I love this “camping” that Brits do. This is my type of camping; I can actually enjoy it! This is respecting the elements with no fear of dying! I thoroughly enjoy this.
Think that "tent" would be great in a house during a winter power outage. Inside a big tent during winter camping. Kids would love it as a fort. I think it will come in handy.
Inside one of those mesh hexagonal pop-up gazebos with a floor and rainfly.. I have 10 and 13' models that I can't wait to take cold camping for a week to test my new diesel heater. This with a cot would be perfect for that.
Years ago I learned it is much easier to drag a long limb back to camp and cut it up there opposed to carrying back armloads of unwieldy firewood from a distance. An added benefit is you have sawdust in camp to use to help start the fire.
I can't tell you how badly I needed a laugh today. I was with everyone else yelling" no don't cut the pole yet". This actually is exactly what I'm looking for along with that body suit sleeping bag. The latter to keep bugs off while I'm sleeping. Hope you get feeling better. I look forward to your show every week
Kent you do a really good job of making it seem like the viewers are there with you. I honestly almost felt bad I couldn't help get firewood or help setup something.
My husband was an incredible cook and from what I've seen of your videos so are you. We used to tent camp a lot (younger years...lol) andy husband had a trunk that he made into a portable kitchen. Filled with all his tools and spices. However, right now I'm really hating you..... I'm now craving nachos. Sadly my husband passed 6 yrs ago. I dearly miss him, but I also dearly miss his cooking. Lol
You're a lucky gal ! Many men wish they had a wife that appreciated them as you do ! Whenever the memories you shared make you smile...that's one of the greatest things he left you !!!
Don't miss his cooking, copy his recipes from what you remember and write them down in a book to pass on to the next generation. My mobility is nackered at the moment because I need to have a leg amputated but surgeons aren't quite ready yet, but I decided last summer that I was going to do exactly that before things went bad. Once I can get around again I'm going to carry on doing it because I was having fun making up and experimenting on recipes with my daughter and one day maybe the book will go off to any potential grandkids to carry on. I reckon your husband would agree that you should have fun with it because it sounds like something he would like.
The fact you always camp with a different makes me tune in everytime. I get bored of watching the generic tent camping sometimes. Sometimes I want to see an unusual camp, and your videos hit the spot everytime. Thank you for being different
Some of quirkyist products available all delivered up with a genuine smile. The recipes are equally amazing. I'm 65 and had never heard of duck, waffles and maple syrup, from a previous post, tried it the other night and ... shocked, it was so good. God love ya Andy.
Thanks for the content. I have an autoimmune disease and I've been very depressed the last few months. Recently discovered your channel and I like the little quiet break I get watching your vids.
Hope you're doing ok. Hopefully weather is improving for you wherever you are. My ex wife had autoimmune issues. Appreciate that wherever 1 autoimmune problem is, many others often keep it company. Best wishes to you anyway and hope you're able to rest wherever you need to.
I love your camping outings ... it's not just the shelter, but you give us the full joy of the outdoor experience - your proper meals on the campfire are a delight (and an inspiration)!
I love watching Andy camp and all that goes into it but you know what I love the most it's the Camping Chef Andy he makes the food perfectly and the way he eats and describes it is enjoyable 😀 I get so hungry 😂. I could just watch hours of Andy cooking and eating plus his voice is calming to me and I love his zest for cooking and camping. 🎉❤ Shout Out To You Andy!!! 😅
I really have been enjoying all the experimentation with shelter building, a lot of very creative thoughts regarding materials and design. Not only is it very fun to see how each shelter works out. But it's great to break out of the box and consider some new approaches. This gentleman is not afraid of failure and I applaud his inventiveness. Good show !
He deserves all the views, he puts in good effort to do different things and cook nice food, not eating freeze dried meals all the time like on some other channels.
The box reminds me of the way I once insulated my tent ceiling and walls with a quilt so I could sleep outside in it in -25C weather. I live in Canada.
Watching from South Africa.I really enjoyed watching this one. You put a smile in my evening just before our power utility (Eskom) cut all power for the next two hours. We call it loadshedding and we get up to a total of four to nine hours of power cuts per day. It sucks, but if it gets worse at least I've picked up some tips from you. Hope you're feeling better.😊
@@bonniestingfellow734 It's a scramble. You have to buy a generator or install an inverter. With frequent cuts the inverters can't charge properly which has led to loss of life unfortunately.
