I had some issues with some of the footage in this video and as a result it has unfortunately impacted the overall quality of the footage. If you change your quality settings to 4k it will help to improve things a bit.
I hope that you enjoy the video 🍀
Watching in 480p on my phone and it looks absolutely fine. Your gear and camera work is top notch. Don't worry if it's not perfect by your standards.
@@WexfordOnCZcams ah that's sound thanks a mill. I was worried about it because the footage was corrupted somehow in my editing software
The location is" textbook" camping spot.
A cuppa tea fixes everything Jason. Apparently so.
I felt like I was awake that entire night with you dear friend. And had a blast doing so. So glad you are back at it. Sorry - didn't mean to say back! I love your new tea kettle outfit. Not too shabby!
''A cup of tea will fix everything'' I believe a wise man said that once 😉
Fantastic to see you back camping Jason 👍😊 Also, you're so right about being selfish sometimes, you have to look after yourself physically and mentally and be a better, stronger person for those around you. I'm sure you'll get back into the gist of wild camping, you've not done it for 5 months so you're bound to be a bit rusty! Hope your back continues to improve mate 👍
Thanks a mill, I'll get back into the swing of things soon enough. My leg is still not great, I've some tendon issues there. I just want to get back doing some proper big hikes. All in good time, take her handy 🍀
Glad to see you back out camping. Cracking location.
Keep up the good content my Friend look after yourself.
Nice to c u up and about again Jason enjoyed the video as usual
Trangia is the best. Takes me back to my time as a Scout.
Good to see you getting out there mate.
Each year over summer i do very little camping (too hot here) and if i do it's car camping. First night out in the cooler months and I'm totally disorganised, sleep poorly, and feel sore for the experience. After a couole of subsequent trips, I'm back to feeling comfortable again. It's frustrating, but just the way it is, for me at least. Another way to think about it is that things feel new again, to some degree, so it's refreshing.
I suppose it's only natural, I just wasn't expecting it. After being looking forward too it for so long I had high expectations which was probably my biggest downfall. It was definitely good to be back out.
Glad your backs better, looks like an enjoyable camp
You're a good egg Jason and I hope your back is better now. Keep smiling and love to you and yours. Thank you for sharing :) x
Great to see you out again, glad you picked up the yoga, have a Trangia aswell. Enjoyed watching. ❤❤
welcome back, Jason!
Glad to see you back out Jason, camping is therapy for me and I feel great after it. Sometimes hungover but alway better for it 😂 I've also been plagued with back problems, not too bad for a while now, touch wood. Happy to see you have this back in your life and enjoying yourself. I like your videos because they're honest with no b.s. Mind yourself and keep up the good work.
😄 I couldn't face a hangover in the morning. I hope your back doesn't give you anymore grief. I'm flat out working on mine, all I want to do is go camping and be pain free. I'll always be working on it 😄
Thanks a mill and I'll do my best to keep the videos going. Take her handy 🍀
Great to see you back at it bud....
Cheers John
Good to see you looking fit and healthy,that okd yoga doing the trick,had to have a sausage sambo myself soon as i saw yours,loved it,take her handy jason
I hope you threw an egg on it 😄
Lord that was some rain Jason 🌧 😮at least you weren't washed away! 😂Great to see you back out camping 🙌
Loved the sound of all that rain🌨 just so therapeutic👍 Lovely yoga🧘♂ tent positioning. Always healthy for the body and mind to spend that time in the outdoors👍even without a good nights sleep💤😊 A lovely raging stream in the morning.
Yea it was nice sitting back and listening to it. Next time I'm hoping to be on the side of a mountain somewhere with any luck 🤞
So glad you got out man. What a cool spot. Glad you didn't get flooded during the night. Its mad the practice you need for camping isn't it. Really enjoyed that man and you came across just fine. I have my eye on the trangia cook set for some time and you have just cost me money.. For Shame.
