#backpacking #hiking - บันเทิง
Your the most honest, genuine, funny fella I know even when your not in the right place or frame of mind, and by god you do some good for us, your followers. I hope you enjoy every adventure you come across, and plenty of them. Stay good fella
That’s kind of you mate, means a lot.
Ditto!,top man
Blimey! An influx of Mr Haze this past week. Marvelous.
One of my favourite things about hiking is the fact that I get to live in my head for a large portion of my time doing it. It's a fabulous way of exorcising some mental demons I think. I call it fly tipping my internal garbage.
You do you when you walk, brother. You're generous enough to take us with you on your adventures. You don't have to verbally entertain us; to your detriment, too. We're just happy to be there for the ride. ✊✊✌
Much love mate
Yes mate! Who needs a tv licence when you got haze outdoors!!
Always brilliant mate! 👌
Walking is a great way to mull over things in your head. I even have conversations with myself 😁👍
We’ve had some fantastic Latch&Locks™️ content recently, you can be forgiven due to that heat mate. Keep up the content Hazey, need these videos 🤙
I'm up watching you at 230 in the morning in pain with broken ribs 😣🇦🇺
I’ve broken ribs before mate. It’s no picnic so you have my sympathy. Try not to sneeze 🫡
Your honesty and openness is what makes your videos so authentic and relatable. Keep on doing you mate 👍🏻
You mean it’s the latch and locks?
@@HazeOutdoors on reflection, yes it's all about the latch and locks
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. You don't need to feel pressure to be happy every day. Love your videos.
Cheers mate! I’m happy as a dog with two dicks at the moment 😁
Sir Haze you could be reading the phone book and I would still watch. Doesn't matter if the weather was a challenge. That's the beauty of camping!!
*orders phone book
Absolutely blessed! You are on as much as Coronation Street at the moment!!! Next episode Hazey's van breaks down and Kevin Webster fixes it.....
😄
Right come on folk's don't forget to smash that thumbs up before you go,it helps his channel out plus its free
Thanks Carl!
Just what i need to cheer me up, just getting over the end of storm Hermine, garden flooded and carpets wet from leak, heavy rain and winds. Taking a break from cleaning up to watch this.
Sending love mate
Hi Haze, Yet again another amazing vlog. My god you looked knackered with that cruel Mr.Solar Face beating down on ya. I really dont know where you get the energy from but i'm so glad you find it from somewhere as we get to see these amazing vlogs. Always remember us lot inside the camera are always here for you to chat with. Always a joy and pleasure spending time with you mate. You make us laugh so much with your humour and silliness. lol. Be well and safe travels mate. x
Thanks Joanna! I appreciate that
What a wonderful hike. Hot sunny days.Just wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
Hot is an understatement 🥵
Been watching you for almost a year now without subscribing, my apologies. You’re churning out these videos atm and I love it! I will get to doing this eventually.
Wooohoo another episode of 'baked not fried '! It is awesome you are open about talking about mental health and keeping the noggin sorted 🙏
cheers for sharing dude!
You’re welcome mate
What an amazing watch loads of ace views love how you keep it real dude love the lil Robin so cool
Big up my little red breasted brother
Love how genuine and open you are. I have days where I don’t feel like talking to people and mentally close off. So I know how you feel. Your videos are good therapy for some of us in a way 👍🏻🙏
Ahhhhh your honesty! Yay! I couldn’t relate more… I know how the brain ticks over when you’re pounding the miles. I experience it as the perfect balance between pain and beauty.
Paul, some people can't be funny any of the time, never mind all the time!! great vids mate, more!
In sharing a burden, it gets lighter for each individual. There’s such a close community built around this channel, you can have confidence anything you want to share or not share is appreciated by everyone here.
Anytime I’ve seen you having a tough time of it or mentioning you’ve been under the weather, I’ve only found it relatable and felt reassured that I’m going down a good path.
This is outstanding and unique upload my friend. Simply small masterpiece!!! 🔥🔥
Too kind mate!
