too far off either at the top of this hill there are fields I reckon he's just not that bright okay every step I took I slid back on the moss every when you go it's warming up quite a lot as well you probably can't release it through the trees on the camera but yeah I got Trek what's the top of that so it's actually quite steep so we made it out there how often the forest now a funny funny fund moorland that's our view how can the cameras is not doing it yeah yeah so walk along this way and didn't think to stop and turn around till we both kind of needed a breather behind us yeah didn't realize about this that's awesome isn't it it really is this is what we're currently oh you finally find an open bit it's pretty gnarly

it's what traipsing through so you've got all ultra lightweight and modern Avenue what was the problem with that but I just brought some my usual tradition of stuff and it's provided us with a a nice way to get over so there you go for all you haters traditional stuff best old way win in hey this way I think we gotta keep on right haven't we it's just so cool over here it's getting pretty hot out there isn't it it's quiet hey ghost there's a bright patch over there could be it I'm sort of looking for any where the Sun can get through better I thought it's good that I'm really horrible right properly knotted together stuff yeah we it's really hard to navigate in those like comments is that why we get to a woman follow the wall then quarter of a kilometer a long way through that though three nice and forest is ruling [Applause]

[Music]

yeah I load my talk yes I'm gonna stop filming so I'll pull myself back on an actual trail after going through waist high brambles the spiky astre he's the world has ever seen down steep slopes well still be in countless bogs yeah

there was no lighting at all told you we should have gone through Moria we are back on were the actual nice little entrails there's going off into the distance up there we spotted somewhere in the distance where you're going to try and come to that reservoir and we just try to work out exactly I get to enough good it's just arrived after co-op that distant the area in which we're gonna count it so it's gonna be yeah you better show that bit crisis immediately is bit of his be a lot we decided to would you both to have been with coincidence I think says she want a nice plan for it sounds a bit disheartened rice oil it's all plantation it's pretty good it's pretty nice I quite like it [Music]

suitable spots Belfort path may be overlooking this Lake Camp over because I'm gonna chill have a bit of brew kind of thing

relax Oh takes about half us for the afternoon now so it's been up ever bit tough down the feet first time he's not used to hike anymore but it has been good I'm going to switch to the proper camera in a bit so it's a good shot si Connor was gonna say it's gone Oh looking for a nice area we both said that I was gonna say messing around this and the whole thing I'm good at this whole D style it's appropriate for the day so quite an airy to come from [Music]

[Music]

Brian's got his really nice homemade dehydrated food presently I had to rush because I came here straight from my proper holiday and ran to Tesco midnight last night after whatever I could I spoke most of it on the floor already and because there's everbilly kind just isn't up to cooking on a stove I mean it's not that I do often and I just got some rice with chicken flavor but it's gonna be good I'm hungry so anything tastes good at this stage I'm not very good at cooking on a stove I've discovered but I've got the world's but ridiculously large gas canister as well try not to spill this batch but that's our view while we're eating which I think's pretty pretty amazing and it's so quiet as well not all right so I camps out Bryon's just doing nothing this house just watch it and YouTube videos because we've got amazingly we've got that full signal Wi-Fi an amazing view like it's just like a perfect camp we have we've had food

oh we're gonna brew yeah I have a brief there we go but we still got the scary woods yes it's really horrible Brian doesn't like change but that's our view at the minute how incredible is that only seven under peace he's a big celebrity now our Brian so it's born in obviously uh Brian's on York

I'm not cuz I'm lazy and the weather took a bit of a turn for the worst in the night yeah I don't know that you can hear that because the mic is quite far away in the microphones not great on this phone book yes apparently the weather is gonna get worse later on so what's how is it gonna get worse yeah yeah but it's a good spot evenings raining yeah I thought you might because this tarp was like blowing right up against me sir slow boots

so that's us packed up ready to go hey just hitting the trail again we've got two kilometers back to the car yeah so 2k back to Brian's car he's gonna drive me back to mine time to go home real quality little trip on it yeah absolutely

I'm so glad you came he's totally sold me on lightweight camping like I feel like a heathen you have like got like half lightweight stuff like quads together and then like a bunch of ditional stuff thrown in and just the lightweight stuff is way more practical for this kind of trip so I've learned a lot which is good high light learning definitely a balance so yeah it's raining a bit now so the grounds pretty slippery as well so I'm gonna stop filming so I can see where I'm going rid of the brightest brother stop like literally crushed the crawl-through because it's so overgrown it's alright mate Oh money [Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

Gogi goods good won't bill do post Oaks D you can lift the trail back on the floor again literally about three inches from where I last signed off and we're still in here really put your chest up against your knees mate to what see you don't scrub all your bag off lean further forward that's it Oh what my stood up that's what we just came through on chicken coop just outside of Mount in a pond bizarre all right I couldn't see that over that wall not far off now he's pretty pretty close firewood my love of a pile of firewood this is the last leg of the trip so how far is it out of the car so we've just come down that which was interesting but we lost up there but as well I'm pretty pretty wet yeah my son never buy morel shoes they suck nice easy short walks on the day this is supposed to the end we've got that twice today although it is well we've got twice I've got it makes your minds ok mamas are like a secured carport baby's gonna work

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

there's enough to be stored pressure in the battery

so I make smell like 1 out of every 10 miles problems getting it working [Music]

[Music]

roughly about having 10 converters on the road it took us two days to walk in ten minutes the drivers that's what I've been up there is scaring this cliff face I see filling it up whoa it's pretty grittier drove on the opposite way like type of product number two is my car gonna be where we left it it's not truly body we surely paid ya buddy Scott well I've got that loads of bushcraft gear in it cuz I haven't had time to unpack it I've been taken into custody that way that way right yeah my brain with them keeping it tells me what my vibe I got mad at my girlfriend for doing that straight up yeah cause that's what you saw all the windows are in place wait coffee coffee coffee let's do it I'm gonna grab my dry shoes at the car I don't know my dry clothes and stuff so we've been for coffee we've had a pasty we've been in the gift shop we don't need or want and that kind of go home so I do thanks Ali just let stumble it out the woods Brian it's been good send some good roots looking forward seen obviously my first two days on you ain't doing that because you just slapped on you oh like know what I talked to I have not I've not got long I think - well you only got a ten minute video cameras - out right then catch y'all later you
