I'll tell you, these videos have a way to make a person forget where they are when watching because it has a way of pulling you in right with you. I enjoy them so much, thank you !

You might have to change the name of your channel to "Simon, a Gourmet Chef in the Woods" Happy Holidays to you and yours!

What a comfort this was to me today; a bit of a down day here , and that really lifted me mate . I’m yet to work camp but have camped pretty basic for many years . It’s my go to place mentally , and Xmas is a special time so this is a double dose of happy . Love your delivery and calm nature mate . Thumbs up 👍

Never mind about the pies. ... can happen. Have a good festive season and thanks for the effort in 2018. It’s been appreciated and entertaining mate

Great fun! Loved the Christmas lights :} and the sound of the rain.

Mulled wine looks good and festive, a good apertif.

It’s delicious and dangerously moorish!! I hope you had a great Christmas and a very happy new year!

Thank you very much for that, I've really enjoyed watching your videos over this past year, l find them comforting! But what was slightly extra special for me with this video, was that my 17 y. o. Son was looking over my shoulder and said, "can we make some mulled wine tonight." So that's what we'll be doing after tonight ☺️🎄☃️🍷

I wish I found entertainment in the camping department. I spend 30-50 days/year camping in remote Idaho, hunting and fishing. I would not know how to fill my day if I were just camping. Great vids, and as they so over there, 'cheers'.

Smashing video! Mum used to make mince pies, loved them. Next to impossible to find ingredients here. Brings back home Christmas time. Cheers!

Is this or is this not THE best campcraft/outdoors/survival/camping/picnic/bushcraft/cooking video or not. Absolute Class Chief. Thank You 👍👍👍

I think the Great British camp off is in order for you 2 for next Christmas. Simon, you will have to go some way to come up with something as original as mince pies in a billy can. But i'm confident Andy will come up with something to give you a good match. Then we the public will vote accordingly.

Merry Christmas Simon and Maggie :) how cool mince pies made from scratch and some mulled wine out in the fresh air best wishes :)

Thanks so much! Happy Yule, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year to you and the family. Serendipity-we went out for dinner last night to a European crepes place, and finished off with some mulled wine straight off the hob.

Nice one Simon, merry Xmas and happy New year to you and family

A bit of carbon helps the digestion so I’m told!!! A great video and a very Merry Christmas to you all ⛄️

I was 8 years old the last time I had a mince pie. That was 1980. Have not seen it since.

Brilliant "alfresco cafe" & festive hat, lol. Glad the minced pies worked out. Seems we share some similar kit - DD tarp, Alpkit Gourdon, Paramo jacket, zebra billy (with same mods, lol) (i do love my Swedish trangia stainless steel pots though), firebox, folding cup, ex-mil ground sheet. All the best to you & yours, tganks for your vids.
