What useful old time skills do you have?

[Melonfish]

i can:
build shelters, start fires, prolly skin things (theory studied) i can forage quite well for all sorts of plants and fungi. i can trap small animals.
skills wise i can lay hedges (keep those cattle in) build drystone walls, make charcoal (metalworkers will need me) and assorted other green wood crafts too.
i can also keep knives and axes sharp which when you think about it is a vital skill for anybody caught in a TEOTWAWKI situation.
