- Marek Larwood goes on the West Wittering Circular walk, taking in the famous beach, East Head, and the New Lipchis Way up to West Itchenor. I downloaded the route from an app called 'Viewranger' which I highly recommended. You can upload GPS routes to it too.
If you enjoyed this video, and want to help me make more, it would be really great if you joined the Cool Dudes Walking Club. You can join on CZcams Channel’s main page and click join to pay a monthly amount via youtube.

First Track made from some loops I bought ages ago.
Other track - Waltz of the Flowers - Tchiakovsky
Space Invaders. This happened to me very recent on a walk on the Mendips. I sat far away from two friends I've bumped in to... Then a group of five "tourists" sit next to me; talking about how the should bring deck chairs with them the next time!!
I lost that battle, finished my lunch early and walked on. Deck Heads! There's another name for them.
I was hoping we'd get to meet your brother at the end - or that you might at least play out the role of both characters.
I think some people actually like sitting close to total strangers. I find it mystifying. On the beach people were all crowded together round the corner the beach was empty.

Genuinely, that happens to me
all the time. Maybe it's because I'm blue grey pale and they look right through me, who knows.
I call them the "Hamiri"
(Having A Moment? I'll Ruin It).
Great name dude. It was worth going through the experience to get these names.
Nice one Alison. You've won. Great name!
@@cdwc Excellent! Thank you Marek 👍
Thank you for my membership letter! Loving being a member of the Cool Dudes Walking Club. Keep on walking and stay cool.
Welcome to the club Nick. Pleasure to have you on board. Stay cool.
this was excellent - I did the walk today - loved it - thanks for posting! Jo
So glad you enjoyed it. I thought it was fantastic too.
I went for a walk round a local reservoir on Sunday and was fascinated by a bird which turned out to be a redshank when I got home and found it in my bird book, it was getting really territorial and shouting at and dive bombing the ducks and geese that were sleeping on the shore, I think it might be one of my new favourites. Thanks Marek 👍
I love bird books. There's something really relaxing about them. I hate green parakeets though.
@@cdwc I commented to my girlfriend that it felt really nice to look for something in a book for a change rather than just relying on the internet. Luckily no feral parakeets up here in Derbyshire yet 🤞
Funniest guy in the world - love you Marek ! Stay cool !
Nice one cool dude. I would say I am in the top 7,500,000.
Rewatching Aug ‘24
I did a solo gig in West Wittering Royal British Legion once. They'd booked me by mistake thinking I was a 5 piece country band, but after some discussion I performed anyway and the whole place was line-dancing to Oasis and Green Day songs.
Did your name suggest you were more than one person?
Nope. But I randomly had a cowboy hat in the car so that softened the blow slightly.
How did I miss this? This is a great walk!
Ha. There are about a million walks to work through.
@@cdwc better get going then😄
Another walk so soon! Brilliant!
I feel your pain Marek, for today's competition I would like to submit "Proximity Pests" as a name for these intolerable individuals.
Cheers Cool Dude!

