In a parallel universe an otter just did the Marek walk and Sunglasses Otter is actually quite a nice otter.

Two footpaths were in the pub having a quiet pint together and chatting. A wiry thin strip of tarmac walks in and marches up to the bar, pushing past and spilling the pint of the larger of the two footpaths. The footpath springs to his feet. "Oi, watch out, look where you're going!" he says, annoyed. The thin tarmac strip just ignores him and orders a drink. "Scuse me, mate" insists the footpath, getting angry now. "Just leave it," whispers the footpath's friend. "He's an absolute cycle path."

This is the best ever walking joke. You deserve one million pounds for this cool dude.

@user-qz3wv7tq6v Месяц назад

After watching this, it brings to mind that I once had a chicken Tarka. It's like a chicken tika, but otter. Once again, my friend, delightful wanderings. Thank you.

@milesmcquillen1885 Месяц назад

I'd like to give you 2 thumbs for that joke. But I can't. I'm stealing it anyway.

Nice one! I’ve done that walk, also on a bit of a grey day. Can be a bit sameish with the tarmac path. Instow and Appledore are beautiful though. Recommend the ferry trip and the coast walk from Appledore to Westward Ho! Is superb!

@cookster1001 Месяц назад

I’ve just done the first leg of the South West Coast Path with some friends and covered off this walk on Saturday. Started from Braunton and stayed at Appledore in the fabulous Royal George. We all thought the Barnstaple stretch up towards Instow was a boring old slog too. No gradient whatsoever and the tarmac was not our friend. A much better walk around there is from Woolacombe to Braunton the day before on our trip. Loads of wildlife. Bunnies, birds and butterflies galore. Stay cool,dude!

@patchso 2 дня назад

Woolacombe to Braunton is superb. As is the rest all the way to Minehead!

Yes definitely a cycle path! Lovely area, we go every year ♥️ nickname ermmmm Hubcap. I'm stuck to wheels like a hubcap.. Peggy's nickname retro Rambler, she's an 80s girl that likes to walk

@feetunes Месяц назад

Cycle paths masquerading as footpaths! It's enough to make a cool dude apoplectic But here in Kintyre we got our own back by building a wet and windy A road with log lorries hurtling by, masquerading as a Cycle path. My nickname would be Oi You.

@SouthCoastDetecting Месяц назад

My nickname at school was Sinbad after a girl said I looked like Sinbad from Brookside, I later changed it to Sinny and used it as a DJ name in the late 90s

@cdwc Месяц назад

@WalkerWanderung Месяц назад

A cool look would be your hat attached to you somehow by a piece of string as they did with mittens when we were kids.

@all-range-mode Месяц назад

And the backpack cover

@WalkerWanderung Месяц назад

New video! Let's go!

@neilmeadowcroft7569 Месяц назад

Tarmac, bag cover drop and lost hat, seems like a bad walk all round. Well done anyway Absolute cool dude number one, best one, excellent cool dude.

@cdwc Месяц назад

Excellent. Someone finally using my correct name.

@johnheath-fi5po Месяц назад

Well cool dude that walk looked like too much tarmac as you stated. My wifes is called madwoman, vet app and given tio her by her brother. I was once callec Mr Slaphead as like you im follicly challenged. Keep walking and eating the laces.

@sueweston502 Месяц назад

Only just worked out how to use the emojis Also I take your point about tarmac tax however there are a couple of cycle paths round our way that I use because it's better than walking along a busy road with no pavement - anyway no video of yours could ever be boring

@cdwc Месяц назад

Ha. Thank you. I suppose the upside is that you can walk the in winter, especially with all the rain we've been having. I might need to do an umbrella emoji!

@francesdarcy6785 Месяц назад

Thank goodness it wasn't the tilly hat!

@judybee Месяц назад

Late watching as I've been in your favourite abode for a few days getting very much 'Otter than I should. Wow was it hot over there this time. Musn't complain. Actually visited your local Village stores & bought some home grown produce there🍓🥔🥬. Like stepping back in time with the phone box (that actually works) & tiny stores that remind me of my youth. Too hot to walk some of the old railway paths on IOW this time so just flopped out at Freshwater Bay & discovered leftover IOW festival hippies ☮who were naked on the beach😲 despite it being packed with old grannies & rather interested young fellas. Some tutting was heard & heavy breathing (but that might just have been the heat!). Great video once again Marek Love North Devon. Sorry you lost your cap x J x

@JeffOnWire Месяц назад

Nickname, maybe crick, which is a sound I make frequently while walking these days. Love the videos that start on a train or ferry-kind of a nice transition into the walk.

