Biggest legend on CZcams. I’m not joking when I say it makes my day when I see Billy has put a video up!
Chatting about your videos to my better half….the inevitable, “don’t be asking me to go with you” came back. It’s just enough to get her out in the campervan with me. Awesome video as usual Billy. Every time I drive near a roundabout I’ll be wondering if you’ve pitched up inside. Keep up the great work, we all appreciate it.
I go wild camping in the Peak District and the missus thought she was missing out on something so she wanted to come along. Thought I’d break her in on a campsite, she packed a bloody suitcase that only just fit in my boot. Never again, it’s solo for me lol.
Thanks Dave appreciate you. Some roundabouts can be quite nice haha
Number One UK stealth camper , consistently good ,loving the new tent and camo
He really isn't, we just don't all post on CZcams for attention and just get on with it. But on a side note, can think of better places to spend my time than a manky roundabout, breathing in traffic fumes. Honestly this sht qualifies as entertainment these days?
@@georgebyron468 do 1
@@georgebyron468 well you watched it…! If you’ve really got nothing constructive or positive to say why don’t you pack your rucksack and spend time with yourself, then think, and wonder how you turned into such a spiteful human?
Because of these videos I now look at every roundabout I drive in a completely different way. One day I will try a roundabout camp.
A quick tip from a long time Trangia user Billy. Don't use the lid with the seal to put the flame out, the heat will melt the rubber, you'll end up with a leak and fuel all over your gear. Made that mistake before lol.
Good tip
That's why mines a bit leaky then 🤦♀️ oops 👍
Trangia is scared of tin cans but keep paying out guys and girls!
@@davidsturmer3646 I've made one from coke can had no tools as such and filled it with hand sanitiser 👍
Great video again maybe keep some secateurs in your pocket for the those pesky thorn bushes
There is an easier walk-in from Blackdam to Crabtree plantation via the underpass at 51.261806, -1.066235 although not sure how easy it is to get up to road from there. I used to play in the stream there and metal detect on the common - lots of matchlock (musket) balls there from the Civil War.
As others have said use the simmer ring to extinguish the stove flame not the lid.
Great video!
Maybe next time you could wear a mic, sometimes it is hard to hear you over the traffic noise.
Anyways, food looked good, keep it up!
Nice I’ve just got the same stove. I’ve never used one. Always used gas’s but got fed up with the noise of gas. Looks like it works well.
Loved the video. Quick tip (from my dad) when you use the lighter as a pry bar, use your thumbs center segment as the fulcrum. It's pops easily and away from you! Cheers!
Mass respect ,I’m feeling enormous energy from you in the last few camps. Like you’re ready for spring with the daffodils 😁
Get yourself a clip on wireless mic mate... its difficult to hear you... i appreciate your videos . 👍👍👍👍
That looked a painful walk up the bankside to the road Billy, but you made it as always . 😁 another great video . 👍
Nice cooking! Bet it tasted amazing, you might know bet the tranjia lid has a rubber seal, use the heat adapter lid. All the best, great videos as always.
Fantastic adventure! Always wondered what it would be like to stealth camp a motorway island.
You need some kind of thick groundsheet to stop the thorns from the brambles coming through/ and act as more insulation from the cold coming up off the ground; some bag with anyfood stuffs in it off the ground; great channel;
I love Atomic Shrimp’s channel! Cool to know you watch him as well!
My old stomping ground’s. You’re lucky to get in there unseen. Great video keep up the good work buddy.
You are definitely the roundabout king of stealth camping. Here in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, they are starting to put more roundabouts in the new suburbs and replacing old stop sign areas with roundabouts. Thanks again Billy for taking us on another adventure and keep following your nose.
I’m in Ottawa (Orleans) too. Many roundabouts in my part of town but none with enough trees to stealth camp. Take care and stay safe.
@@crazyhorsejohnny1974 It would be hard to stealth camp in the St.Joseph one. I usually stealth camp around Ottawa and Orleans myself. You should check out some of my vids.
@@TheCanadianBeaver Will do !
Nice stealthy job! Just looked like a boulder. A good smelling boulder.
I think the mushrooms are wood ear (although I'm no expert)... and wow, Basingrad. It looks like you actually travelled to get there as well.
Yes, I think that's right. Also known as Jew's Ear, Auricularia auricula-judae.
You score top marks for using Latin and not just the common name 😋
@@modestadventurers Thanks. I actually got the scientific name off Wikipedia, but don't tell anyone!
Great vid, always thought roundabouts would be a fantastic secluded place to camp.
I'm yet to do a wild camp but will definitely get there soon.
Great video I'm liking the tent very stealthy. Not liking the brambles you had to climb through that looked painful but a good camp as always. Nothing puts you off a roundabout number 10 wow. Keep up the great work.