I have the Decathlon Air Bed base's and you have to put a lot more pressure in them using a high pressure hand pump. I believe about 6psi. They are basically made of the same material as you get with Air Tents. I use them for camping with the family and they are so comfortable when inflated properly.
Nice one mate. I've done similar down here in Australia, for both hot and cold camping. But using wool. I basically made up a liner to my tent, bigger than that though.. in the heat, you want plenty of room inside, so it cuts the radiant heat of the sun, but still enough air flow so body heat doesn't build up. It amazed me what a difference it made. 35 degrees outside, and a noticeable drop inside, like being under a shady tree. In the cold, less room inside, pitching the tent lower like your setup, and closing up the openings. I picked up the idea from a mediaeval reenactment camp. Some of those guys were using wool. I reckon I'll give feather down doonas a go next.. Nice idea with the nachos too. I'll give that a go too.
That 'bed' looks quite a number! One thing I would want underneath it all times is a reflecting pad to keep some body heat and try to stop cold coming from the ground.. What a unique setup you had there, I didn't even know that such exists for bunkbeds, lol!
Love your video, Andy. I'm a grown-up who's never quite gotten over making cubby houses, and that's why I love all these camps you set up. As for cooking! You take more trouble than I do - I'm tired of preparing meals after a hundred years of being a housewife...
God bless you Andy ! I’m a die hard Simon fan and obviously I’m your fan too now . I respect ya so much out there In The wind n not feeling 100 💯 I send you all the healing ❤️🩹 light and love my bro
I need a Dutch oven.. I remember at the cub scout camp we went to with all the families in one big camp out, and it was always the same thing every year. We went down a line and filled a foil sheet with ground beef, frozen potatoes and frozen veggie mix, seasoned it, wrapped it and cooked it on the coals. And then for dessert, this one dad/scoutmaster in the troop would get his enormous Dutch oven and make this amazing apple cake recipe, nestled it in the coals and covered it and then when it was done everyone got a piece. It was so good. And then the morning when we were leaving, someone would provide a buttload of store-bought pastries like donuts, croissants, Danishes, like a _mountain_ of boxed pastries, so no one had to make any breakfast and we could focus on packing up. I would eat so many danishes and no one would tell us to stop, even our parents because it was just so many pastries they usually had to send some home with people.
I love this story! We did the same thing as Girl Guides. Foil dinners. We didn’t get an apple cake though. We usually made a dessert with graham wafers, pudding, and bananas in layers. That was good too. 😊😊
Remember, if you ever buy a _Le Creuset_ one, they have a superb comprehensive guarantee, and will repair it pretty much forever. For nothing. I've built up a collection of several different sizes and types - treated with respect, they will last you a lifetime. 🤍
@@elizabethandersen6068 I make that for my family a lot because my mom made it a lot when I was a kid, I use 'Nilla Wafers, bananas, pudding and whipped cream, I added the whipped cream as an adult because I love the lightness contrasting with the rich pudding :) so good.
Ok, I am embarrassed to admit how late to the party I am in finding this channel. But now that I'm here I can say Thank You, what a lovely job you do. Been sick the past couple days with a stomach bug so safe to say I've been binging as much as I can. Thank you again from the good old USA here in the Adirondacks of Upstate New York 😊
I finally found a guy doing stuff the way it is meant to be done. All in the name of a good time. Try something new try something fun if it doesn’t work it doesn’t work no big deal even like the way he cooks if you like everything separate then you throw everything in a pot it all taste even better if you cook it together. I’d love a man who thinks outside the box. I saw that big orange box and I thought oh my God he’s going to sleep in a coffin. But after watching the whole video I might be willing to give it a try just so I can say I did it. He’s not a purist but he’s a good human being to have around. I would go camping with him anytime. Thanks for taking the time and sharing with the rest of us that don’t get to go do it quite as often as you. Respect from an old man in the USA, you are appreciated
Handy hint dude use hockey straps ( elastic tie downs) for your tarp ,that way your tarp has some play with the wind and shouldnt need any adjustment during the night, I've been doing this for fifty odd years, hardly ever fails,
Those bed bases are really good and very sturdy, but you need a good pump to get the pressure right, you have to put a fair bit of air in them. Great video.