@ellisgribble5729 Месяц назад

Also…have you ever had a chicken tarka? What’s it like you say? It’s like a tika just a little ‘otter :) bit of bideford humour for you there!

@MattG-vs2rt Месяц назад

piano is coming along great!

@RPMarland Месяц назад

We say that about our Osprey backpack covers all the time! We use clothes pegs.

Cool Walk, I will have to have a trip to North Devon sometime

@cdwc Месяц назад

Worth a trip cool dude.

@DaveandBuddyOutdoors Месяц назад

Going there and finding out it's a cycle path, I'd be livid! Ah, sorry to hear about you losing your hat, I found a North Face beanie a few months ago, you can have that, if you're ever up Cheshire way. Thanks for sharing Absolute Cool Dude No. 1 Best One Excellent Cool Dude 👍 Take care All the best D & B 👍

@alanmaynard7842 Месяц назад

We were there last year. Don't know if you did any more videos as there is lots to see. Did you go to L&B Railway as there are quite a few nice walks around there, plus of course a ride on the train. Great video.

@cdwc Месяц назад

A couple more videos coming cool dude.

@kevinwright5129 Месяц назад

Hi Marek great video. Theres a youtube contributor called ghost train lost railways of britain showing the route from Barnstable to Bideford that you walked showing the original railway line and stations as they were originally. Just thought you might be curious. Hope you get a new hat soon cool dude 🙂

@paulamoreton6522 Месяц назад

Sew 2 pieces of elastic to your rucksack cover to pass the hip belt through. Osprey have these on their large pack covers.

@cdwc Месяц назад

Good advice cool dude.

@infidelcastro5129 Месяц назад

Nice video, cool dude. Remember to let me know if you plan to do any walks in the Cotswolds. My spare room is free 😊

@cdwc Месяц назад

Thanks cool dude

@Skunkola Месяц назад

Aww man that was a good cap too. I like Flexfit ones and would deffo wear a Cool Dudes Walking Club one; brown? Oh, got the prize stuff btw, ty. The Pig keyring is SO NUDE!!!

@cdwc Месяц назад

I bought two exact replacements when I got back.

@roystonvasey5471 Месяц назад

I would have thought Osprey would have a zippy up bit at the bottom to accommodate the cover as Berghaus tend to do.

@cdwc Месяц назад

Yes it is a bit sh*t for about £15

didn't Tarka the Otter bite off Terry Nutkins' finger?

@KevinCullen Месяц назад

OMG Tarka The Otter... It shaped my childhood brain in the way The Children of The Stones spoke to you, I think you would enjoy it oh he who I have mentally nicknamed Cool Dude Prime... Now, I haven't watched Tarka The Otter since I was a child so it could have been some hideous mess or evil or something, I am almost scared to revisit it in case it turned out to be bad but I remember it as something beautiful but I suspect it may have some tinge of Watership Down to it but my crumbling memory could be muddling it amongst our childhood horror show of beautifully laced tales of trauma . Speaking of Osprey covers, mine is physically attached to the bag (on both Osprey bags I have, 55L and a 75L) via a convenient elasticated thingy that is in turn also attached to the bottom pocket of each respective bag which also conveniently stores the covers, mayhaps they did listen at some point, we may never know, Cool Dude Prime. Much love, Wango III guy.

@isolationstation5157 Месяц назад

Hi Marek sorry you had a disappointing slightly cursed walk. I watched it while cleaning sticky brown slime out of the bottom of my fridge, I think the slime used to be carrots and new potatoes and it was utterly disgusting! Hope that cheers you up

@Niac022 Месяц назад

Just in case you were curious the entire Tarka the otter movie is on RU-vid to watch.

@cdwc Месяц назад

I found a beanie on a train 15 years ago and I still use it now. Hopefully the same thing happens to your hat.

I guarantee the next MUST HAVE ITEM from Paris Fashion week is the self holding umbrella

@cdwc Месяц назад

@antygod Месяц назад

Watched the film when I was a kid, never again. It makes you fall in love with a cute otter, then it gets ripped to shreds by a pack of dogs at the end. It still traumatises me. and yes, living in Exeter I can confirm the green, white and block flag is the flag of Devon.

@Vurtonable Месяц назад

It’s lucky we live so far apart as I’d feel obligated to be constantly sewing your possessions to you with long bits of elastic so you didn’t lose them. Call me paranoid but I think your hatred of pigeons has lead you to removed my number from the generate number. Also my crap camera is so crap that it only takes blury photos. It’s ridiculously crappy. How am I expected to create art with it. Pheggffggrrrr These are the important issues I have this week.