If I was on a flood plane I would have been in bother 😄 It's a lovely little cook set. Maybe a bit overkill for my cooking skills
Always nice to get out. As the for the kids...they'll be able to go out with you in no time. My son loves coming out with me...its great to teach them about it.
Ah yeah it's fantastic. I took my daughter to the woods a while back for a cup of tea and she was a bit nervous but after being there for a while she was exploring and really loving it. It was class
Good camp, albeit a tough especially for your first time back out after a break! Just imagine how pleasant your next trip will seem. Thanks for sharing the difficulties and frustrations, we can all relate 😊
It was really tough especially with my cameras and all too. Next time will be better, thanks for joining me again 🍀
It is important to take some time for yourself as you say but not always easy. Sometimes you just have to make the time. I've been talking about going walking up in the hills for over a year or as my wife calls it, 'going out to play' and I've 'booked' the time in for next week. Thanks for taking us along with you on your session
😄 you have to book the time in, I do that too. I'd always ask what's happening next week and then figure out where I can slip away for a bit 😄
Great to see you got a fix at last (I mean the Rich Tea!) 🤩 I can imagine the rustiness being there after the long break and it’ll be the same for me when I’m able to venture out again no doubt! Great you got to take some time to enjoy another part of life that brings you pleasure again Jason 🎉😎
I was quite surprised at how rusty I was to be fair. I need a good mountain now and a nice view with a light breeze to blow the cobwebs off 😄 I hope you all is well with you 🍀
Looks peaceful! Reminds me of gortin glens up north, those Irish forests all look the same 😅
😄 wet and mossy
@@RamblingOn that's exactly what it's like. I've seen 4 different types of forest floor in an hour walk 🤣
I actually wanted to head off for a cycle camp this weekend but the storm warning put me off so I'll be off for one next Saturday just the one night and the weekend after for 420. Yerhoo.
The weather has been really bad this weekend, I think you made a wise decision. Hopefully next weekend is dry
Good man Jay. Stephen here from the Applegreen days. Enjoying the videos. Keep em up!
Ah jaysus how's it going... That's ten year ago now, feckin madness. Good to hear from you, I hope all is well 👍
@@RamblingOn Madness indeed. All is good man 👍
"A sexy egg and a mess of an egg. You get variety on this channel" 🤣🤣
Class mate.
Great to see you back "out out", just take it easy on the ol' back, aye 👍
Spending time outdoors, alone, is just as important as spending time with Family.
Good for the Soul.
Even if it is p*ssing it down 😆
Apologies for not commenting on all vids of late.. We're in process of saying goodbye to a family member - my Nan (- have I mentioned she's Irish?) She had a stoke recently, been declining since.
Your videos (and others') have been a huge help during this time.
Thank you.
Take care
All the best
D & B 👍
Please don't ever apologise for that. Look after you and yours, don't worry about anyone or anything else.
I really hope your Nan is doing okay, it' not easy but I'm sure she's a hardy woman. I work on a rehab ward and help a lot of people who are recovering from strokes and other things. Your Nan having family who love her and care for her is huge. If I'm as lucky at her age I'll be a happy man, I've seen too many people pass away with no loved ones beside them.
I'm very happy to hear that the videos have helped you, my email is ramblingonireland@gmail.com if you ever want to talk tents or the like to take your mind off things 🍀
@@RamblingOn Thank you for your reply (and offer an email to talk to) Appreciated.
She's 100 years old, Dr. and nurse(es) have been round, and (with having dementia) she's best staying at home. Hospital would just confuse her. My Aunt and Mother are Carers, so are taking turns round the clock.
Truth be told, it's not a nice decline. The Dr. didn't think she'd make Easter, but she's now bed bound and can't drink much.
She's from a Village just outside of Belfast (the name eludes me right now, - blame the Whiskey 😉 - but I'll get back when I know/remember)
She's the wisest, most strongest person I know, not just physically, but mentally.
Thank you for your reply
D & B 👍
@@DaveandBuddyOutdoors I wish her all the best, she is in good hands and I've no doubt that there is no where else she would rather be than at home 🍀 Take care
@@RamblingOn Thank you.
