Spring is Coming | Local Hiking, MINDFULNESS & Exploring | Thrudark Melee Jacket
In this video, Tom and I enjoy a local hike, enjoying the sights and sounds of the outdoors. I am in the final stages of testing the 'Melee' jacket by Thrudark and will be sharing my honest thoughts in an upcoming video. It was great to see the sights and sounds of spring knocking on the door and the first day we have felt the warmth of the sun properly on a hike!
I share my views on the dreaded 'mid-roll ads' which RU-vid appear to be pushing massively now - whilst it's a free world and many people rely on income from ad revenue, my own view is that this is becoming at the expense of the viewer experience and more and more short videos are becoming saturated with ad breaks which for me, spoil things - each to their own, however I will never be placing mid-roll ads in my videos and should they ever appear, please let me know as I haven't selected them to do so.
The Soto Windmaster stove did the business here as always and this is a solid and dependable bit of kit. Let's teach our younger generation all about the outdoors, how to love and respect it and ultimately, reconnect with nature which we seem to have lost touch with a little now.
Thank you for watching - Chris & Tom

Glad the Lark still sings his sweet silver song for you. The wide angle does the West Lancs sky justice. I remember it as wind, mud, hares, lapwing and pheasants. Used to get the Ribble or Crossville bus from Town.

Great to see you out with Tom it’s very rare these days most just want to play on computer games. Your right about mobile phones we take them everywhere we’re always connected to the world sad. Just recently I have stopped taking mine out with me I guess that’s a start to using it less. Great video and the drone footage and music was so professional. Thank you 👍👍

Nice to hear your thoughts on the advertising there Chris - it can ruin the flow of someone's hard work when the ad's are just forced in. Am glad you don't bother with the mid roll ad's as it makes for far more enjoyable viewing. Whilst spring may be in the air we should never forget the old saying '"Ne'er cast a clout until May is out" as i've been caught out once or twice on the bike thinking it was a lovely day!!

Lancashire is a great place to live with sone great walks on our doorstep. Atb matey and nice jacket indeed.

Great to see you both out on a walk guys. Some very interesting subjects touched too Chris. I admit I tried mid rolls one but quickly went back to the normal format of having skippable ads at the beginning because it does spoil that connection with viewer to host I think. Anyway, lovely to see the signs of Spring on the way and nice to see the new mic and drone in action. Cheers guys.

Cheers for watching - very much each to their own, but I cannot stand mid roll ads, they ruin the vibe and flow of a video for me - some of the channels I watch eg Erik Normark never disrupt the experience and the end product is better. I get some people need ad revenue, which is fine - but for me, irrespective of this, they ruin the content.

Nice relaxing video, always enjoy the drone footage too. I agree on the disconnect, not only from nature but from other people. We have unlimited ways to connect to others now, but people are lonelier than ever. A screen can never replace a face. We need that physical connection to people and nature, or we wither.

Chris. I'm a new subscriber, although I've watched many of your posts over the past several months. Your comment about the children with their phones, tablets etc is spot on, however listening to your lad, that's when the internet becomes educational....he can photograph stuff then go home and look up reference material and get a fuller understanding and knowledge on the subject. More power to your boots 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🥾🥾

Cheers for watching and being a subscriber! Swings and roundabouts re the phones thing - I'm awful for it. I do think there is a disconnect (for many) re nature and the outdoors and I think smart phones predominantly are responsible for driving this shift. There are some top apps though, especially the ones which can ID plants / trees etc through the camera!

I totally agree with you about the phones, yes they’re great in many ways but definitely the negative out ways the positive ☹️ I have a German Shepard so I have to go out every day and I love it. I live in West Cork, Ireland and it’s a breathtaking place to be, no matter where I walk I have hills on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other and it really surprises me that I don’t meet many people out on my walks, very few avail of this beautiful place and stop to look at the vistas. Another great video Chris, I really enjoyed it ☺️

On the subject of RU-vid videos, can you control them or is it just upto RU-vid? I'm not monetised, and don't want to be, but while watching my videos on other people's devices adverts pop up before my videos. Nice to see you out with your lad, kids need to get outdoors more. Since my son moved back to his mum's, all he wants to do is play video games, I used to get him out walking/scrambling and camping. People's obsession with technology does my head in.
@MCMOutdoors
@MCMOutdoors 6 месяцев назад
Cheers pal - yes, you can decide to put mid-rolls on or not and then, you have the option to place them, or delete them - otherwise RU-vid picks places automatically where it thinks 'is best' to put them - it's obviously beneficial to YT to place as many as possible so they rake in the £££ - but it's now ruining content on some channels and it's literally unbearable.

I'm not keen on the mid ads although it's not as bad if it's directly for the content creator, so they get all the money. They can be skipped too. My biggest dislike is hearing people eat. It goes through me, I'd sooner have ads. I'm about 20 minutes closer to Pendle than you. I've noticed last week that the birds are singing much more in the morning. I've also seen snow drops and crocus around. Wild camping on Win Hill on Friday, I heard my first Skylark of the year. It might be 39 days from spring officially but nature thinks it is starting. Nice to see your son out with you, I hope he's wrong about the 40⁰c this summer. 🥵
