Nice one mate

[@paulsmithprimitivebushcraft]

Thanks buddy 😊

[@wildmanbushcraft]

great video mate.. couple of questions dude. 1 - what would be your bedding in winter and 2 - what clothing would you wear in winter. im really interested in learning and camping more primitive but scared of getting awful sleep and not enjoying it because im freezing cold all night lol. do you ever use long fires ect

[@paulsmithprimitivebushcraft]

Ah thanks my man, my sleep system never changes I use my great kilt which is essentially a big wool blanket all year round clothes I wear my shorts and a merino wool top most of the year too, if not that then I have more substantial layers like a Woolrich jumper which is really good and fallraven trousers. Fires and the correct mindset are the key to being cold when it comes to going primitve often times I'll sleep curled up right next to the fire on a reindeer skin and that's usually good enough for what Scotland can throw at you 🙂 I've done a video on what to wear a while back it might be of some interest, if there's anything else you want to know just let me know 😁🤜🏻 And thanks for taking the time to watch my man I appreciate it!

[@wildmanbushcraft]

@@paulsmithprimitivebushcraft no worries. love the videos so far mate. im going to have to get a merino wool blanket. ive got a queen size yorkshire wool blanket but ive got a funny feeling merino will be wamer. typical scotsman wearing shorts all year round haha. thanks for the advice pal really apreciate it

[@paulsmithprimitivebushcraft]

Thanks Rachel! I was drinking spruce tip tea, and with my fish and bannock I had wood sorrel, hedge mustard, and some nettles! 🙂
