      Try getting your Steel Toe Cap Work-Boots at a Size Larger than your actual Foot Size Dan, be Comfortable at Work too Mate.
      Many people make the Mistake of getting their Work Boots at the exact Same Size as their Regular Footwear, like Trainers or Shoes?
      Big Mistake.

    Hi Dan, I used to have one of those gas lights. I used to light it by turning the gas on and holding the match under the burner. As the gas is heavier than air it ignites so you don't need to take the top off each time. I've now subscribed to the vegan outdoorsman. Nearly at his first thousand. Great video again.

    There's a newer version of that bivvy with a hoop at the foot end as well plus the door is double skinned with a full mesh inner one for star gazing if the weather suits. It's called the Geertop Plume II. I was out in mine last night.

    I enjoy your videos as you are open and honest about things, you forget something almost all of the time (like everyone else), you seem so happy just to be out camping. You keep talking and waffling on, it's part of the appeal, who can honestly say that they don't waffle on or forget the names of things? You have gained yourself another subscriber, keep the videos coming.

  • @jenny8344
    @jenny8344 Před 2 lety +5

    There’s no need to remove the top of the lamp to light it. Just poke the lighted match through the gap between the top and the glass. Worked for me every time. Unfortunately they are not good in windy conditions .

    Nice video Dan 👍👍. Yeah here in B.C 🇨🇦, we have to take precautions on camping . Big knives, firearms, bear spray, as we have alot of wild life. That will take you out. Blk Bears 800lb + , cougars, Coyotes, Wolf's. The werst are raccoons, sneaky little Buggers 🙁. Will take every advantage on you, & they are NOT afraid of you. I always take my dog with me, he can sense approaching danger. So it's a symbiosis collaboration, he has my back & I have his. I watched every moment 👍👌 Dan , as I grow up in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, then moved to Canada 🇨🇦 28 years ago. I miss the English country side 😢

    Hej man nice video, I enjoyed it. First one I’ve seen from your channel. Just a quick tip, might work or it might not it depends. But usually my experience with MRE’s is that the flameless heater works better if you fill it slightly above the dotted line and use warmer water if possible.
    Also let the chemical pad soak up as much water as possible. You can kind of tilt the bag so the ”chem pad” can do it’s job. Let me know if it works better when/if you try it!

I prefer when I watch videos like this because it's like we get to know the person and relate more think of it like retail you might loose a customer but how many customers will you gain because they can relate to your service your doing something right because your following is growing well chin up your doing a great job 👍👌🙌
