You put the layers on in the morning and slowly take them off as you work like a trojan. its like leaving a trail around the site. then in the afternoon as it starts getting colder and darker you back track, putting the layers back on whilst finding somewhere to hide for the last hour. :;):

Thats it! Scatter them about the site and on your way home you realise you've left your best Thinsulate top behind :(
