I like the way you talk to the audience. It's like you know each and everyone of us. It feels like we're sitting down with at the camp. My hats off to you.
Hey Robert, thanks buddy :) it almost feels like i have you guys there with me to talk to haha
The very worst part of camping is having to break camp and go home , nothing makes you recharge better than being in the woods , makes want to live there
Kent: I loved the comment"Yes I have some ketchup, get over it" I laughed so frigging hard. Thanks for the chuckle. I enjoyed it immensely.
Countryside New York USA.
Me, the wife and kids line up on the sofa when Andy posts a new vid. Best channel on YT. He's funny without knowing it. "Yes it's Ketchup, get over it". 🤣
Thank you guys :) thats great to hear
thats Great little Dan :)

Bluebell's remind me of my late mum. When I was a child many years ago I used to go to the bluebell wood with my mum all the time, before she passed away. She was only 25 and I was 5. I remember it very clearly. Bluebell's are my favourite flowers 🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻
so sad lol ... sorry to hear tis RIP to ur mum
What a precious memory. Blubells are my favorite flowers also. Bless you. ❤️🇬🇧❤️
This man has done so much to showcase the fun of camping, moreso than any advertising could possibly achieve.
I don't commit on every video of yours that I have watched but am extremely interested how well you talk about your day. More importantly how you talk through setting up your tents.
I suffer from anxiety and deep depression, watching your videos really helps immediately with my mental health.
Thanks for making your videos and posting them, means a lot to me a long I hope you continue to make then.
You come across as an easy yet understandable kind of gent and that really shows in your videos in such a great positive way.
I will look forward to watching more future videos.
Take Care ! And happy camping days.
I suffer from bipolar depression and i also watch these camping videos. I went winter camping and slept in a kota hut with no heating in my sleeping bag and i was happiest ive been in long time. I went with a friend and we had pasta meals and roasted sausages on a stick on campfire and had cowboy Coffee and oatmeal as breakfast and peasoup as lunch.
I am not a camper let alone capable of bushcraft but I love your video's. So peaceful and your voice is very soothing!
KL stands for: Koninklijke Landmacht ( which freely translates in Army of the kingdom ) The number is probably the buildyear yes, but not entirely sure. Greetings from a dutchman 😁
cool, thank you for the information :) or should i say asterbluf... pretty sure thats terrible spelling haha
🤣🤣🤣🤣it is terrible yes, but the funny thing is: I understood what you meant😁
Mine are also a KL-94, seems most of them are labeled like that.
You can connect multiple of them together.
It's pretty much nicknamed puptent
Ajax pal
Well if you translate it literarily it's Royal Landforce. Just as we translate Koninklijke Luchtmacht to Royal Airforce (KLu) or RNLAF (Royal Netherlands Air Force) as it's known abroad.
Buddy you have the best bushcraft show out there. Very peaceful and an extremely friendly dude…..
That's a pretty nice tent for a soldier! When I was enlisted in the US Army, we carried a "shelter - half." If you wanted a full tent, you would have to find a battle buddy and put your two halves together for a full tent. Other than that, our Squads and Platoons lugged around GP (general purpose) Small/Medium/Large tents. They typically took several people to set them up and they could get pretty heavy.
When I left the US Army, I guess they started issuing one-man Combat Shelters.
Your woods sound so peaceful with all the birds 🐦 🐦⬛ tweeting
I just love your personality and how you take us on an adventure and have a good meal with you as you camp. Thank you so much😊
U can cook good loving it! Getting very hungry while watching this! Nothing beats outdoor cooking and eating! 😀 loves from The Netherlands!
Love the leather work on those lanterns!!!! Every video
Andy, love your beautiful scenery shots. Can imagine how beautifully you capture shots in your photography. Been watching your videos for the last month. Love them all.
These videos are so well made and enjoyable. Not too many healthy things in life that I can count on to help me relax and destress on a rainy Saturday afternoon 👍🏻🙏🏻
Had to sub for the “Yes, ketchup. Get over it.” Your calm manner and ready smile are the perfect antidote to a stressful day!
Ketchup is perfect on Steak & Taters! 😎👍
KL means Koninklijke Landmacht (Royal Infantry) and the 94 is indeed the date. Wonderful little pup tent!
Yet no Dutch beer this time? You sure like to keep us on edge don't you.
What a beautiful woodland!
I watch so many videos of people camping in the woods. And it never stops amusing me that they show clips of them walking out into the woods away from the camera, knowing full well they have to walk ALL the way back to get the camera again 😂 and visa versa they show them walking towards the camera from out of the woods.
If the "zombie apocalypse" ever happens, Kent is the one I would want in charge... of feeding my men. With his food everyday, moral would be so ridiculously high, we would win the war against the dead in a matter of days. Lol. Facts
But you have to remember he forgets something every time, maybe not the best leader 😂🤣😂🤣
@@dennismills6887 Well, I did say in charge... of feeding my men. Head chef
@@papabear9481 he would forget the salt 😂🤣😂🤣
@@dennismills6887 Lol 😅

Great Videos. You seem to be a very kind and good hearted oerson. Its nice to see good people enjoying themselves. Cheers from Boston, MA.
