Aw, thank you. This made me smile. 🙂

I 100% agree I watch them at night over and over again to fall asleep to! Its comforting for sure!

Thanks Nicola, I was worried that with the weather and adverse filming conditions, I wouldn't be able to make a video that did justice to how much fun the day was. It was indeed a supurb day, and I'm looking forward to your next visit 🙂

OMG!! what on earth are you doing here? The world's most softly spoken , enigmatic mud larker, with the world's most softly spoken gorgeous mud larker. all our dreams come true! (oh, and you are just as enigmatic too Nicola). bugger, tell me if i'm digging a hole, eek, now, reading it back? Well, love you both, you are my human versions of antidepressants :-)

@@Drobium77 thank you. I shall take it as a big compliment x

@@Drobium77 Its just like a fairytale!

nicola white mudlark - Tideline Art Loved your cornucopia type pipe. Really unique and very interesting

I'm working on it. Slowly... but I aim to have started something of a story reading channel by March ish. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 that's FANTASTIC!!

Thank you, I'm glad to be considered a favorite alongside such a wonderful creative film maker as Nicola is. 🙂

You're very welcome to come up sometime and I'd be happy to show you and your family around the site. Of course, there is a very productive opened dump site much nearer to you too that Si-Finds frequents that might be easier for you... which I'm a bit envious of 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 We would love to come we should really sort something out haha. We need to be in the Si-finds inner circle to go to that awesome dump, unfortunately!! :)

@@tomburleigh9261 Actually I should add you would be more than welcome to come visit this way. We have the Thames and our special beach that you might like :)

@@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers Perhaps when you're on your way up, or back from seeing the Northern Mudlarks!? I'm a bit out of the way, but, if you're in a car it's feasable to make the diversion without having to stay in the area overnight... even on the train it's just about possible, if the daylight hours are long enough then. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 We are hopefully planning a Mothers day special with the Northern Mudlarks (for obvious reasons) we just have to work out logistics with school timings for Oscar etc but it would be good to combine both visits. It would be great to meet you and have a wonderful mooch around your glorious dump (that sounds a bit odd haha) :)

Thank you, I'm glad you think so 🙂

Lol just had to say I agree ! I'd build a cottage near by and go out every day lol if I could !

It's certainly a place that's given up a lot of interesting stuff to me. It's filled up one shed, good thing I have another. 🙂

Thanks Arlene; she does fancy coming back sometime this year 🙂

Thanks Malinda, I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂

Thanks Gail and Alex, it was a great day out; as was my brief time with you in Berwick. Probably the best day for finds at that site I've ever had, so it might not be quite as good if/when you visit, but hopefully it'll still have lots to find. 🙂

Thank you and welcome, I hope you get a great deal of enjoyment from my future and past videos. 🙂

Thank you Raima Mohommed, I hope you have a beautiful day too 🙂

Thank you, quite a lot of my audience is people with stress, anxiety, or insomnia issues... I'm glad you enjoy it, and I hope you get a lot of calmness and enjoyment from my past and future videos 🙂

I will, thank you

That sounds like a fantastic site, and a wonderful collection (I hope whoever ended up with the house, ended up with the bottles too and appreciated them. It's pretty good fun dump digging, I'll have to try and find out who owns a few sites so I can try and get some permissions 🙂 I'm glad you enjoyed this video, and sorry it's taken so long to respond.. (I'm not used to so many comments on my videos).

Thanks Beth, I hope you enjoyed this video, and will enjoy Nicola's which is coming out today too 🙂

Get a life

​@@richardeade3766 Who are you to criticise anyone else's likes and loves? Many people would likely think the same about yours.

Yes, I thought I recognised the name as one that's sometimes abused, but I couldn't remember the full details. Anti-convulsive, which gives a pleasant euphoric high when combined with something else I can't quite remember. Probably not hugely toxic when spread out over a river system, but could have killed some wildlife near where it first breaks open. Glad you enjoyed the video and my small efforts to take the harmful things out of the environment. 🙂

Thank you, and welcome. I do think Mudlarks in general are a pretty nice lot of people; it's a hobby that attracts nice. Gail and Alex though, are at the top end of the range, they're lovely. Nicola too. 🙂

Thanks; a few of my visits there have tested my strengh; both physical and mental, if I can't mentally resist, I must carry... and often I've ended up regretting how much I've attempted to carry, so I've learned to resist. 🙂

Thanks Margaret, I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙂

Yes, pretty much everywhere has some hidden history, and lots not so hidden, just in infrequently visited places. 🙂

Thanks Beth, I'm glad this made you so happy 🙂

Thanks Lovely Skull, Nicola is planning on coming back up here sometime this year, perhaps she'll bring Si up too. And the Northern Mudlarks might come down, and Let's Go With The Johnsons might come across.🙂

Thanks Alijax767, it was lovely meeting Nicola, and I learned quite a lot from her. I'm glad you enjoyed the resultant video 🙂

Nicola is so good at finding the pipe bowls; she seems to spot them from 10 ft away, in a cluttered field of detritus or through murky water. 🙂 I hope she can come up again sometime, and that I can head down to London too eventually.

