[@stiofanmacamhalghaidhau765]

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks! Even the little bits are so thrilling!

[@SaltwaterSean]

Yes!! loved this one

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks Sean! Was a super memorable river adventure 🐟

Smart thinking with the taverns. Most folk just go for castles and estate houses. The wee island at the top of Loch Lomond is quite good too once you see past the empty Tennents lager cans and Buckie bottles. We used to use it to rinse off the diving gear coming back down from Oban

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

What sort of age of stuff did ya find there 🤿?

[@bam-skater]

@@bottlesfromthedeep It was one of the islands on the Tarbet-Ardlui stretch. There's parking at the road to a rough clearing that the Weegie yootz use for a weekends camping/bevvying..."Awright err, are yooz they deep sea divers'n'that. Gaunny show's yer knife?". Nothing too old but we were only nipping in for a quick rinse off and not looking for anything. Just pootled out to the island and back again. The stuff that got a pokey-finger was mostly early 1900's bits'n'bobs I'd guess. As a curious wee story one of my buddies found an old bottle from a Helensburgh chemists there, turned out it was another guy in the clubs grandfather that was the chemist, small world!

Great finds. Great video. I bet a window made from those bases would be like a rainbow everyday

[@Arlene-1313]

Great video as always! Loved the wee Bovril bottle!

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks! It’s such a nice bovril isn’t it! Lovely golden amber fade on it!

[@ladyellice1863]

“The travelling piss artist”! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love the cream pot and the Bovril bottle… both still looked useful? Great very early finds too… what a great dive! 👍🏻😃

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Hahaha always find them near piers and railway stations and things 🤣 commuter spec booze. Yeh the Bovril and the cream pot are in amazing nick!! Maybe get some tiny dried flowers in the Bovril 🌸

Another absolute heater from the best channel on youtube

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks man!!

[@pacediver2594]

Great spot and finds

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks! It’s such an exciting stretch of river!

[@mudlarkingmarionette]

Awesome study in early bottlenecks ; great mention of Brian Eno ( My life in the bush with Ghosts) great album and nowt wrong with a pale amber bovril. Lovely underwater filming and natty goggles.

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Might put that album on now you mention it! Really enjoying that bovril it’s the best we have found yet!

[@myordinarytreasure]

Another brilliant video, always so fun to watch 👌 Love all the keepers, particularly the whisky and the beautiful early glass...🖤

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks Jane!! Enjoyed making this one as it was a genuinely thrilling hunt 😁

[@roblafay7121]

Love your videos! Much prefer the full length adventures over the shorts.

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Great to know! Much prefer making them as well. I don’t think anyone really watched the shorts anyway. Experiment over 😂

[@Cmay4627]

Another great video 💪

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thank you Sir!

[@LadyArseling]

Very cool finds. Good pup too. 🐾

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks! He’s a good boy!

[@123uschie]

Great finds!

[@jamiemorgan4146]

Welcome back mate! Good to see another dive. One day you’ll find Nessie! 🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐲

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Hope not that brown trout was surprising enough 😂

[@naradaian]

You are cleaning these things SO well now…some of my old finds from 40 years ago are still brown stained…..how are you getting them so clean now. Totally fab episode

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks! This is our protocol! 1:scrub outside with abrasive pad and a bit of barkeepers friend powered 2:bottle brush 3:if still stained inside get some copper shot in there and shake it about! 4:do it I front of a bright lamp to show up all the brown bits!

[@skullingtonfly]

Fascinating 👍🏼

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Thanks! It’s a great spot!

[@joheldenbrand4985]

❤❤❤❤❤ you channel

[@michaelsewell3706]

That was great , you must be chuffed.

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Very very chuffed! Felt very close to the history down there!

[@ianmckenzie7392]

The sign I believe is for camp coffee

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Very interesting! Find plenty of the bottles but great to find an advert for them then!

[@XxXx-rn2fe]

Pesky wasp on hand at 8:35 😂

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Woah I didn’t even notice that 🤣 they’ve been coming to see me a lot ever since I saved one from the middle of a loch the other day 🐝

[@XxXx-rn2fe]

@@bottlesfromthedeep I thought you were maintaining your standard high level of professionalism by pretending you hadn't spotted the wasp! 😂

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

@XxXx-rn2fe think I was too shocked by the early neck to notice it 😅

[@sscarysstories]

1:17 do we know what that is?

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

I think that’s the cross section of a larch tree or something! All the growth rings!

[@jimwinter4635]

Why don't you cut off the broken tops of those bottles and sell them??

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Great idea!

[@naradaian]

Grinder tool would allow a lot of precision as you could work down to a smooth shape that stands up when placed…

[@bottlesfromthedeep]

Might well invest in one. I could finish them on my water cooled ski grinding machine as well!