The flowers are so lovely!
Didn't expect anything other than great from you Andy.. love the wild ingredients.. Thanks for another peaceful watch..
Thank you Gail :) gotta use them while theyre here haha
You gotta have Ketchup with your “chips-or-potatoes”, all those that oppose…”Get Over It”! Awesome episode Sir Andy ✊🏼🧐😎🤙🏼👊🏼
I've been binge watching your videos the last days, it'sjust what I needed ❤. You make such relaxing videos, and I enjoy all the nature sounds. You make me smell the fire... and the bacon... I feel almost like I'm there with you.
Thank you so much 😊
I see the blue bells are out behind you,a sign of a classic english woodland, brilliant video andy cheers mate.
I remember bk in the 80's we went camping in a big orange tent which took my mum & dad hours to put up.bk then the tents were seriously basic & we'd regularly wake up in pools of water,due to condensation.how times have changed,but when your a kid things like that simply didn't bother us.'happy days'.
Yeah we had a big old orange tent...they were so summery looking.
Beautiful British wildflowers! Want to paint them!Thank you so much for sharing the video….going to be a beautiful summer!
Ha ha, it's 6am here in Perth, Western Australia, having my morning coffee, listening to the birds. I usually have creamy porridge for breakfast, but now I am craving a fat juicy steak with crispy potatoes and wild greens instead. Thanks a lot. You are camping in a beautiful spot, enjoy.
😆😅😂🤣😂🤣
What a beautiful spot for pitching a tent and enjoying the outdoors.
Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope you’re having a good day?God bless you❤️
@@amytaylor5454 Thank you. Best wishes to you as well
@@jamesmiddleton6464 you’re welcome. Thank you. Where are you from!?
As kids, my brother and I used to use this kind of tent but another older model, my father brought with him back when he was in the dutch army.
Horrible smell but we liked it. Always had to hear the same story how he camped in it in -17.
Another Solo Masterpiece, thanks Andy the wild garlic was a nice touch with the potato cubes, i love the way you clean-up, just like you were never there.
I love that little hop he does when he takes off his back pack 🤭🥰
Andy,
Maybe a good sub-topic for one of your videos, would be to test de-odorizing products for folks who have older tents/ equipment.
There are two common products here in the US for deodorizing fabrics. One of them is Lysol. I’m sure you have it in the UK or an equivalent.
My Eureka Timberline, 4 person tent has served me very well since 2004. Over time, I’ve punched a few careless holes, and have fixed a few seam leaks over the past twenty years.
However: She has started to smell as if an old man has been sleeping in her for a few decades.
That’s when I decided to carry a spray can of Lysol (lemon scent) as part of my kit.
It kills mold and mildew on the interior surfaces of the tent and it isn’t too expensive.
Also, every year that I use my tent, I spray the outer surface with a silicone based water repellent spray.
This tent and vestibule is as good as the day I bought it those many years ago!
That was my tent when I was in the Dutch Army 2001 - 2011 . They got introduced somewhere in the 90s not the 80s. If you have 2 you can zip them up together as a buddy unit.
oh wow, i didnt realise they were used that late, cheers for the information :) (noone wants to zip up with my snoring ;) haha
We still had the old tents in 94, so that is probably when they were introduced, around that time at least.
Your camps are so calming. I love the nature sounds..thank you for your efforts. I am 70 now and don't get down to the woods much anymore.
Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope you’re having a good day?God bless you❤️
Same here. Age and serious health problems ended my camping. But I can enjoy it vicariously by watching YT campers like this. 😊
You and Outdoor Boys are two of my three favorite channels. The fat electrician is the third. My hat's off to all of you. This American loves your channel!!
So lovely to see you in the spring time 😊🏕🌳🌿🌻
Aww nothing like a video from you to wind down to, after a long day at work. Thank you! 🏕
i am SO GLAD to see you repair the ground after burning a campfire there. unfortunately a lot of people don't seem to care. :/ i swear i could smell the bacon in the pan, all the way from Canada... ;) keep up the good work! :D
Awesome video Andy, great tent from back in the day when they used canvas. Steak and cubed potatoes with tomato sauce....my favourite....
Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope you’re having a good day?God bless you❤️
I remember the Huge old tents for family site camping back i. 70s...they even had a little room or two in them..used to go camping a lot bCk 70s with my then fiancé..the little gas burner,we cooked some amazing breakfasts on that,it would set up for the day.
We were down brighton one week camping on the side of a incline ,and there was a thunderstorm,and we could feel the rain running under the ground sheet.lol..they were the days..great fun.
It’s lovely spot there andy..the flowers are beautiful..it’s still nippy tho for this time of year.
You couldn't be in a better place you lucky man,the sound of the birds the bluebells,pure bliss.
What a beautiful woodland Andy, Thank you for taking us along. Love this time of year. Not too cold and not sweating to death yet either.
Hope your truck gets fixed up good for you. Can hardly wait for your next video, will be lovely to see what you've got going.