Very good name cool dude.
Interesting location, not seen this before..!!
I built the beach with my own hands.
Rewatching
Went to one of the Witterings once... and was underwhelmed. This was a very interesting and watchable video though!
However, it looks quite nice when you film it, so maybe I'm being a bit harsh.
I think it is quite crowded in the summer.
I’m more than happy to listen to Marek’s Witterings! As a local Caulkhead I wonder if there’ll be another Isle of Wight walk this year?!
Almost definitely.
Cool Dudes Walking Club Nice one! Enjoy
Nice one Marek
Cheers cool dude.
Finally, a walk at a location I know very well. And I am one of those people that sat on the grass! Why? The kids didn't like sand in their lunch, so we would spend the morning on the beach, lunch by the car, then they prefered to play on the grass all afternoon...
Now you put it like that I feel a bit unreasonable. No one likes sand in their ham sandwiches.
The tree man was a really cool dude.
Yes strange wasn't it. I've never seen a two trunked tree before.
Of to subscribe so I can enter future comps. Heartily recommend some of the Surrey Hills jaunts for cracking views. Your walks are helping keep s group of us sane, Marek, hugely appreciated.
Thanks Anthony. I've always wanted to do Box Hill. Will get round to it soon. Stay cool.
@@cdwc Very busy up there. Give Leith Hill a bash....
Great will look it up. Thank you.
Stay cool!
You too cool dude.
Marek, if you could go hike / walk anywhere in the world, where would you want to go? I went to the Faroe Islands a couple of years ago and it is a walker's paradise. Gorgeous scenery, almost no people at all, and never hot.
I would like to go to Canada. Also the Scottish Highlands and New Zealand are on my list. I have never thought of the Faroe Islands. I'm going to look it up now. How about you?
@@cdwc I'm biased but Canada is definitely a great place to visit! And there's so many options depending on the kind of scenery you want to see!!
Me, I'd love to go to the Falklands (I like remote islands I guess!), Southern Chile, the Scottish Highlands as well, and Norway. I was supposed to go to Norway (and England) in May... definitely will go once this is all over, and not just because my plane ticket is non-refundable.
Is Norway for the Northern Lights?
@@cdwc The Northern Lights would be an excellent bonus, but it's really for the cool climate and stunning scenery that I really want to go. What part(s) of Canada are you interested in?
Any bits with bigs trees and rivers but no so many bears.
People who sit too close are like face huggers from Aliens so I would like to name them Riplies. Cos saying face huggers while they are in close ear shot will get you caught calling them face huggers.
Great walk Marek, do you still have Mr Schnitzel?
Mr. Schnitzer! Sadly there were two versions of Mr. Schnitzer. A stunt version which got kicked about and a good version. After the first series I asked the producer if I could keep one of them and he said they had to go into storage for the next series. There was no second series so I never saw Mr. Schnitzer again.
Schnitzer fact - he was designed from a drawing I did. The art department did an excellent job.
@@cdwc That's a shame, I love We Are Klang, it makes me howl with laughter, thanks for the reply!
Name for people who sit too close: bubble poppers. They burst both literal private space bubbles and metaphorical mind peace bubbles. Member number 110 i think but my card is downstairs and that is too far away!
Great name and great membership number memory. People will soon realise their membership numbers are just as important as their date of birth.
Putting West Wittering on my list of walks to do , looks interesting walk. It's hard walking in such hot weather though . What water bottle do you use or do you a camel pack ? I struggled with 3 full water bottles last week a literally carried nothing else .
I just use cheap water bottles I picked up. My pack was really heavy with two one litre bottles plus a can of coke for emergency caffeine. In the hiking videos I watch all the cool hip people use Smartwater bottles. Hope you enjoyed your adventure. The pictures look great.
@@cdwc I also use cheap bottles. Decathlon have some very cheap ones . I have a habit of losing them , not out walking but at home and work.
I like beaches but I don't like sand. I prefer pebbly beaches.
I’m not a member, but if I was I’d call them tw@@s. Stay cool.
Stay cool dude.
People who sit so close, when there's plenty of space elsewhere, are known as Germanisers.
Or better still, 'you are being Germanised.'
v. to Germanise (Germanize - US spelling)
n. Germanisation, Germaniser etc. etc.
Sounds a bit like someone who tries to seduce Germans.
I’ve just sent my membership fee, 😊 I think that particular group of people should be called a clunge, due to them being utter ......... !!!!
Nice one dude. It's in the post.
Thrank you prease
You're Welcrome
Not far from my childhood home....my home village, which is no longer a village, as it has been built up quite a bit...Birdham.
A name for such a group of people: A cackle of people. / a nuisance of people / a clutter of people.....or simple: a bunch of inconsiderate (CENSORD)
I hope they didn't ruin it with all the new houses.
@@cdwc Sadly, they have :(
Oh no. Too many people everywhere.