Thank you, that's a beautiful perspective on what I do 🙂

Thank Sandy, I'm glad you got so much enjoyment from it 🙂

I'm praying for rain for Australia too, it's deeply horrifying what's happening, and I hope it changes for the better soon. I'm glad my videos can provide a bit of escapism from that. 🙂

Thank you and welcome, I hope you get a lot of enjoyment from my past and future videos 🙂

Aw, sorry to cause jealousy, but I'm glad you enjoyed the video 🙂

Thanks Deb, it was a good day full of fun finds 🙂

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂

What a splendiferous complementary comment, thank you 🙂

Thanks Lisa, yes, it really is an amazing site... and will be as long as the river doesn't change course again. 🙂

Thanks Donelle, I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. Hopefully won't be the last collaboration with Nicola... she seems keen to come again. 🙂

Thanks for the frog ID, and I'm very glad you enjoyed the video. 🙂

Thank you, I'm glad the site was being ultra generous for Nicola's visit 🙂

Thanks Kathy, it was certainly a treat to meet and lark with Nicola 🙂

Hi Katie, thank you for your comment, and I'm sorry you're unable to get out for similar small adventures. I'm quite lucky to live where I live, most of the areas I go are fairly unrestricted; but the history we have here cannot compare to the many thousands of years of amazing history you have there in Greece. It would be wonderful to get out searching there... but it's very strict, and I doubt I could ever get permissions. Oh well. I'm glad you enjoy my videos and the small amount I can do for the environment.🙂

Thanks Carol, I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. Alas, my voice doesn't always work on Children, certainly not with my niece and nephew... they get too into the stories, and never fall asleep when I'm reading to them. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 that's because your stories are as interesting as your mudlarking, or else I would fall asleep!!! LOL!

Thanks Sue, there's always more being worked upon... I'm just very slow. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 No your just fabulous x

@@suetaylor5186 That's very kind, but I'm also very good at getting distracted... so I tend to take 2 weeks to get a video out; if I could concentrate well I should be able to manage one a week. That's the target; not all of them mudlarking videos though.

Thank you so much, I hope you have fun and find some good things in your local river, and that you stay safe 🙂

Thanks, it was probably the best day of finds I've had so far at that site. 🙂

Thanks Lisa, it was a grand day all in all... and she does want to come again sometime 🙂

Mine as well. So interesting the history left behind. I wish I had such a place to hunt for treasures.

Thanks Chris, it was wonderful meeting her. She was the first mudlarker I saw on youtube too 🙂

Thanks Michele, it was indeed a great day, perhaps my best at that site. I'm glad you enjoyed it.🙂

Yay, I'm so glad that my videos stand up to repeated viewings 🙂

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙂

Thanks Christine, I'm glad you enjoyed both videos 🙂

Thanks Mandy, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was a wonderful day; meeting the person who inspired me to make videos and larking alongsid her. And the dump has never been better. 🙂

Tom Burleigh of course I love all your individual vids,but it's great seeing mudlarkers joining forces, well done to you all, I would love to do the Tyne with people 😀

Thanks A & S, I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I'm looking forward to watch your latest video, which I know has been out for 2 days but I haven't had a chance yet to watch. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 no worries Tom every one is busy sometimes .I'm going to hopefully do a Vally river walk soon !

'contrast', not 'contract'.

