    Hats off to the most affable bush crafter in the UK! The way you got that bird to simmer in its own juices in the reflector was excellent!

    My wife and i have been binge watching you for a few months and I have to compliment you on your content and style.
    I've been enjoying the outdoors for all of my 68 years and I've learned a few tips watching you.
    Cheers and best of luck!

    I am in a different environment than you, here in western Pennsylvania in the U.S., but our forests are similar to yours, so I always learn something from you. Plus, I always enjoy your kind demeanor, your respect for the forest, and your enthusiasm for the woods. Be safe, and enjoy the forest!

    your weird camping setups with the weird/different tents brought me to the channel and i have enjoyed. Felt you had some actual skill behind the "fun" stuff and its nice to see you do indeed have bushcraft skill. Never doubted it but nice to see for someone new to the channel. Your bushcraft is great, your cooking is great, your weirdness to do something different is great, your personality is great.

      Yeah but he speaks a foreign language. This might help, Ok, new translation coming up for all the English speakers out there. Here we go. Fink = Think, Eevver = Either, Somefing = Something, Fornhill = Thornhill, Wivv = With, Fin = Thin, Slivvers = Slithers, Someink = Something, Togevver = Together, Froo = Through, Free = Three, Fing = Thing, Finkin' = Thinking, Wiff = With, Ovver = Other, Frills = Thrills, Fank you = Thank you, Anovver = Another, Somefink = Something, Levver = Leather. I did lose count to the times "Fink" was used. Just wondering, is this the way kids are taught to speak in schools In Engerland?. I fink it's time to go, Fanks and bye for now.

    I had the opportunity to pray over a young lady’s unborn baby. She had lost a baby at 24 weeks gestation, & was very afraid that she would lose this baby too. I felt the prompts from the Holy Spirit. I asked her if she’d mind if I could place my hand on her tummy. I felt the Holy Spirit fall on us, as I prayed for her & her baby girl. It was a very emotional moment. Praise Him.

It is of a high-quality felt and is properly stitched around the brim edge. Perhaps you could provide a link to the maker/seller.

    I enjoy your content, it’s entertaining and informative. It’s also so nice to hear the natural sounds and no music. Try your Apple dish with sausage or bacon!