I love how you just casually lug a great big Dutch oven out into the woods with you 😂 But seriously, I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing what you’re cooking up as well as all your ingenious camping setups.
Confusion is Not Good when ur in the bush, but u got it down pat. Improvisation always comes in Handy !! Great Adventures & Tips Andy, Thanks Take Care B Safe 🇨🇦
What a great camping idea. Makes me wanna go camping. Haven't done it for years. I used to live in the lake District where I've been camping in the woods as a child plenty of times. Getting fresh air and building a tent or shelter and collecting wood 🪵🪓. Love your channel.
If you added cornmeal instead of oats you’d have Scrapple. Form it into a block, slice and brown. An old time southern American favorite. Another great adventure with Andy!
Yummy! My Nanny used to make me scrapple for breakfast and I'd beg to have it for supper too! I haven't had any for so long. I'm in Indiana, Nanny lived in Virginia. I've never seen scrapple in any grocery here. Thanks for a tasty memory!
i find your videos sooo relaxing, the cooking, the diffrent sleeping arrangements, the views, and even your voice is calming, its just a very relaxing type of video. loved this video🏕️⛺
You're right Andy. That King Camp bed base needs to be inflated until the sides are really stiff. Also, it works best with the top that's made for it. I've seen others who have it, and they've all said the same thing, which is they've tried other mats with it, but none of them work as well as the one made for it. Great camp though!.
Hello, if you can find sew on metal snaps for your quilt roof, the sewing is simple loop stitches. If you need more tie downs for your quilt shelter bias tape in cotton or light nylon webbing. Amazon or fabric stores 😊
Now that you already did it, the best thing you can do is IF the pipe is hollow, find a stick that will fit into pipe, with other end fitting into where the pipe would have gone. Putting stick into pipe it will give stick extra strength and less likely to break. Make sure you hook the pipe in one side and stick (that is in pipe) into the other side. As long as the stick fits in where you need it, everything should holdvup really good. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us ❤
Happy Valentines Day Andy!❤Nothing says love and coziness like eating a whole tasty roast and then cuddling up in a nice padded orange lunchbox😂Love ya❤🇨🇦Say hi to Mark for me when you see him?Lol sure he will giggle about it too😂Love Hammie🖐
Over here thinking why would anyone even bother going camping in such wind, it just wouldn’t be enjoyable but of course you do things for the video so we don’t have to (and it’s good to know for emergencies) but then the fact that you have a fever on top of all that?? I’d be fucking miserable. Kudos man 👏 Thank you for your service 🫡
Fantastic video, fantastic food fantastic cooking keep the great work up your friend Luke from the UK 🇬🇧 you cheered me up after a very nervous day and might start my new job today, thank you for the great video
I Love that you try all these different things. I feel a smile on my face because of your videos. You are human like us all and we all make mistakes and carryon. I look forward to your videos-thank you!
You are as mad as a March hare! And it's nearly March!! Looks like an orange coffin ⚰️...but hey! 😂 Love the leaves rustling and wind blowing 😊 and of course the ladybird.. Awww!
Always enjoy watching you experiment with new things under tough conditions. This one reminded me of riding freight trains in the US when I was a kid and sleeping in boxcars using moving blankets as insulation 😂- fun memories.
Hey Andy, as always loving your videos. Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Praying for a speedy recovery :) Bit of advice: use red onion for salsa. Yellow onions are sweet, really good for onion soup. If you can't get or find red onion, white will do. Trust me, it'll taste better. Also the same method you used for chopping the onion can be used for the garlic as well. Ultimately it's your videos and you do whatever you're comfortable with. Just some friendly advice from someone in the hospitality industry. :)
@@peepla7 I've been watching his videos for a long time. Also his friends will say his name sometimes. I also know other TH-camrs from Canada who know his name
Sorry you're not feeling well Andy! Thanks for being a trooper though and giving us another great video! Happy Valentine's Day and hope you feel better soon! Question: about how long did you braise the pork? Thanks again!
