- Ebay bargains for wild camping!
I've been accused of spending too much on camping gear: fair enough
So I thought I'd address those accusations by spending a bit more.
Armed with £100 and an ebay account I challenged myself to buy all the essential gear I needed
(tent/rucksack/sleeping bag/sleeping mat) and still have enough change for a cheap bottle of wine.
All this and then go camping in winter: how did it work out?
Well, not too bad........

Enjoyed that. The jokes are becoming a highlight 😄👍
Haha, they are pretty terrible, but I’m glad you like them, ATB, Graham 👍
The stew looked 😊. Half a loaf of bread n butter and i wouldn't of needed any pudding 😊👍🏼👏🙏
Thank you, the stew was just the thing with such a miserable weather conditions. TFW, Graham, ATB 👍
Going to sleep soundly tonight 😂😂
Me too. In a bed with a mattress! 😂
Best one these I've seen as you got decent entry level gear as to wish toys shows can be a cheap hobby to start another say 50 get stove headtorch bits and pieces sorted but we all no you can spend a 1000 on a rucksack even more 😂great vid and hope gets some people off the sofa and out in fresh air buddy
Thank you, it was just a little experiment to show that you can get out there without spending too much even in winter. Appreciate the comment, ATB, Graham 👍
Amazing video
Love the views
Thank you, appreciate it 👍
Hi Graham another corker !! Just goes to show no need to spend fortunes at all. Pity it was a dank night but you already know the beauty of where you are 👍👍. Really enjoyed that mate ATB Simon.
Thank you, it was an awful night weather wise but as you know, there’s a certain joy just in being out. Cheers, Graham 👍👍
Thank you for the inspiration
My pleasure 👍
Saved to watch later 👍
Cheers, hope you enjoy it!
I use the oex bob cat 4 years in all weather never let me down
I use a poncho for my waterproof and i have modified it to stop it from blowing up in the wind
My boots I use are from Aldi for 20 pound never let water in
Sleeping bag army surplus one for 30
Backpack I got was oex 65 of vinted 8 pound
Nice one, I’m as guilty as the rest when it comes to spending too much but it just goes to show that you really don’t need to spend much, ATB, Graham 👍
Well it was definitely a wet night out and a good test for your budget kit that brownie looked good atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Thanks Jimmy, the brownie was spot on. Bliddy awful weather though 😂😂
@@grahamswildcamping 🤣🤣🤣🤣 going to be the same at weekend I'm out for two nights of rain
@LundysWildcampBushcraft enjoy, take a big tarp!
Great vid dude love it.
Thanks man, appreciate that 👍
Foggy camps are cool..I christened my Bobcat at that fisherman's lodge.
Can't be beaten for price and quality.
I’m liking the tent, to the extent it’s making me wonder why other manufacturers are charging so much!
'Wet Boots and a Damp Mountain Smock'... I think I sang that with a friend's folk band at the Fringe 🤔😆 Nice video, Graham. I love an eBay bargain! 👍👍
I love it really that’s why I do what I do 😉
Nice hike and video Graham. Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you, ATB, Graham 👍👍
Great trip out. Tough conditions at times. Just subscribed. Best wishes on the next adventure.
Thanks for the sub, that’s always appreciated, ATB, Graham 👍
Educational G, beware of hot drinks 😩
Loved you’d coordinated with your tent, they say that happens when you’ve been with the love of your life a long time 😂
Hahaha, perhaps that’s it 😂
Hi Graham, nice little camp in a nice little spot, makes you wonder when it rains all night,but at least you went out, I choose not to at the weekend due to cold wet snow !!!!
Not hard enough !!!
Cheers Adrian
thanks Adrian, to be honest, I’m not sure I’d go out again with such a bad forecast 😂
Nice one Graham, the tent did well not to “ wet out “ the rain was bliddy awful !! Stew looked great 👍
The stew was one of the highlights!
had my oex bob cat for 4 years never let me down in all weather
You sure you're not that actor from Outlander?
Haha, pretty sure, no one with a face like mine ever acted 😂 Thanks for watching, ATB, Graham 👍👍
@@grahamswildcamping lookup a guy called Mark Lewis Jones. He's your double and in Outlander.
Weird coincidence, he was in a new series I was watching when I read this ! Got the same eyes 👍👍@@BonkersAboutAlice
How did you find the tent
So far I reckon it’s absolutely cracking especially that you can find it new for as little as £59.
I liked the groundsheet that covered the vestibule and the large roll back door. Maybe not the best or very tall folk but great for me 👍