Yay 👏 Another great camp, what I like best about your content is that you prove you literally can throw your tent up any where. I was out last Yr for 21 nights but stayed in parkland. Cost me quids.This Yr I'm defo gonna bunk out for free. Always love the cooking, good to see the tangia that's my go to, the wrap was brilliant ! don't know why I didn't try that 🤦♀️ so that's a new one for me 👍
I'm keeping my eye on the temps soon as its a bit warmer I'm off out to the bushes myself.
Thanks for keeping me inspired and motivated❤☮🫂👍
Thank for watching. Yeah it really is that easy to go offcamping lol
@@offcamping you certainly make it look easy 👍
Great video. Can’t drive by a roundabout now without looking to see how suitable it would be for a wild camp. Keep up the good work!
Yeah that's what I do mate
I was going to recommend Atomic Shrimp when you said it for the sjrooms. Wonderful vid.
Great vlog again Billy in a 'roundabout' way, lol. Really enjoy your vlogs Billy.
Thanks mate
The king of roundabouts returns! Great video buddy 👍 doubt I could car camp on a roundabout 😂. Keep them coming 🙂
thanks mate. you could try haha
@@offcamping I could I guess 😂 60mph through a barrier 👍 I'd get there lol
@@BrendanExplores well don't be doing that when I'm on the roundabout lol
@@offcamping I'll shout your name as I'm flying through the air for you to move out the way 😂👍
brilliant pal. love your videos. everything is just perfect 👌
Was excited to see this one pop up, great vid. My home town.
See you out there. 👍
Paul
Hi Billy! Without looking at any other reply, that fungus is called ‘Jews Ear’ and yes it’s edible although has little taste and is best fried in butter😂👍 Cheers from deepest Dorset
I know it's a little late to mention it but if you want something to protect your airmat from thorn's try using a yoga mat. It's lightweight, will actually add some r-value and packs up somewhat small. It doesn't cost much and you can use it for exercise.
I daily a walking staff but it really comes in handy when dealing with sticker vines as well as moving debris from my path and dealing with any wildlife I encounter like a copperhead or rattler, even a gator can be persuaded to look elsewhere for its meal.. your dinner looked tasty but I think the flame was too high. Did you use a second tortilla to wrap the crunch wrap? thats how they cover the "hole" either a smaller tortilla or a piece of a large one. A large tortilla makes a good substitute for a lid and then you can turn it into a quesadilla .. that was an interesting adventure..
enjoyed that Billy.. bloody busy wasn't it! Spring is almost on you there in U.K. still snowy here.. ATB matey ;-)
Fantastic video Billy. Hope you enjoyed your meal last night. Congratulations on getting through a night on slug Island.
Good video Billy, you asked for advice for what to do if you arrive at camp early and have a few hours to spare, well what I would do is carry a metal detecting pinpointed, never know what you could find around the camp area and would be handy for you to recover anything metal you lost in the foliage. A proper metal detector would be best but would be hard for you to pack into your rucksack. As you can see by my channel name I’m a keen metal detectors, as well as using it regulary at home I always take the detector with me when I go away in my camper - It’s just a thought, maybe not your thing! - Enjoying your videos, keep em coming, BTW the wrap looked great
That would be cool see what I can find if anything on a roundabout
Love and enjoy your channel. Watching from South Louisiana ✌️
Awesome Thank you for watching from Louisiana that cool
Billy get a ground sheet for your tent. Will help with those pesky thorns. Greetings from Maine
⛺️ legend 🇬🇧 “and we’re in”
I would of put everything inside a wrap and made a quesadilla. One folded in half if pan space is tight. Easier to get ready, make all up in advance. Whatever you didn't eat could be breakfast in the morning. Everything would be hot enough inside and cheese nice and melty. Could add quac and sour cream before or after.
Billy my man! You need to get yourself down to wales and do your thing!!
Love the vids though keep them coming
Edit: you need a simmer ring for the trangia burner to put it out. If you use the lid too much you will ruin the rubber seal.
Buy some secateurs ... useful for cutting brambles, etc and pulling them out of the way ...
Awesome job man! Reminds me of my Roundabout Urban Stealth a few months ago, almost bled to death, lol.
I use a Tyvek ground cloth and a tent footprint, dam thorns!
Who needs Taco Bell, you got them beat with that meal.
The mushrooms were jelly ear and edible. Fab vid as always 👍🏼
Thanks nick appreciate it
6:33 Looks like Wood Ear, (Auricularia auricula-judae) .. Eatable, consdidered a delicacy in some countries, has a unique texture. (Always check with local experts before eating a new mushroom).
Found your channel in the last couple of weeks love what your doing the food the camp the beer and your personality shines through class keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks mate really appreciate your kind words
Keep it up sounds to harsh sorry do it because you enjoy it what your doing is class 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Keep healthy Billy, it’s rotten damp weather, great work bud
Enjoyed watching that. Good vid and that wrap looked superb 👌👌😊
Thanks mate it's was pretty good xx
Another great stealthy camp, loved the dinner looked nice.
