Thats pretty much what we do mate, right down to the hexi stove, mess tins, and army bivi bag that my old man gave me from his army days. We sometimes use hammocks (not a good idea when drinking), and small 1man tents. 'Wild camping' is technically illegal in this country so we need to stay a bit hidden.I learnt to camp in the armyPoncho on floor to lay on
2nd poncho bungeed between trees for a roof
And a sleeping bag
And cook on a hexy stove

I too learnt to camp this way. I remember waking up very early one morning on exercise, to find frost on my sleeping bag.I learnt to camp in the armyPoncho on floor to lay on

Swee, the cold ones are my favourite. We camped in the middle of January a few years back with 6 inches of snow. hopefully we'll make it out this winter too.I too learnt to camp this way. I remember waking up very early one morning on exercise, to find frost on my sleeping bag.
Don't be like that smurf,you can come and spoon with me next to the camp fire any time.I normally hike to my comfortably bed as can't be dealing with all that now. /emoticons/biggrin.png
I use the fire steel (sparkmaker) quite a lot, but I don't do the fire bow or any of that. The brother in law started the fire this time with homemade firelighters made out of cotton wool and vaseline which I thought was a good idea. We sometimes find king alfred cakes which is type of fungus, and that takes a spark nicely, and we had a bit of charcloth which we made last year- amazing stuff...just put a load of linen in a tin and chuck it on a fire, after a while you are left with a brittle fabric with no moisture which is great for fire lighting. but on the whole the bushcraft element has taken a back seat to the exploring, hiking, and drinks by the fire in the evening.Are you any good at making fire without a lighter / matches??My mates call me ray mears
Would rather be him than bear grylls
Don't like eating elephant shite
Do you ever get out camping?I like the bushcraftThat's why i am happy down the allotment making stuff