Genuinely my fav go to youtube channel, loved camping but struggling with ptsd and bad anxiety so can't go as much, watching this guys videos almost feels like I'm there enjoying the tranquility ❤ thanks for sharing x keep the videos coming amd always stay safe xx
So you popped on my feed today and now I am binge watching your videos. Can't stop. Love the format. Relaxed personality. No annoying music. Great images. Food made over a fire. Testing gear. Just too good...😅
When camping I buried a hole, threw in hot coals on bottom, put in my cast iron roaster that was a beef roast, potators, carrots, etc., then put in more hot coals around & on top to bake..sooo good....
Honestly, if it wasn’t for this channel I wouldn’t get any fresh air at all.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I feel this comment in my soul 😂
I watch this while sitting in front of an open window, lots of fresh air

Yep, no bears or lynx in the Chilterns .
@@evaflowervines9520 lol. And the "camping" is only for the one night. Don't even need to take your toothbrush, you will be home by 9am.
It’s not really a Brit thing, it’s bizarre to most of us too. Love it though
He’s in the woods not the Rocky Mountains

What a smashing guy, very chilled and honest. Thank you bro, all best to you
Kent you do a really good job of making it seem like the viewers are there with you. I honestly almost felt bad I couldn't help get firewood or help setup something.
Yeah...and then we could have helped with eating the nachos too, cause that's teamwork innit?
Any resemblance to Dracula's coffin is denied 😂
Awesome looking sleeping compartment.. super comfy looking and snug.❤👍

You need to go camping now. Time to enjoy nature. Listen to sound of the falling rain. Listen to sound of the wind. The peace and quiet are worth it.
If you haven't yet, check out Steve Wallis. Used to be Camping with Steve. He's awesome.
@@LaoSoftwarenot all of us are physically able to go camping unfortunately. I truly miss it.
You deserve a camping medal ! Wind , feeling poorly , a dodgy bed and orange box !
Dont forget the boiled pigs blood for breakfast.
Well... On Mars, why not
Nothing like hunkering down in a tent when it's raining being very well insulated nice, snug and warm with an awesome meal to boot the evening
My idea of heaven. Ideally with my wife and kids snuggled up, and a roaring fire.
This is the across the pond version of camping with Steve and very good too! I'm so enjoying the videos.
That's funny, that's what I thought when I first started watching him
Same here!steve and kent.@@tammileroux3329
Steve is another sweetheart.
If these two did a collab I would go mental! It would b the sweetest most wholesome thing ever!
Probably the best content on TH-cam. Nothing gets me relaxed like a good camping video!

What are you guys favourite season to camp out in? mine is Autumn
Agreed best camping content on TH-cam, but I can think of something that would get me more relaxed LOL goes very well with watching camping videos

I like waffles with peanut butter and syrup. I've never tried meat on them. I know they do have chicken and waffles now at some restaurants.
I love that whenever someone needs to split firewood, there is always a nice level stump available.
I know, right?! Questioned that myself.
I love camping and hiking in nature. The peace and quiet are worth it. I don't like city life. It's too much noise. Too much cars. Too much people.

The insulated tent/sleeping cube lol would be great for wall tent camping in extreme cold too. Or cave camping.

I finally found a guy doing stuff the way it is meant to be done. All in the name of a good time. Try something new try something fun if it doesn’t work it doesn’t work no big deal even like the way he cooks if you like everything separate then you throw everything in a pot it all taste even better if you cook it together. I’d love a man who thinks outside the box. I saw that big orange box and I thought oh my God he’s going to sleep in a coffin. But after watching the whole video I might be willing to give it a try just so I can say I did it. He’s not a purist but he’s a good human being to have around. I would go camping with him anytime. Thanks for taking the time and sharing with the rest of us that don’t get to go do it quite as often as you. Respect from an old man in the USA, you are appreciated
Handy hint dude use hockey straps ( elastic tie downs) for your tarp ,that way your tarp has some play with the wind and shouldnt need any adjustment during the night, I've been doing this for fifty odd years, hardly ever fails,
I find the sound of the wood blocks hitting one another very pleasing for some reason
Even if it's a Sasquatch banging a log against a tree?
