    Thanks so much for your time and effort in the detailed filming, editing, and uploading. Thanks and gratitude to Mrs. In the Woods for loaning you out to us.
    Another peaceful and tranquil paddle/camp in the hallowed halls of Simon Adventures that I will watch many times over.
    I would like to see some of your Landy repairs and what you have to do to keep the chariot of the Gods running.

      My 1st bushcrafter to watch was Greg Ovens Rocky MT..Bushcraft, followed shortly by Bertram in the woods, Swedwoods, Corporal's Corner, Exploring with Marlo C who just got going not long ago & Simon, more or less in order of appearance.
      I'd be hard pressed to say who has better locations between Simon & Swedwoods, maybe followed closely by Greg Ovens & sometimes, Camping With Steve.
      Marlo's been getting some cool places out & around "Cow Hampshire" ( NH) recently so she's in the running!

    Simon, your video shows the joy of being outdoors in the "off season". I find my favourite evening walks are in the dead of winter, during a snowfall, when most others are squirreled away. The streets are hushed and and the snow makes everything look pleasant! The Norfolk Broads are a treasure! Thanks for the video!

    Opening scene is that gorgeous canoe. When I began watching your channel, you were building it. I was immediately hooked. This looks like a delightful trip as well. The Abby was probably my favorite due to the beauty of the stone/brick work. Stunning.