Thank you for sharing young man. Be safe and Take Care.👍👍👍👍👍
Glad to hear you're doing good, did miss having a video last week, but looking forward to seeing the new project. Always loved those old military tents but they are so heavy. Great food again as always, that steak looked perfect
Cheers Chris :) working my ass off to get enough done for part 1 of the build haha
Glad you used the wild garlic leaves. You can also eat the flowers and these are great to snack on as you are walking past as they taste like strong spring onion
Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope you’re having a good day?God bless you❤️
Yes, you can smell them when you walk past a patch of wild garlic.
Omg i was waiting for sooo loongg!! For a Notification!! As soon as i got one,i ran upstairs to watch it 🤣🤣 awesome video Andy!! And as always make me hungry 😁😁🤟
You cook some mean food Andy!! I love it, keep it going. I think the Dutch army tents are excellent, had mine a couple of years now.
Cheers Bill. good to hear :) everyone who has one seems to love it which is promising
Who would have known it's so peaceful, and relaxing watching a big lad play army in the woods hahaha great video as always Andy keep em coming...
I do love watching you cook!
Beautiful scenery! As a person who camps the yrar around, i very much enjoy your camp videos. I learn newthings every time!!❤
I know this video is 2 years old but I just had to tell you I had a chuckle when you were describing your meal and said ketsup "get over it". After all your hard work It's your meal eat it any way you like lol. Lots of hugs and love from SC usa
Cheers Andy for awesome spring video enjoyed watching and listening to the sound of the birds thanks Andy take care 👍👏
Superb video. Lovely setting and some great shots of nature!
imagine watching stuff like that just out of pure boredom then suddenly you are left in an airplane crash and it actually comes in handy
The KL stands for "Koninklijke Landmacht" and 94 is most likely the year of production. I absolutely love your videos. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
We had much simpler olive drab colored tents back in the 80's. Each soldier would carry a half of it (basically a tarp, there were no zippers or anything) and when it was time to pitch you put two halves together and share it with your buddy.. These are roughly from the second half of the 90's or later. Now on with the video :)
In my high school daze in the early 1970s, I was in the Civil Air Patrol (one step removed from the Boy Scouts 😅) and went on a camp out. We used those old musty GI Surplus shelter halves. No ground cloth, so lucky it didn't rain! But we teens had a lot of fun. 😊
Ahhh love your videos Andy! That tent looks small, but good for 1 person. I love when you process the wood! Camp site looks comfy! 💯💯💯
Thank you :) yeah, its cosy but good head room :)
I watch your videos at night when I'm in bed , find them so relaxing
Thank you for the vid Andy you're truly inspirational ❤️
Thank you for the video and the company.
Lovely, thanks Andy!
Ex-millarty gear is really good as being an Ex-millarty soldier reservist for a number of years and sleeping are good
It's just incredible what beauty, what atmosphere you were able to create. This is truly a meditative experience watching you. I myself started making videos about my adventures, so I'm interested in everything. Grretings from Belarus tourist.
Calming and beautiful video Andy, and I could smell the woodsmoke.....
I love watching and listening to you!! Thank you for being you!!
Leave no trace,massive respect,cant wait for the next video.
Hi Andy this video is exactly what I needed it has been since the beginning of February that I have been out on a camp I do have a planed outing the first part of June by then I will be totally crazy. I love the small tent I have an A frame that is similar size the front opening flap makes to a awning. Ther froest is surely coming to life there I am looking forward to the surprise shelter. Take care
always happy to help Clara :D .. roll on june! haha
Glad to see the ketchup making a welcome return 😂
That area is stunning in the Spring. Thanks for sharing, take care.
All of your videos are so enjoyable, Andy! Much appreciated, my friend.
🌿I'm excited about your new build. Thanks for these bits of peace in stressful times 🏵
Watching this video was like going back in time , thank you.
Hi from the US, Andy. So enjoy your videos. Love all the blooms around your campsite. Nice roomy-looking tent. Looking forward to your newest project. Thanks for sharing.
Love the look of this tent.
Great too see you back Andy 🌸
The flowers in that woods are beautiful.
Is this the stream where you used to collect the wild garlic for your cooking...My God, seasonal changes in the woods are so distinct I am still so surprised, it may not be too much of a surprise for everyone, but my mind is blown being a girl who has never set foot in the woods/forest not because I chose to but because of health reasons I'm prevented from experiencing all of these...watching these videos made me feel as if I'm experiencing all the things that I can't in real life...
Been waiting for days since your last upload and now I'm happy 😊 Thank you Andy for your hard work and sharing. 👍🏻 the bird chorus is incredible this time of year Dawn and dusk.
Beautiful place to camp. Great vid Andy as always 🙂
Beautiful lush green forest :). Loved the background sounds of the birds as well . Another great vid !
A relaxing interesting video as always. Food looked lush. Intrigued as to next video - excited too! Woodland looks simply beautiful. Thank you for sharing 🥰
Another great video Andy thank you. Looking forward to seeing your project. ATB
Top video Andy. Ticked all the right boxes as usual. Tents, wood prep, axe work, old hurricane lamps (of course) lots of proper food. Whats not to like. Living the dream mate.
Great vid mate, always enjoy your time, thx
