A last minute solo camp in tiny "Coffin Tent" the Rab Ridge Raider in what I thought would be dry conditions both days. I camped at Hare's Castle, a rocky outcrop in The Mourne Mountains with an amazing view of the surrounding landscape.

The hatred for the litterer earned you a sub.

What a cracker, no negative feedback here. It takes courage to camp out alone, but sharing health issues is next level, hope you work out what the trigger is. (PS: My Paramo is 15 years old and still waterproofish, it performs much better than anything else).

Really sorry to hear about your health and hope it’s improving soon. Shame about the negative feedback,some folk are just not dialled in to how their comments can be so detrimental to one’s health, regardless as to if it’s justified or not. Great video as always and what a stunning place to be out in nature.Thanks for sharing. Best wishes,Mark

Thank you for putting out a video discussing the impact of your mental health - it’s just good to discuss, I hope you feel better!

I get stress sick too. Camping makes me happy and calm. Even going for a drive in the mountains is good.

Paramo kit is so underrated. It's not the most fashionable kit to wear. Had mine since 2006, and it is still going strong.

Sorry to hear that your health is suffering! I honestly love your camping/hiking videos - I hope you manage to get to the root of the cause and bounce back we need more of your awesome content in our lives 🙌 best wishes!

I had one of these in the 90s. Advertised as low profile so doesn't easily absorb the winds. I found it impracticable for my purposes. Still a great piece of kit if you want something small and light to carry.

Rain is the perfect weather for camping.

Stephen you are among the very best on Youtube. You are the type of person who strives to always do your very best and that can be stressful. I hope you are inundated with positivity and your ill health ends soon.

I am a first time viewer of your videos...and glad to say just the one video was all i needed to subscribe...the quality, the soundtrack, the information without it being thrown at you is all second to none...you managed to make it feel like I was out there myself....definetly getting the tents and packs back out after this...p.s from the comments you have a lot of positive feedback so keep on going..

That’s wick about feeling ill so often especially after doing something you enjoy. Not something you can take a pill for either. Rest up when you can. All the best.

The trouble is your passionate about your work and aim to please . If we could care less is would be easier. Take it easy old boy, one day at a time. Live for the present. Look to far ahead and it will mess with your mind
