what a lovely place despite the mist , but added to the experience no doubt , that camera is amazing , just watched alex’s version running through the mud
accidentally sent - as i was saying i watched alex’s version and great to see you all enjoying yourselves, never even knew that place existed so thanks for the video , some really good shots 👍😀
Well that looked an adventurous walk! I’d have been on my bottom slip sliding around 😂 Slaw liked your 360 footage. We’re finding it’s like Marmite. Some subscribers love it; some hate it. Happy New Year love from Mrs Slaw and Slaw 🥳
Sorry for the delay in answering J Allin, but I'm not sure why we've stuck with Herman. I think it’s because he's almost perfect and we don't need anything else. Large bathroom, easy to drive, fits in a parking space, well built. The only thing we'd like is a rear lounge but then he'll probably be too big.
Hi just we are in Ashbourne at the moment. Watching you vlog and noticed your holding some kind of stick whilst what looks like drone footage. What is your setup. Love your Vlogs keep doing what your doing. So good.👍👍🤞
@@HermanHitstheRoad will do thanks for prompt response it just looks invisible from you hand. Will check out now. Although caravanned since 1992. We have just bought our new motorhome last year. We are looking to retire this year and do something similar to what you guys are doing so well but full time. Keep up the good work we love watching you VLOGS.
Wow, never seen that. Looks hard going! Brings to mind Puzzle Wood in the Forest of Dean (which is a bit easier to get around) and has been used in TV and film quite a bit ( Dr Who, Harry Potter, Star Wars,etc) if you wanted to strike some poses in the actual place.
@@HermanHitstheRoad lots of places of interest in the Forest of Dean and Welsh borders, I think it’s a bit overlooked sometimes. You might even spot a wild boar. Yes, enjoyed the video 😀
Hi thanks for all your vlogs!! Just a question....have you ever thought about upgrading Herman?? Only asking as we are debating our van...older 2007 and higher mileage at 71000. However I am really attached to Syndney the swift and am only frustrated by the small washroom and the drivers seating position.
I think if you can put up with those niggles then maybe you should keep Sydney? But if they really bother you then get another (which will probably have other niggles). Now isn't really the time to buy but it is the time to sell. Have you seen another you like?
@@HermanHitstheRoad So keeping the 360 camera parallel to the pole will make the pole almost invisible. Got it! We have a 1993 Hymer S700 that needs fixing...I can't wait to take it on the road. Love watching you guys!
@@HermanHitstheRoad We bought the Hymer knowing that it needs some work. I wanted a gasoline engine that runs on LPG as well. I didn't want a diesel with all the pollution restrictions and I liked the 700S model, so I had to buy a fixer-upper...It looks like I have very low compression on cylinder 4, it might be from carbon built up on the exhaust valve. I'll either rebuild the engine or I'll do an engine swap. Anyway, I'm planning to fully remodel it, install solar panels, and make all the changes it needs. I have everything I need to do that, including a spare engine. I hope I'll find the time to do it this summer. We live overseas in Mexico and we go back to Europe every year for most of the summer. Sorry for my late reply. Cheers! Chris
There’s no way I would have got through there! I would have been stuck until I lost weight! 😳 You must have read my mind because I also watched your Cotswolds trips yesterday and I thought, I don’t recall you using that 360 camera in your recent videos! 🤣🤣
Fantastic place to visit, walk and views across the roaches are fabulous too. Had some wonderful adventures there.
Yeah, we didn't realise how close we were to the Roaches. Another great place👍👍
Thats amazing 👏 we live in an awsome country
Don't we Cara the Van? Amazing 👍👍
Wow, that's cool. Looks a bit like the compactor scene in Star Wars, a New Hope!
Oh, yes. I see where you are coming from with that, Sleepy Cat 👍👍
Well done that was so tint to get through, there is no chance I would have even attempted that. It did look a lovely place though. Take care Gill
Haha well holding the camera didn't help either, Gill 😂
Interesting using the 360 camera gives a different perspective.
I intend to use it a bit more, Xhogun 👍👍

Thanks Mike and we're glad you enjoyed the video 👍👍👍.
Will you be able to make HermanFest this year in June?
@@HermanHitstheRoad if its my weekend off and i can swap with someone if its not , then yes , 3rd time lucky ! we’d love to be there
Gorge - ous video 👍
Very good 👍 👏 😆
Nice place. I expect it’s a lot better going there in summer.
I don't know, Paul. The mist did give it an eerie feeling which you wouldn't get in the summer. Well worth a visit whatever the weather

Do you use a 360 camera as well, Slaw? Viewers seem to like the 360 in this video but not when goes all cosmic, if you know what I mean?
Hi guys great video would be nice to see a few more how to or repair work as you are very good explaing how you sort it
Thanks John. We have a maintenance video coming up in a few weeks so watch out for that 👍👍
Sorry it posted before i finished!!! So unsure about next steps for us and just wanted to ask....what makes you stick with good old Herman???

Thanks Tony, glsd you like it. It's an Insta 360 camera on a 3 metre pole. Check out the video description for details and links.

Would love to visit, but I don't think I would fit LOL
Haha. You don't have to go the route I took. I just did that for fun 👍👍
Lovely video
Thanks Tanks on Tour. Glad you can come to HermanFest too 👍👍
@@HermanHitstheRoad did you get our confirmation email?
We haven't received an email but I can see that you've filled out our registration form 👍👍
@@HermanHitstheRoad tidy. Thanks.
Wow, never seen that. Looks hard going!
Brings to mind Puzzle Wood in the Forest of Dean (which is a bit easier to get around) and has been used in TV and film quite a bit ( Dr Who, Harry Potter, Star Wars,etc) if you wanted to strike some poses in the actual place.
We'll check out puzzle wood for the future, Philip. Thanks. Hope you enjoyed the video👍👍

Thanks Philip
Puzzle woods is a 5 minute drive from me, must get round to visiting it at some point.
We'll have to look it up. Thanks Xhogun
Great 360 footage 👏 How long is the pole you're using with this camera?
The poles max length is 3 metres. It's the Insta 360 pole.

Hi thanks for your replies. We haven't seen one individual van that we like but have just been looking at the layouts we like. Still undecided 😀🙄
How come we cannot see the camera pole? It almost looks that you had a drone following you.
360 camera algorithms and magic, Chris 🤣😉👍

What's wrong with your moho, Chris? When do you hope to get it working again?

A S700? Very cool. It sounds like a great project. Good luck 👍👍
Over here the LPG stations are slowly closing.

I don't always use the 360 camera but after this video I might use it more. However, it takes more editing.