@@simonh6371 I personally prefer that sound to normal wood knocking sounds lol.
Those bed bases are really good and very sturdy, but you need a good pump to get the pressure right, you have to put a fair bit of air in them. Great video.
Bingo
Hats off to you - again, Andy! That cuboid would be great in a wall tent or inside a van! Thanks for sharing!
Ya..great idea for privacy if you have to share a dorm or any room. I don't want anyone watching me sleep lol
I love how you just casually lug a great big Dutch oven out into the woods with you 😂
But seriously, I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing what you’re cooking up as well as all your ingenious camping setups.
Confusion is Not Good when ur in the bush, but u got it down pat.
Improvisation always comes in Handy !!
Great Adventures & Tips Andy, Thanks
Take Care

Andy, you brighten up our viewing. From the thumbnail, it looked like you were sleeping in a hot tub. As always, a pleasurable viewing 👏
Nice to see how chuffed you were with the from scratch blood sausage. Congrats another fine adventure you've got me into!
Love from north east England
Good to see you again Andy…
What a great camping idea. Makes me wanna go camping. Haven't done it for years. I used to live in the lake District where I've been camping in the woods as a child plenty of times. Getting fresh air and building a tent or shelter and collecting wood 🪵🪓. Love your channel.
If you added cornmeal instead of oats you’d have Scrapple. Form it into a block, slice and brown. An old time southern American favorite. Another great adventure with Andy!
Good idea, we’ll try making blood sausages next time using your cornmeal suggestion. Thanks.
Yummy! My Nanny used to make me scrapple for breakfast and I'd beg to have it for supper too! I haven't had any for so long. I'm in Indiana, Nanny lived in Virginia. I've never seen scrapple in any grocery here. Thanks for a tasty memory!
i find your videos sooo relaxing, the cooking, the diffrent sleeping arrangements, the views, and even your voice is calming, its just a very relaxing type of video. loved this video🏕️⛺
Dude, you always try new things to get us all Excited to get out there. Thank you for all your hard work and Great Content. Cliff from Florida ✌️
Perfect stealthy shade of luminous 👀👌
Andy is one of those great persons who knows what its all about camping an living: Take risks and HAVE FUN!!! 👍👍👍😉😉😉🥰
You're right Andy. That King Camp bed base needs to be inflated until the sides are really stiff. Also, it works best with the top that's made for it. I've seen others who have it, and they've all said the same thing, which is they've tried other mats with it, but none of them work as well as the one made for it.
Great camp though!.
Yes the bed needs 6psi
I love the nacho's in Canada we make it with mince, so a great new idea, Thanks Andy !
Glad you going for it lately! Follow your path. My son loves watching you.
Thanks for keeping your videos honest and fun! Love the new product discoveries and your opinions on them. Keeping it fun from Colorado!
Hello, if you can find sew on metal snaps for your quilt roof, the sewing is simple loop stitches. If you need more tie downs for your quilt shelter bias tape in cotton or light nylon webbing.
Amazon or fabric stores 😊
Happy Valentines Day Andy! Another interesting camp setup and it's always a joy to watch. 😊
Thanks for another informative, interesting camping video, for East Tennessee.
That shot at the beginning with the trees blowing was so eerie! Thanks for another video!
Also, those nachos look amazing.
Now that you already did it, the best thing you can do is
IF the pipe is hollow, find a stick that will fit into pipe, with other end fitting into where the pipe would have gone.
Putting stick into pipe it will give stick extra strength and less likely to break. Make sure you hook the pipe in one side and stick (that is in pipe) into the other side. As long as the stick fits in where you need it, everything should holdvup really good.
Thanks for sharing your adventures with us ❤
This would be great in a van over winter!!!
I just love this man, so simple and down to earth! ❤
Happy Valentines Day Andy!❤Nothing says love and coziness like eating a whole tasty roast and then cuddling up in a nice padded orange lunchbox😂Love ya❤🇨🇦Say hi to Mark for me when you see him?Lol sure he will giggle about it too😂Love Hammie🖐
Another amazing and relaxing day off thanks to you. Thank you for my therapy.
