Two blokes, one canoe and a whole heap of bacon!
In this video, I meet up with Richard Outdoors for a riverside wild camp. After flying down during one of the windiest days we have had for a long time, I collect Richard from a small ex-world war two airfield and we head off in the canoe to find a spot to camp. Tarp shelters set up (not an easy task in 40mph gusts!) we collect firewood and get a well needed brew on.
Dinner is supplied and cooked by Richard on his ingenious Fire Trough stove - a mountain of delicious Char Siu pork belly, absolutely scrumptious! We spend the evening catching up by the glow of lamp and campfire.
The morning brings a bit less wind and a huge, bacon heavy breakfast (home cured by Richard himself) before packing up and heading back to the airfield.
It was a throughly enjoyable camp with delicious food, lots of laughs and superb company - thank you Richard!
Richard also filmed the weekend, so please head over to his channel for his version of events. He is a great chap with a wicked sense of humour - I think you will enjoy his videos (including the making of his stove and his cured bacon!)
Thanks for watching!

That pork might go well with a big pot of pork-n-nettle greens. I wouldn’t mind to cut up a slice of the fattiest piece of that beautiful bacon into a big pot of nettle greens, and if you had an onion and some salt and pepper...whew. I like the new sensible wood stove, seems like a great idea, light, folds flat, bigger surface, smart. Richard Outdoors? That breakfast was for a couple of kings, man-o-man! Thanks for sharing.