The Seltzer bottle had a really large crack in it, and was so badly scratched up it couldn't have been cleaned up nicely... I don't think it would have survived being taken along with other bottles. I hope you enjoyed the video regardless 🙂

Thank you, it is only in later life that I have become interested in electronics and how things old and new work. 🙂

Thanks, yes... it is full of so many surprising little treasures. 🙂

Thanks Sid, glad you enjoyed it. I've got plans for when the spaces get too filled up... one of them is to build my very own bottle dump in a completely unexpected, nonsensical place for a bottle dump to be, which maybe a walker or too will stumble upon in a generation or so. 🙂

I hope you enjoyed watching almost as much as I enjoyed meeting and mudlarking with Nicola 🙂

Thank you, and yes, I was incredibly fortunate to stumble on that place on my second filmed outing; it's been the gift that keeps on giving. It was great meeting Nicola, and she is indeed a wonderful maven 🙂

Yes, it was a wonderful day meeting a very special and inspirational mudlarker, I'm glad you think the contast worked well. I'm looking forward to seeing Nicola's video of the day now 🙂

Thank you and welcome, I hope you can get a lot of enjoyment from my videos. Best wishes from UK. 🙂

Thanks Teresa, I'm glad you enjoy them 🙂

Thank you, and welcome. I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of my past and future videos 🙂

You've been such a great support to me through the history of this channel, I'd happily share the location with you if you and your sister would both like to go to it. The cliff might not be safe to get to, but the beach is if you don't mind brambles and nettles too much and a km walk from where cars can be parked. I'm glad you found this so enjoyable; and hopefully I can equal that level again for you someday... probably not easy, as the dump site was on top form, and Nicola is a rare visitor (she does want to return though). 🙂

Thanks for the identification. And welcome, I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of my past and future videos 🙂

Thanks Teresa, I'm glad I can be appreciated for my differences; it makes sticking to them and not trying to copy anyone else worthwhile. 🙂

Oh wow, such detailed identifications, and absolutely correct with both! I found exact image matches, thank you so much. 🙂 I'm glad you thought of this video as a treat.

Gosh, it's so antithetical to my tastes; I wasn't sure if it was even likable, let alone loveable. It's good to know there's a person for every pot/vase thing. 🙂

Tom Burleigh . What can I say, I love the unusual and weird 😁

Thanks Salish Sea Quest, I'm glad you enjoyed it. We did indeed have a pretty glorious outing, and hopefully Nicola with visit again before long; and I might head down to London this year too. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 Would enjoy any larking you and Nicola would plan...up North or along the Thames. Something for all of us to anticipate!

Welcome to the channel, and I hope you can get a lot of enjoyment out of my videos 🙂

Thank you 🙂

I hope you had fun, magnet fishing is appealing to me but I haven't given it a go yet; or bought any magnets. Sounds like the Wharfe might be worth making a trip for someday, I have occasionally wondered if I gave good mudlarking advice... so rarely heard anything back. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope your imminent child likes treasure hunting too 🙂

Thanks, I'm glad my video can make you feel a bit better, even if it's temporary. 🙂 Recovering from a nasty chest infection myself, and sadly my videos don't work for me.

Thanks r.ridderbusch, I think the wild ride is slowing down a bit now. Back towards slow and steady channel growth... I'll get to 5k and beyond, but I'm not in a rush. 🙂

Thanks, and hello from West Yorkshire UK. 🙂

Thank you for your lovely, supportive comment. I'm hoping to do some crafting videos too, (using some of my finds) when this pandemic starts to settle down, (currently locked down away from home, where my craft supplies and finds are). It's an experience that will dramatically shape the near future, and perhaps some beautiful creativity and positivities will sprout from the terrible situation now gripping the world. I hope you're doing well, and that you, your family and friends all make it through this safe and healthy. ❤️Love & Light!☀️ Tom

@@tomburleigh9261 Thank you Tom..I am sorry to hear you are locked away from your family ..I have been painting and crafting as always..It's a little tough as I can't go very far to rock hounding ,or upcycleing..( My children say junk or garbage picking lol!)But I'm in the suburbs so plenty of rocks to paint and branches to be found in like close patch of woods.

Thanks Paul, that's a wonderful perspecive on this video, I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. 🙂 Blessings and peace be with you too.

@@tomburleigh9261 no ur more than welcome cause is the truth. There to much negative comments thumbs down or click bait stuff for my taste. The history finds are my draw beautiful country side just listening learning enjoying the journey. So take care Sunday is day a joy to watch a mixed bag of so many people doing same thing but each with own style way with each having love joy for there finds treasures knowledge to wats there passion.👍🇮🇪☘Godbless/peace🙏✌

Thanks, I hope you get a lot of enjoyment from my future videos 🙂

Thanks NutsAbourNature, it was certainly a great day meeting Nicola and larking with her. I'm sorry for the delay in the usual schedule, there was another episode done and ready, but I accidentally uploaded the wrong file before going off for Christmas and New Year, so it's postponed now till after the next video. 🙂

Thanks 🙂