Andy really should be on prescription. 🤍
Possibly the most chilled man on TH-cam....great video
Over here thinking why would anyone even bother going camping in such wind, it just wouldn’t be enjoyable but of course you do things for the video so we don’t have to (and it’s good to know for emergencies) but then the fact that you have a fever on top of all that?? I’d be fucking miserable. Kudos man 👏 Thank you for your service 🫡
I TOTALLY LOVE your videos!!! Thank you (from Texas) for bringing us along on your adventures and product reviews😊
Fantastic video, fantastic food fantastic cooking keep the great work up your friend Luke from the UK 🇬🇧 you cheered me up after a very nervous day and might start my new job today, thank you for the great video
Hi Andy, I got the patches I ordered from your merch store. Thank you so much. My sons love them. They affectionately refer to you as Uncle Andy.😊❤
This is literally only the 3rd video i have watched form this channel. They all had terrible weather. But it doesn't put you off!
My brother in South Texas that salsa you made we call pico de gallo you need a little serrano or jalapeno to round it off. Great video amigo.
Another great upload with a coffee and custard creams!
Hi Andy. Watching from Indonesia as solo camper too. I love watching your video. Thanks for sharing new adventure to us and warm greeting 🥰🥰🥰🔥🔥
I Love that you try all these different things. I feel a smile on my face because of your videos. You are human like us all and we all make mistakes and carryon. I look forward to your videos-thank you!
You are as mad as a March hare! And it's nearly March!! Looks like an orange coffin ⚰️...but hey! 😂 Love the leaves rustling and wind blowing 😊 and of course the ladybird..
Awww!
Always enjoy watching you experiment with new things under tough conditions. This one reminded me of riding freight trains in the US when I was a kid and sleeping in boxcars using moving blankets as insulation 😂- fun memories.
Hey Andy, as always loving your videos. Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Praying for a speedy recovery :)
Bit of advice: use red onion for salsa. Yellow onions are sweet, really good for onion soup. If you can't get or find red onion, white will do. Trust me, it'll taste better. Also the same method you used for chopping the onion can be used for the garlic as well.
Ultimately it's your videos and you do whatever you're comfortable with. Just some friendly advice from someone in the hospitality industry. :)
Up until this comment...never knew his name was Andy, he never says his name on the video.
@@peepla7 I've been watching his videos for a long time. Also his friends will say his name sometimes. I also know other TH-camrs from Canada who know his name
Sorry you're not feeling well Andy! Thanks for being a trooper though and giving us another great video! Happy Valentine's Day and hope you feel better soon!
Question: about how long did you braise the pork? Thanks again!
Great video Andy. I wonder if the insulated 'tent' would fit in the shelter. Thanks for more relaxing content for me and the dog
Watching you prepare and enjoy your labors is worth the price of admission!! Truly most enjoyable and I thank you for sharing.
Genuinely my fav go to youtube channel, loved camping but struggling with ptsd and bad anxiety so can't go as much, watching this guys videos almost feels like I'm there enjoying the tranquility ❤ thanks for sharing x keep the videos coming amd always stay safe xx
Sorry you are not feeling well. Happy valentine's Day 💌. Great idea to try but a bit expensive. Interesting video thank you Andy.
I always watch your great videos before going to sleep. They relax me a lot. Keep up the good work
Happy Valentine's Day! Another great camp. Loved the nachos,, I might pass on the pudding. The hot chocolate always makes my day
Well the nachos look amazing but blood pudding 🤮 I really can’t, thanks though.
Hard pass on that breakfast delight......couldn't even watch
So you popped on my feed today and now I am binge watching your videos. Can't stop. Love the format. Relaxed personality. No annoying music. Great images. Food made over a fire. Testing gear. Just too good...😅
When camping I buried a hole, threw in hot coals on bottom, put in my cast iron roaster that was a beef roast, potators, carrots, etc., then put in more hot coals around & on top to bake..sooo good....
Called that a clam bake when I visited cape cod in the 50’s.
Never a dull moment with all the new bits to check out.
So glad I found you, I'm a camping gadget junkie! Love seeing what you use
Me too!!!
Yeah, me too!
Yeah me also.
