As I mentioned at the beginning of last month’s issue, we have a few changes for 2022, and the first obvious change is our name; we are now The Mud Life 4×4 Magazine. That little inclusion of ‘4×4’ has become neccessary, because apparently potential readers didn’t realise we are a 4×4 magazine (even with big photos of a variety of 4x4s adorning the last 33 covers!), so this will clear things up, I hope.

The Mud Life 4×4 Magazine Issue 34 January 2022

Happy New Year ‘n’ all of that, I hope that Santa emptied his sack on your living room floor this year! Ahem, moving on…
As I mentioned at the beginning of last month’s issue, we have a few changes for 2022, and the first obvious change is our name; we are now The Mud Life 4×4 Magazine.
That little inclusion of ‘4×4’ has become neccessary, because apparently potential readers didn’t realise we are a 4×4 magazine (even with big photos of a variety of 4x4s adorning the last 33 covers!), so this will clear things up, I hope.
We’ve also included a new Camping Life section that will cover everything to do with getting out and about, and having fun in the great outdoors. It’s something that I’ve wanted to do for a while, but never seem to have had the time. To be honest, I still don’t have the time, but free time and holidays are overrated, or so I’m told.
Muddy Madam has also designed some new car stickers for your delight (get a sneaky peek on page 92) – they are fun, funky and we have a limited supply, so get your order in now, and spend some of that Christmas money.
What else?
Oh yeah, I borrowed a GoPro camera before Christmas with the intention of creating some cool YouTube greenlaning videos. I’ll tell you what, it isn’t as easy as it looks. Whilst capturing cool shots is actually quite easy, it’s the talking in front of a camera malarky that’s the difficult bit. I’m a 54 year old bloke, you’d think stringing a coherent sentence together would be a doddle – apparently not! More practise is required before I start inundating the inter-web with videos of me waffling on about 4x4s and camping, but be warned, they’re coming.
I don’t usually do New Year resolutions, but for 2022 I’m going to be more organised. Not only will I get the articles to Muddy Madam on time each month so she can work her magic, and make it look great, but I want to spend less time behind the computer and more time greenlaning, camping and enjoying the great outdoors – bloody Covid, and government lockdowns allowing of course!
Hope you enjoy this bumper #34 issue of The Mud Life 4×4 Magazine!
Damian, Editor-in-Chief
The Mud Life is all about 4x4s, and enjoying the great British outdoors.
