In this video, I am down in Kent to meet up with Andy from Kent Survival for an off-road woodland truck camp. After a fun drive along forest tracks and fire breaks, we arrive at our spot for the night and set up our roof top tents.
An enjoyable evening of Moroccan inspired food, a couple of cheeky ales and a sudden heavy downpour of rain that put an end to our fire and it was time for bed - I opted to sleep downstairs this time - eager to try out my newly finished extending bed in the Land Rover.
Morning brings sunshine, coffee and a sumptuous breakfast fit for kings.
I hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks for watching.

@trevordavies2829 Год назад

I watched Kent Survival’s video of the same trip. Different story tellers - really an interesting comparison. I’m sure you and Andy watch both versions. I wonder how many viewers have done the same? Thanks

@philipmckeon8944 Год назад

I follow you too guys and you’re both great. Together you’re are awesome. Thank you.

@trevorkenny Год назад

Simon puts more effort into his Camping meals then a lot of people put into their everyday cooking.

I have a friend I go on outings like this with. We mostly just sit around a fire and don't talk. It's very peaceful and rejuvinating. I love ya'lls friendship. Nice.

@ChrisWoutdoors Год назад

Nice one Simon and Andy, Make sure you shut the Landy door properly....lol

@franmcintyre8823 Год назад

Hi Simon! I "met" you on Andy's channel and thought I would give your channel a try. I enjoy listening to you and Andy chit chat and look forward to more of your videos.

@willemdodgerford5782 Год назад

Yeah man, always nice to see you two together in an episode

@perplane Год назад

I love watching you guys on a joint camping trip. Now I don't have to watch two videos to see my two favorite blokes. I appreciate the content guys, thank you!!

Oh I'm so glad I found this channel.

@laurieann2714 27 дней назад

I always love watching what delicious stuff you guys cook up without the aide of a fancy kitchen! Don't need a lot of bells and whistles to make a great meal!

@trishrobbins9942 Год назад

That fire bowl is the best! I’m in the Colorado mountains where some campers leave fires unattended. 🙄 Besides resulting forest fires, we locals are being punished with sky high insurance rates. Love Love Two Blokes!

@ghostofkadesh9041 Год назад

Simon & Andy, 2 thumbs up 👍😊👍

@mark_your_adventures90 Год назад

Great to see you back in the Land Rover Simon! Always love it when you do these videos, would be great to see you do some more stays in the Land Rover more often 😃 always enjoy your videos though, look forward to the next!

@humbertocarrionjr8111 Год назад

You have a super land rover and the music you play fits the vehicle. Keep up with your camping trips. It seems to be the only way i go camping by watching your videos.

@texasford Год назад

Great video! Love it when you & Andy camp & hang out…🍺

@craiglake6091 Год назад

Great camp Simon. My 3rd great-grandfather left Preston, England in 1856 and came to the U.S. and joined a wagon train that landed his family in Arizona. He could do anything out in the wild. I think he would have enjoyed watching your videos.

@iainamurray Год назад

I think if you’d shown him the video he would’ve burned you for witchcraft

@sarahstrong7174 11 месяцев назад

My third great grandfather was a coachman, in Southern England. He died because the coach got stuck in a gateway & as he tried to free the horses they panicked & reared & killed him.

@mikebruce6234 Год назад

great video, as usual, thanks Simon & Andy.

@LoneWolfExplorer 11 месяцев назад

What a great video chaps, really enjoyed watching that. Perfect location for it 👍

@lscblackwell9202 Год назад

Missed this last week! I know I am late to the party but I didn't want to not comment. Always enjoy your posts Simon. But when you and Andy go adventuring, it's always so entertaining. Such sumptuous cooking! I don't know if I would tackle those dishes in my modern and well appointed kitchen, much less over a wood fire or camp stove. And I love the bed conversion in the Land Rover. The way everything just fit together and made such a comfy looking bed. It all looked so well done! You are a man of many talents, Simon! Take care and be safe out there. Looking forward to your next adventure! 👍👍☺☺🧡🧡

Here in Tennessee we would be covered in ticks if we camped in cover like that! Y’all are lucky!