Hot sunny days are great, but I’m really looking forward to you up in the hills. Lashing down with rain and you cooking a Mainsgill steak and a bottle of Malbec. Oh joy 👍🏻
Smashing it hazy! Nice one brother, keep on doing your thing mate 👍🏻
🫡
Spoiling us Hazy with all these uploads!! Love it mate 😊
I’m making up for the 4 weeks I had off a bit ago when I was done in 🫠
@@HazeOutdoors As long as your healthy mate, that’s all that matters 👍
Yes Haze had a month or so off things but mate gotta say hearing your voice again was like I’ve been ill and your the pill, honestly!! .. bless you my man ins and outs x
Your in my neck of the woods at the end here. Lovely scenery - you might have noticed a high building down near the sea - Fitzleet House - nearest thing to a skyscraper we have here in sunny Bognor Regis - lol!!!
Brill mate. I can't speak for everyone but for me this is the very best TH-cam has to offer. Love it Sunday chillax with you
Hey do I see a little romance on the cards m8? Oooo ❤️❤️
Between me and my Robin? We’re taking things slow but we definitely have a connection
I find these hikes you doing so inspirational keep up the top content 👏 👌🏻
Cheers man
Entertaining waffle at its best. Looking forward to the next installment. Probably one of the most entertaining you tubers. If Heineken did wafflers.............🙏
"Focus on that spag bowl you absolute heathen" 🤣👌
Right?! 😅
@@HazeOutdoors It was well worth the effort! 🙌
I’m a local dude, you were right: you camped near that road, Houghton Forest/ Whiteways.
I have a couple of regular spots in there but you need to be careful as it’s a busy place 😬 riddled with mtb trails and family walking trails. I’ve been disturbed by poachers in that spot of beech woods you saw that person go into too, which has trails down either side of it but nice broken sight lines and wilder space in the middle. And 1/4 mile away from from your sleep spot a car park and snack kiosk/bogs where all the motorbikes like to hang out on weekends!
Never feel you have to explain yourself, kudos Brother 🙏
Looking forward to watching this tonight
Damn, this knackered me just watching. Anyroad, epic day me owd cocka 👣👍
Hey Paul! We still feel you my friend! 🙌🏻💫
Im really enjoying your walk along the south downs way, you are a great vlogger, you keep it interesting and your natural humour is brilliant 'Medic' lol. Cant wait to watch part 3. Thank you for sharing your content, it means more to people than maybe you think.
Love haze outdoors just got it on at 6am I the background for audio to get me bk to sleep lol.. 👍🔉❤️
Keep strong haze I'm feeling very lost but just no the outdoors makes me feal good and alive, keep strong brother love watching you feeling alive and happy, get a women in your life, stay of the internet its toxic, 🇬🇧❤
Really enjoyed the waffling at the start of the video.
The whole series is basically one big waffle 🧇
@@HazeOutdoors has inspired me to get out solo on a multi day so I can do some of my own waffling. Cheers!
Thankyou Mr Haze for another great video I live in the South not far from where you are walking so really enjoyed seeing you on my patch 👍
Love yer wondering on the trails 👍🙂
Just scored that same sleeping bag for dirt cheap because the buckle on the compression sack was broken. No holes rips etc. Great for moderate weather.
Great job on part 2, great hike, Thanks for taking us along 🙂
Map time FTW 😂😂
I’ll do better next time (I hope)
Cracking views, maybe not as varied as ‘oop north’ but then you get some cracking weather ‘ daaan south’ and what a sunset ☀️. Some shift that by the way lad 🥵
Very refreshing to see a back to basics adventure. Loved it 👍
Another great video mate ! Looks like an epic trail
Can't do me for it.
Russell and mat podcast 👌
Those were the days x
Map reading was perfect and yes the A29 Exactly where you were is white ways bike cafe. Me and my dad love it there also love making a F#k load of noise to 🏁. Good video mate plan on doing the S.D.W end of month / next month
Loved it
Will someone please sigh Haze up and stick him on a walking program on the box... Please also include a latch and locks 5 min addition at the end of each program too... MEDIC!!!! Love the work mate.. TY!
Another absolute belter maaate 💚
Loving these vids, thanks hazy x
Brilliant!
