A Mini-lark, for Old Time's Sake. Woodland dumpsite searching.

I had a brief window of time to kill, and spent it seeing what I could find in this old farming community dumpsite in the woods. This is not the best video, it's more a collection of odd little shots without much cohesion... I didn't really set out to make a video, but I filmed an intro just in case, and then had a few pretty good finds, so I thought why not!? It's a one off... and the next video is still scheduled, (fingers crossed) for next week.
I hope you enjoy this video, if you do, then please give it a like, a subscribe, a comment, a share... whatever you feel comfortable with. Suggestions, comments and criticisms are all welcome.

Tom, any of your videos long or short is a pleasant addition to my day. I don't really like "shorts" but a shorter video from you is better than no video. Thank you! I hope your girlfriend had a nice visit.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Melody, I think she enjoyed seeing her friend, there's not been anywhere near as much social in her life over the last few years as she'd like; we're only just starting to get back to it now. Hopefully a more usual length video will be out next week; I'm experimenting a bit with format, even going so far as Shorts... but I'm not counting them as my usual scheduled video. 🙂

@@tomburleigh9261 Here's to more outings all around.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Wow, somebody's kindly identified the Ambulance (Thanks so much Dave), and it's a rare, pre-war, Charbens Military Ambulance, made of slush moulded lead... and currently selling on eBay for between £75 and £265 depending on condition. Obviously, this one is very damaged, but it does still have the man on the back, missing from the £75 example. Attempting to restore it myself might be the wrong choice, inexperienced as I am... but it's the choice I'm going with, if for no other reason than I really want to give it a go. 🙂

[@sarahstrong7174]

Wow, that ambulance is a very odd design. I mean that poor chap clinging on to the back is in prime position to be picked off by any one with a gun!

It is a pretty nice place to live... quiet most of the time, and close enough to town or the woods, or the hills. Except when it gets really cold, and the road ices over, and the water supply freezes. 🙂

[@guadalupeknippen528]

The lead toy ambulance is fabulous! I really enjoy when mudlarkers find these precious toys. I've never seen an ambulance before and as bonus it even has the man hanging on to it. I think it's a once in a lifetime find being that it is so detailed. Thank you for bringing us along. 🌻🐕🥰🇺🇸

[@tomburleigh9261]

Yes, I very much do take it as a compliment; I've had insomnia before, and anything that helped me sleep was worth celebrating. I'm glad you enjoy any sized video I manage to upload. 🙂

[@marydegenkolb9603]

Any video by you Tom, is a joy. I love the Ambulance. When I was in the National Guard here in USA, I drove one that looked like that. It was a surplus from WW2 and had a straight 6 standard transmission. I was able to drive a stick shift auto, so I was the driver. Fond memories.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Mary, and wow... that sounds like quite a memory. The ambulance depicted in this little lead toy supposedly predates WW2, so perhaps you drove an interwar one. 🙂

[@wildlifeathome]

For so many of us that don't have the opportunity to get out and lark around, almost any video is a good one. The part you mentioned terrible footage gave me a sense of how steep and precarious you were while investigating a bottle. The camera never really puts things like that in perspective until things start sliding down the hill. Cheers!

Thanks Carol. You saying you've missed my videos makes me wonder if KZbin isn't notifying people much at the moment; I released a full length one last week that hasn't had many views. Oh well, I'm glad you enjoyed this. 🙂

[@PolyvoreThea]

May I suggest making wind chimes out of the utensils dangling from a plate or teapot? I’ve got one and I love it. I don’t think they were larked, but they are nicely aged and sound amazing. The height you hang them, and the ‘paddle’ or item you hang the around to bang into can be tuned. My mother who just passed away always gave wind chimes in memory of people passing. The intention was to think of the person when you heard the chime. I loved the ambulance!!!!!!! What a magical find! The cup is quite a piece too! I like this short video. I enjoy any outing you make!

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Thea, I think that's a lovely idea, and I have a friend who's recently lost someone close... he watches the channel too, so I think he'd appreciate a wind chime made with larked finds. I'm glad you enjoyed this. 🙂

The ambulance is delightful,and,I must say,I have,over the last few days,watched the seasons pass,through that beautiful view out of that window. The landscape ,be it winter,summer,autumn,or spring,it captivates me! And,I always hope to catch just the slightest glimmer of a reflection of the mystery that is Tom. A precious few know your face,the rest of us,we struggle to match a visage to the voice! Be well,Tom.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Charles, it is indeed a wonderful window and view... I don't look through it every day, but every time I do there's something worth seeing. It's often a hard thing, to film the roundups without getting a reflection in. There is one video, with a very brief, but quite clear reflection of me in a ripple of water... or there's a photo of me on my FB author page (a bit old, haven't really been trying to be a writer since I started making videos). 🙂

[@gayleowens5057]

The ambulance is lovely as it is

[@tomburleigh9261]

True, but the one remaining wheel has fallen off, and it's got some toxic lead oxides on the surface... so it's not something I'm really comfortable displaying as is.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Elizabeth, I'm glad you enjoy watching them. That small bottle in the crack of the wall makes me want to go back and dig a bit along the wall line... the land is about 12 inches higher on the dumpsite side than it is on the other. 🙂