My Mum and Aunt are being fantastic daughters to her. Not just carers.
You're one of the channels I would have shown her (being Irish an all), and even though she'd have probably called you "mad" (for camping in rough weather) I'm sure she'd still enjoy watchin'.
Thanks again for your reply an all you do.
A (now quite drunk-)
D & (in his bed-) B 👍
Good to see you out again. Another class video. I really liked the editing of the kettle being filled in the stream. Seamless.
Thanks a mill, that's my favourite way to edit. It doesn't always work out like that though 😄
@@RamblingOn what're you doing up at after 2am? Lol.
@@man.bike.camp.4409 what were you doing up 😄 I'm working night shifts this week
@@RamblingOnI was supposed to go a cycle camp but the weather got that bad on the north coast I abandoned that idea. Ended up watching youtube videos to the wee small hours. Lol.
Great to see you back out again Jason, I hope the back is on the mend. Fantastic cinematography on this one, it didn't go unnoticed. There is nothing better than a Trangia if you're willing to carry the weight! I think the eggs would have been better if you had used the simmer ring btw. Take care pal 👍
100%, I'll be giving the simmer ring a bash the next time. They tasted alright but the pan was a mess 😄 It's a pity the footage was corrupted, I spent hours trying to sort it and got it looking fairly ok. These things happen, thanks for noticing the few shots I got 🍀
It all looks good to me, all the best 👍🏻
Well done jason.
You've inspired me to take a trip up the wicklow mountains and wild camp this summer.
A lot of rain there you had but that can also be nice. 🌧
That's really cool, I'm very happy to hear that. The rain is grand especially when you are all tucked up inside a tent
Nice wee footprint of a camp hidden away beside a stream, should send ya off asleep easy enuff. Watchout for the Irish Bigfoots! Loved wild camping but I snore LOUDLY ... Giving away my position. lolololol
Good man, great to see you out again. It was a lovely spot but the rushing water wouldv'e done my head in after a few hours. I think it's quite normal that things were a bit "off" after being away from it for a while. It will get better. The main thing is that your back was Ok afterwards. I suffer from sleeplessness while out camping. Time seems to drag while Im waiting to sleep but then I get the Camper's Inertia after a bit. This is where I know I need to get up and pee or fix my tarp etc but the temptation is just to burrow down into the sleeping bag and hope it will take care of itself. It never does but it's sometimes hard to get my arse in gear to get something done. This and sleeplessness means I mainly sleep in in the morning when camping. Not good for hiking but it's nice to finally sleep. Looking forward to your next vid! 👍
Yeah the water definitely disturbed my sleep especially when the flow got very fast during the night. I normally sleep pretty well, I know that feeling when you are all cosy and you have to head out for a whizz. Pee bottle all the way 😄 nothing wrong with a lay in, sleep is very important. Hopefully you can find some tricks to help you drift off quicker
Great to see you out again Jason well done mate 👍 I still have burnt sausage outline on my non stick Trangia pan 😂 And the lid drop to put it out before you set your arm alight 👏 Well done and get back onto Downward Dog for the next one. Have a great week 🤩👍🤗
I'm going to be flat out with the yoga before I head out again, cat cows and down dogs. All sorts of carry on. I hope all is well, take her handy 🍀
Great video Jason. Youre a pro and you know what youre doin. Looks like you had fun anyway. The weather always makes the camp a wee bit less organised. Great to see you out under canvas again. Still love your cool, calm style and great editting. Maybe you'll come north and we can do a wet camp in the mountains.
It was nice to be back out, I think I might have had too many expectations and not enough planning 😄 100% we may make that happen 👍
Flippin hell that was some rain! You must have been out the same night as Alyn @walkwatchers 😂 Good to see you back at it though and it's very understandable that you were nervous about your back, you seemed to enjoy it though 👌 Nice tent, have you a video a about it?
