See! Baby wipes I tell you! Take them out of the big packet and put them in a zip lock bag, only as many as you need. And man up you lot about wet socks - maybe I just have epic feet. I have not passed the 10 day mark out in the bush in one go but never had an issue with my laying on the wet clothes thing. They are usually near dry by the time I wake up anyway! I'm not being an idiot either and not seizing opportunity - if I've had a minute, sure, whip them off and hang them in the sun. Only wear as many layers as you need. Blah blah, I was a soldier once not always an officer!
I also still roll with the hoochie lay-out and sleep with my boots tucked under my legs. Stops your boots freezing and also you moving around/sliding, then you can find your boots in the morning without a torch either.