Cheers
Nice and authentic 👍🏻
brilliant Haze man.....Just brilliant.
That view with the sunset/moonrise was amazing. The South Downs are great in the heat, an absolute slip’n’slide in the wet with all the chalk/flint.
As always a great video brother
What a beautiful hike in the UK 🇬🇧 love it mate! Medic!!!
Nice. Got a good chuckle out of the food focus debacle. Thanks, Hazy. 🙂👍🍺
Thanks Hazy! It's always a good trip 🍺
Lovely scenery mate, look like you’re back to enjoying yourself again.
Watched it again. I think I was supposed to as you reminded me to file my thoughts away nicely. Back on track now and best of all I got to watch Map Time again. 💚
🥰🥰🥰
just brilliant
Thanks Roger
Brilliant
Thanks Adian

Enjoy Hazey!
Can’t wait for this HK! ❤
🫡❤️
Yes Haze!!!
Keep being yourself, your videos are brilliant and refreshing10/10 😊😊😊
It's great to see you down south. Looking forward to the next episode when you pass Chanctonbury Ring. It's a 10 mile walk from my house, and I go there when I want to clear my head.
Loving this. Any tips on taming robins? I have a few that I'd love to sit with. I have 3 squirrels that visit and will sit with me, and about 10 collared doves, but they fly as soon as I move 😂
Great to see the old stomping ground getting the Haze treatment. I took my wife camping in the woods near where you think you might've got to :-) It was our second date just over 30 years ago now. lots of happy memories all around that area of the South Downs
Brilliant vlog absolutely loved watching these … your a legend … MEDIC 😂
Howl goo part 2!
Another wonderful video! What a stretch of hiking! And such a gorgeous sunset and moon...looking forward to the next segment. ATB and take good care.
The moon was a delight! The next night was even better!
@@HazeOutdoors Woo hoo! Looking forward!
Pete Lumley said it all.
You’re a wonderful person, Paul. Such an inspiration & your honest, personal reflections hit notes with us that we should all take time aside in the day for our own mental health. And then you smash out a 30+ miler! Awesome.
Map Time Baby! LOL. Damn Sun! Gets you every time. ;)
Stunning night. Sometimes you just need to be in your own noggin! Was in Pentland hills today myself came across a couple of latch and locks and thought if you straight away. Keep em coming 👣
Map time was the best bit for me 🤣 .. i started here, went there..I think ? or was it there 🤔 MEDIC ! 😂🤣😂.
One of the best things about being out in wild, mate ... sorting out the head boxes ;) Nice one, as ever ;
Great video as always! Little tip for finding where you were, when you’ve forgotten. It relies on you having taken a photo (or video) on your phone. Assuming you have location enabled for your photos, each one will show the location it was taken on a map, and in the meta data. I find it often comes in handy! Once you have the pin, you can find it on your OS/Harvey map.
Glad I met the robin. Maptime was class.
Killing it with the uploads this week hazy 🤙
I’m on an upswing mate. I’m sure the wheels will come off soon enough 🤪
@@HazeOutdoors it would be no fun if the wheels stayed on all the time mate
Much love ❤️ from Wigan 👍
Cheers Wigan ❤
Wow this was a great walk, them guys are legends...late at watching this but it was worth the wait, atb Lee
Cheers Lee
absolutely love your videos and banter ❤️ good man 👌 northern lass myself 😊
12:40 in and got hit with a mini sick!!
had to get the old mouthwash out !
great video as always, keep well
cec x
Quality content from start to finish.
That’s a push but thanks mate
@@HazeOutdoors you echo the ebb and flow, the yin and yang, the ups and downs we all have in life. Can be having a great day until a memory pops in’t owd noggin about the past and tries to ruin it. What you showed in this video is attrition, plodding through, making the most of it. Was great mate.
Now it's Sunday 👌
Great to see you at my local stretch of the way. The little stone with all the Poppy's is a memorial to a German fighter pilot who came down and people from the near by hamlet came to help him. Looking forward to seeing more.
Great stuff! Thanks for that mate