I loved being back out but I'm really looking forward to being back on a summit somewhere. I can't wait but me leg still isn't right. No I don't have a video on it but I might do one 🤔
Return of the camping / the camping strikes back😂 good to see you out again. How many ways can one man light an alcohol stove? New record of 3😂
I like to mix it up 😉😄
😂😂😂😂 The eggs looked wonderful 😂 take it from someone who has been there! When cooking eggs on a Trangia and other types of foods it’s best if you turn down the heat, the simmer ring is there for a purpose 😂😂 great video as always👍
😂 Your words of wisdom are greatly appreciated, I'll give that a bash the next time 😄
13:32 try & cut down on the turning. Seriously, well done & I hope it all comes flooding back, but not so literaly next time. All the best.
Thanks a mill , take her handy 🍀
Nice to see the Hex in use, have you done any mods to yours, did you use separate pegs for inner. ?
Not filtering ?? Does simple boiling get rid of all nasties ??
Your silver mug or a normal pottery mug, if choosing ??
Do you dehydrate Raspberries whole, or rip appart, what temp and how long ??
I tried satsumas other day, nice but took forever and still held some juice. Kiwi and banana my goto, but want try Raspberries as well now.
So pleased you managed to get out again after so long. Cheers
Have you still got your hexpeak?
I don't use separate pegs for the inner and the only mod is a small toggle to attached the outer to the inner tent.
If it's for tea then I don't filter too often. I'm careful not to pick up sediment and once the water reaches a boil all of the bacteria is killed off so it is safe to drink.
My little silver mug is insulated so it keeps the tea hotter for longer, plus its really tough so it can take a few knocks. I'd choose that over a pottery mug. I like the little wildo cups too, very light and they are very stable, just not insulated
I cut the raspberries in half to dehydrate them. I always just use the hottest temp and check them for moisture so I'm not sure of the time. I freeze them afterwards anyway so it's not necessary for them to be perfectly dried out. I do that to save a weight and packsize really.
Sliced strawberries are amazeballs dehydrated 👍
Yep still got mine, but life got in way, and not used yet, but hopefully this year. Even if only as a speed shelter just using outer on a walk. Thanks for Raspberries guidance. Have great week, dint know about you but its soooooo wet here still in Devon. Fed up of it now.
Nothing sexier than watching a man with his trousers rolled up, socks on, climbing into bed 😂😂😂 hope it stops raining over there at some point! Nice to see you out in the tent again. ATB. 🙂
I'll be taking my daughter with me over the summer for a trip or two. It's great for them to experience
Hi Jason, delighted for you that you are getting back out in the tent ⛺.
That looked flipping wet there. Im not sure i could camp under trees, terrified one might fall😂
Can i ask one question, you mentioned powdered milk, i cant seem to locate it, where did you source yours?
ATB
George
I use a brand called Marvel and I buy it in Tesco or I've seen it in homesavers. Here is a link to the type I use www.tesco.ie/groceries/en-IE/products/310663484
Asda also do there own brand of Powdered Skimmed Milk, it's in a blue tub, close to where they keep the Coffee-Mate... But unlike a creamer, it needs to be mixed with a little cold water if adding to a brew, as adding the power direct to hot water turns it lumpy...!😄
@@RamblingOn Thanks Jason
@@Kev.B.4311 Thanks,
Nice one Jason glad your back out 🏕️🏕️⛺️
I think you have the xboil do you like the trangia more what’s your favourite.
Cheers Graham
I really like the Xboil but I love the Trangia. I think I prefer it because it's made of brass, it's a bit more rugged and rustic. I just love it
Another really enjoyable video J.
Nice inscription on the Trangia!
I can understand why you would use ear plugs, but do they make you feel vulnerable by not being able to hear if anything/anybody is approaching?
Ah good eye 😉
I use ear plugs on every camp. It just helps to dull the sounds around me. It doesn't make me nervous because you hear so many noises when you camp that it would be easy to believe that there is someone outside the tent at any given time 😄 The only noises that I'd be worried about hearing is voices or the noise of the zipper on the tent 😮