As i may have mentioned, tom burleigh, your my very favorite mudlarker. Everything you've put out so far has been just delightful :) I was excited to hear you may do some readings or narrations, your voice and your pronunciations are so pleasant to listen too, so thank you in advance, i look forward to hearing more of your dulcet tones 🤗💛

[@tomburleigh9261]

Aw, you may have mentioned it before, but it's still nice of you to say. The readings videos will take a while, I'm hoping to put them on a separate channel, and that takes some organising; having enough uploaded to start with to tempt people into staying there. First, there will be a few more poem readings on this channel, including a few of my own... they'll eventually get migrated over to the other channel, where I hope to do occasional book readings. 🙂

[@lmb423]

Lovely. I really look forward to your poetry readings then 🥰

[@rikspector]

Tom, Short but sweet. THis morning I met a woman at a local thrift store who lived in Yorkshire with her family, moved to South Africa(her Father was an engineer for De Beers, the Diamond mining firm), Then back to England where she graduated from High School, before coming here to the Northwest area of America. She had an American accent, Her early one lost over time , and I told Her about your website and the farmhouse and sheep below you. She said her house had been one of those old, old country ones, as well. She remembered her life there, but said her fondest memories were from South Africa. I asked her why and she said the climate, because although quite hot at times ,it was generally more consistently warm than Yorkshire. To each their own. I love your change of seasons and though harsh during the winter months, has the variety that I grew up with and demonstrates Nature in all Her glory. Cheers, Rik

@@tomburleigh9261 But it doesn't always have to be perfect, right? Even if the restoration doesn't work well, sometimes the path is the goal. Another KZbinr, whose videos I really enjoy watching (Atomic Shrimp, if I may use the name here - otherwise please just delete the comment) has started a series at the moment. He tries to make clay pots himself. Unfortunately, a lot of things break when the clay objects are burned. But he communicates very well that sometimes the learning process and the work are almost more important than the end result. A very good inner attitude, I think. So, I would be really interested in a video about the restoration of the car.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Karyn, it was a bit of an experiment really to see if shorter videos worked. They seem to, so more should be coming, dotted amongst the longer ones. 🙂

Ciekawe miejsce 👍 Pozdrawiam serdecznie 🇵🇱

[@tomburleigh9261]

Dziękuję. To miłe miejsce, mam nadzieję, że znajdę tam więcej rzeczy po powrocie. 🙂

I really enjoyed your short lark and always fascinated with bottle finds. You should offer the extras for sale others bottle diggers sell them

[@tomburleigh9261]

I haven't had much success with posting vintage bottles. I wasn't selling them, just sending them to people as gifts, and though I'm pretty good at packaging things up (I used to sell a lot of different things on eBay and Amazon), about 10% of the bottles didn't survive the journeys. That makes me reticent to try selling them.

A short but as expected a wonderful voice & video. ✨

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks sis D. 🙂

Nice tour today, Tom. Glad to see you again. Cheers buddy.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Cheers Martin, glad you enjoyed it. 🙂

The bottle in the wall...could be a story there!

[@tomburleigh9261]

Yes, I thought that when I was editing, and I heard me say that. Not writing much at the moment, so please feel free to write it. 🙂

Such a wordsmith! It looks great to have that dump nearby, bit I'd have to do a dig 😉 Quite a few bottles I'd take from there. That ambulance could be Mazak (a zinc alloy) like other toy cars. Early ones were susceptible to mazak rot due to impurities.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Richard. I guess it could be an alloy, but I'm pretty sure part of the alloy is lead... it's very heavy for its size, is quite soft, and the remaining wheel is exactly the same as many of the lead wheels I've found at the base of the cliff site. If you visit this area, I'll be happy to share this location with you for a little, surreptitious dig. 🙂

[@richardserridge2767]

@@tomburleigh9261 I think you're right then as the zinc alloy is much harder than lead.

What a lovely surprise..! I loved this video as I was on my way out and had just enough time to watch it. Lovely bottles, especially the little poison and the brown jar. Looking forward to the restoration on the ambulance as well.. I hope the little person hanging on to the back keeps hanging on..hahaha!! Good job Tom.. thanks as usual

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Petri Chor, I hope you have a nice time out. 🙂

[@josephpotterf9459]

Thanks Tom enjoy them all. Sunday evening here in the states N E Georgia .

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Joseph. 🙂

Hi Tom, Good Video, You found some interesting bits and pieces. I do like the blue cobalt glass rod that you found and the lead ambulance...🙂👍🏻

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Eddie. I'm going to have to give bead making a go sometime soonish with some of the glass rods I've collected, and try to restore the ambulance 🙂

You could make a wind chime with your found cutlery. I don't know that they'd make a very pleasant sound, but it would be a way of displaying them.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Malinda, certainly worth a try. 🙂

[@maryarney1350]

As always, thank you, your work and efforts are greatly appreciated. I am happy to find shorts of yours in scrolling through, they remind me to appreciate the small visits. Like getting a post card from someone you haven't seen in a while but are happy to know you were in their thoughts recently.

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Mary. The positive response I'm getting from this has convinced me that I should edit up some of the footage of short visits to places I have. I probably have another 5 places I'd like to revisit, which I don't think will have enough interest to make big videos from, but will be fun to search again. 🙂

[@patrickmaguire1407]

You are a gem 💎

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Patrick. 🙂