@jmfarouche6688 5 месяцев назад

I m here in Missouri and just got in from working in the garden, found a tick crawling up my leg… oops I lied here’s another behind my knee….damn the little bastards, they come out of nowhere and hide in seldom checked damp spots…moral of that story is strip and check every crack and crevice possible- if you have a friend or companion - get them to look you over with a fine tooth comb 😂

@holzjj1573 Год назад

Your videos soothe the soul. I love how everything has its place. So organised. Thankyou for another enjoyable video Simon x

@diannebradley9153 Год назад

Cheeky bottle turn on Andy's table, love it. The bed you've just finished looked super-comfortable with a grey-Maggie pillow. Meals looked delicious. Beautifully filmed, Simon. God bless.

@joncarter8372 Год назад

“I think the rain is stopping” … …so much for airing and drying out the tent. Hopefully you’ve had time and appropriate weather to do so. Love your videos, Simon. Hoping your ratatouille gets at least one thumb up.

Simon...."at least the rain is stopping" Mother Nature...."hold my beer"

@vic2265 Год назад

Buy some big reusable dessicant bags and place them in a small open top container while packed away which is what I have done to help alleviate the mold and musty smell from my rooftop tent. Another product I use is damp rid but you have to be sure you have room for the little container to not spill as they collect moisture and trap it in the bottom. I also set my tent up and sprayed it with a canvas mold and mildew treatment and let dry really well. The tents are fantastic but do have the drawbacks you stated when not in a dry arid place. Keep the land rover camps coming!

@simonablokeinthewoods Год назад

Thank you - a friend of mine has offered me some big bags of desiccant that I’ll try - might even install some vents (weatherproof ones) 👍

@zbigniewkrajewski7536 Год назад

You two make a great pair to enjoy overlanding with!! Thanks for the entertaining experience once again Simon

@jimlydle4170 Год назад

Hi lads this trip looks fun. It reminds me of my life on the farm as a kid driving a land rover not sure which one but it was late 60's. Ive always wanted my own. And Spam haven't had that for years. I also like the subtitles on all youtube videos not just yours , they seem to misinterpret some words. But it's good to see another good vid of good mates enjoying good food in a great location.

@neilbland1701 Год назад

Fabulous camp Simon, my favourite collaboration with Andy from Kent Survival too, you two always do a great camp together and plenty of laughs and facts along the way, always awesome viewing. Thank you very much and hope to see more in the future please.

@tamirew9247 Год назад

Out of all the content that I watch on a daily basis, your vids always come first. It’s like yes! Simon dropped a new one! I particularly love the intro and outro music that you choose. A mixture of Americana, folk, blues. Good ole guitar/banjo pickin’. Always fun!

@TamaraVelasquez-je3bh 10 месяцев назад

I really enjoy your videos, especially with you and Andy! You two are rock stars! Thanks for the adventures and sharing your camping skills. God Bless. Tamara U.S.A.

@AllyMcFancysp1xn 2 месяца назад

I'm so happy I discovered your channel, and Andy's as well. I live in the U.S, in Oregon specifically. I'm about to turn 77, and I've been wild camping since my 20s. That said, even old dogs can learn new tricks, and I've learned a few from you that will make my trips easier. I intend to continue wild camping (always solo, I might add) until I can no longer walk upright & carry a backpack. Nice job with your videos, and be safe out there!

@DonP_is_lostagain Год назад

Loved Andy's video, and loved this one too. It's always nice to get two perspectives on the same camp. The Spitfire was a real bonus!

@loki1066 4 месяца назад

At 24:34 Andy visibly winces as he realises how romantic this is all starting to sound 🤣🤣🤣

Hello, I came across your videos a few weeks ago and I'm really enjoying them. I'm inspired by them, how amazing packing up and going on adventures. Thank you for the entertainment, the places you visit look so lovely.

@graememorrison333 Год назад

Top tip for using any stovetop coffeepot is to take it off the boil before it starts bubbling @27:18. You'll end up with noticeably less bitter drink.

@JazzFunkNobby1964 5 месяцев назад

Sugar sorts that out.

@scruffysod Год назад

Comfort sheets a couple in zip- lock bags left in your roof tent. Don't just throw them in without a plastic bag they stain. Change every six weeks.
