Video Transcription

Yordano hello there people of the internet it's been a while I've been busy putting Sweden videos open haven't actually been doing which recording and but yet we're back it mr. South does suit us after lerczak live shit yeah actually meant to be doing an overnight tonight with him Zed Zed outdoors obviously everybody knows that man that normal no vid and Ramez we doing overnight with him and James winter oh I didn't overnight - we've Bucky in February and both plans fell through basically and they're just me me and Bill Oh revenue representing and so yeah I promise said a preset I'd be more than a 10-minute video what we'll see how that goes because everybody knows I'm not a fan of long videos but we'll see what happens

mmm well yeah just the one night tonight you go as me and Billa hitting the town tomorrow

whoa tree that's come down that's not let's investigate down in it nice I could could I hate the show through Phil I think he's probably a pretty probably long enough hopefully it's because it's rest illness yeah it is well Barry we slept in the worst comic was the one that was willing to tell the story Ken what the other dad my friend like hurricane is described on the news and these huge ash trees as good this must have come down yeah definitely that's a strike spit one okay cleaner odds come off it's obviously shit and then spin around will do dr lightning well no it was thunder but the wind was mental switch muscle boy got this bomb for prepared for me what's going on help our blend james is it and we're doing a little bit of nettle cordage so a thought we do show you for a change actually do some bushcraft we always do we just isn't that ironic

yeah so yeah hey if you want some quite a cloth or pair of gloves to tackle the buses tend to get the leaves off by going down the stem because opposite to the way they're facing up can they break easier

and kind of give it a good rub up and down just to break all the spines off and then all you used to just kind of bash the stem to make it a bit portly but bill actually splits these down the center so I'm gonna give that a crack seems to work a bit better stop herself in the knee you just go your hand after you

turn the blade the other way up and then once it gets past grab it that's what we're trying to do is get the separate the inner piece from the outer fibers

it's the out of its the strong part get these off too many fibers it's them this is the easy bit really it's the kind of it's the it's the it's the binding them together which is a bit of a complicated bit who actually got my call my bracelet I could hold held together with them this isn't metal is it this is in raffia bark oh yeah that's really good cordage but it's not like something not to be found here

what was that often a that was a pom pom see palm or cork cord loins Sofia Abboud incentive isn't that what the hell is that I was just packing my neck that's a a shield book yeah I'm a caller right now I've got this open and you still break it with several points what are you just gonna go for it no I just break it one bit it's on right so I'd normally break it all the way along so basically we're gonna do now is break it so the piece is coming up at you and then base the world outdoors you can then kind of ease the piss out of the way of the yoga fibers sometimes it works well it started yeah sometimes you don't get a dodgy one and it just kind of peels off all over the place and sometimes you get a strong one where they just kind of stay together so you want to break off bit by bit because if you try and do it all in one strand you're basically like and lose all the fibers together also start to peel away be a bit by bit it works much better so Karen do you need some time ago wanna move a couple more I'll show you how to bond them together okay so to bind the nettles into cordage go get yourself a decent piece don't know that your folks this is gonna be you guys want to find the middle the middle part which is about there and you want to just start to twist twist in opposite directions until you get to the point where it starts to fold upon itself it's not a point each one I kind of see which wants to fold I just can't do every wall no want to fall by itself so then let that happen and you're going to want to pinch that then so I've got the fault there see so that's kind of that's near the end of my model line and then brazii took what I'm going to do is find which way they're turning which is away from me and I'm gonna turn both of them and it's kind of a knack to get it you're just gonna have to give it a go and see which is most comfortable it's for you some people roll it on the leg I tend to just roll each individually roll that one hold it there roll this one until he wants to fold on yourself and then kind of let the turn happen so you just punish rules together and let that happen now just hold the pinch it they join again with my left hand roll the top one hold the demo two fingers well the bottom one said it wants to twist together

and help them both and then let the twist then help him along its way a little bit it's really hard to get it in focus

it's basically you make cord I'm just keep doing that and when you get quite good at it you can actually get a decent length of the cord built up pretty quickly then eventually when you run out of line which I'm about to do in Amit when you run out of cordage or material to work with you're basically just adding another another stem or another strand I can do all kinds of things nettles pretty good the raffia block is quite good bumble seems to be pretty good you've used long box or loving your bill I need a long bob that seems wrong seems pretty good nails are good because there's just so many of them they're just abundantly you know and you're not harming anything boy boy taking them they're just a weed very much so there we go get some cordage and then if you wanted to double that off you just do the same again and then repeat this process with two or two of these two of these are all of this noise I've tried doing the technique where you roll it on your legging I just darling work for all you need to get so now you need to get some decent friction don't you want to make actually roll right so I'm basically I'm running out now so all I've got a little bit left that can be left now so I'm gonna go anywhere what I've got a little bit left to work with I'm gonna bring in another strand brush I'm gonna do here this is a little bit thick so he's pop this down a little bit probably get this down to two pieces separate this up there you go now about two pieces

you won't want a bitter stem here there piss my trunk every day as much of the little bits of Pythia count because they're gonna hold bitch the maker may cause a problem especially what I'm gonna do now is I'm going to get this piece this new fresh piece and bind it in twist it together with the with the end of the old piece that you replacing are you trying to extend piss off so I'm just going to type these both pieces and just twist them together and then it's time to twist by itself and gone get that pinch-twist that in and twist this bottom piece and then they will come together and then there you go you just bonded another he's probably know the first piece in this bomb piece needs a piece of the mint so I'll get this piece here until we stitched together you come out extended both pieces and I get to the end of this line and do it again simple as that it's actually quite relaxing and therapeutic or doing it are you such a bear he's taught him a lot months ago see you her active excitable we're gonna fire going with limited materials I've got a bit of Swedish Birchbox yeah I'm really looking here show a couple of minutes Oh Oh somebody's back steel if we need more oh we got time I want to get that alcohol I heard that one of those bottles I wonder about a boy a fresh husband buttons that was hot okay yeah they are pretty cool I'm having getting the fog in the other day so bad we didn't have any materials like soaked took about half an hour for it's pretty much because I was just been lazy and I did my usual thin stuff right so we're about thirty tea with some food of some kind and he's brought along my origin so now we've got a list of some start to it so and snowy's let you need more trees that's gonna be like a taster course oh it's not you know you put too much in is it an appetizer yeah

this is how we cook nettles in a pan so you want to get them really Brown and all bit crispy like seaweed and then or about them as my California starts the sparking number anything or anything down okay