I couldn't camp on the roundabouts near me... They're just to small. Lol.
Thanks for watching mate
Get yourself a camping saw or machete, as long as you are using them for said purpose, you can carry them. Great vids keep them coming
🏴🚙⛺️
Just hard enough carrying what I do
Thank you Billy for coming to my home town, born and bred. Those brambles are a nighttime. That’s well noisy by the M3, that meal looked really tasty, be safe, come back soon. All the best. Xxx🚐🤟🏼✌️
You should try and camp all roundabouts in the UK. Well all the big ones. Or one in every city and town in uk.
I've missed you diving headfirst into the bushes of a roundabout
It's what you got to do. Just surprise them
@@offcamping I’ll have to remember that tip billy 😂
UK'S version of Steve " step two , hunker down " wallis Brilliant video Billy!
Looks like some good chow.
Brilliant vid👏🏼
Nice meal!!! Much healthier than your previous meals 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The mushrooms are wood ears. They are edible but not ones find particularly appealing
Nice grub.
Good location.
I so need that trangia stand for my "289 mini set" but I'm thinking about a alocs version because it's the closest I can find to make a full trangia mini, personally for entertainment on a winter camp I take my retroflag GPI/raspberry pi Gameboy until I get back into work and get a portable screen and s better power bank so I can bring one of my mini classic consoles or to play videos through my phone
Big fan of the Litefighter 1.
Hi Billy, I'd always be wary of a car or truck hurtling out of control and coming to rest on my tent. Million to one, but you are close to the freeway on this camp.
Been looking forward to this. glad it was a tent! Stay well and thanks for sharing. Watch Truesdale TV, he's your Northern Ireland equivalent. Great vid, stay well.
Thanks mate appreciate you watching. I do watch truesdale
Good to see you out mate!
The fungus is indeed edible! It’s called purple jelly ear fungus 🤙
Very much like your approach of finding a spot in the middle of all that busy-ness. Yes, waste land between the roads.
Good simple tent set-up too. Nice.
you find some great spots to camp
Billy that entrance towards the roundabout was frightening to watch. All that traffic whizzing past. Take care out there. Please don't risk your own safety to bring us content. We love your videos and appreciate what you do for us. Please take care crossing the road.
Very nice video.
I also make "stealth camping" videos and therefore ask myself:
Isn't that much too loud for sleeping in the roundabout?
It is already too much for me if a motorway is only nearby. :D
The mushrooms are called wood ears, they are edible but not straight away. They should be dried and powered then used to flavour your food.
Thanks mate good to know
I like your method man, get in there nice and quick, no messing 👌
Just run and don't look back haha
Great video and I too enjoy atomic shrimp!
such dedication....you got the forecast for tonight i hope
red wind warning in SW and wales
Brambles and no hedge clippers ..
😂 Good efforts
Awesome man, another great video!
Maybe you might take some heavy duty gloves with you next time to help with grappling any thorn branches in future?
Great video as always Billy
Much Respect and Support
What tent is that, looks awesome. Great video again 👏
Looks tasty but I’d be worried about carrying the glass. Mmmm tasty.
I can't believe you had wind during the night, must of been that salsa 😳 😂👍
Fun fact: there are so many roundabouts in Basingstoke, it used to have the nickname of _Doughnut City._
The vids are well up my street lad.. Great vid 👌
Another banger Billy ,superb again! defo UK No1 roundabout stealth camper ,keep them coming 👍 looking forward to the next 1 along with everyone else ,see u in the bushes mate 👌🏕️🔥#1
Thanks mate appreciate it
Wow another well done video. Can't help that weather. Man you eat like a king.
This is looking cool as always Billy. Keep them coming mate. Loving the content!!!
Thanks mate appreciate it
Love your videos wished I had the bottle to do that
Wood ear, jelly ears are those mushrooms mate, and yes edible, check them out first though on google mate
Hi everyone just wondering whats a decent 2 man tent to start out with? Im thinking maybe the Jackel 2 or the cloud peak 2? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thx.
I think they are the same fungi that were on Atomic Shrimp. Wood ear/Judas ear, and they are edible.
Some secateurs might be worth carrying
Top vid mate👌. Plz don't put hot food on a plastic tesco bag. Maybe try a Sainsburys one😜😲
Ok mate Ill do better next time
@@offcamping cool. I hope ur job is going well. I gotta do more camping, is so much fun
Nice one Billy ..love the roundabout videos. ..but difficult to hear you talking. 👍🏻
Sorry mate I work on it
you slept 12 hrs wow that's amazing think il start stealth camping ha
Epic vid again. That was some busy road though.
Yeah pretty busy there
Great stuff. Thumbs up.
Please be careful with the fire near that plastic tent, my wife had heart attack watching!
Looks nice
Put your airbed on top of a insulated matt
Camping in basingstoke what an amazing bloke
When the SAS employ a hobo. "& we're in". great video as always.
