Find With a 900-Year-Old History?!

[@deborahantley4459]

I can’t believe you didn’t keep the Eiffel Tower bottle

[@peggyr2984]

A fish knife I’ve never heard of. We would have thought it a butter knife.

[@carolmay5168]

Agree. We call them a butter knife.

[@peggyr2984]

@@carolmay5168 , I looked it up and they are very similar, but the point on the end identifies it as a fish knife. I’ve got to check mine. Coming from plain folks, ours may have been misidentified, because I believe mine may also have a point.

[@helensmith2839]

So happy you saved the burnt doll head. So compassionet.

[@Karyn1000]

I love the talk at the end. I'm so glad you put that back in. Everyone seems to love the little bottles. Why don't you have a give a way sometime with ones you don't want instead of leaving them behind 😁

[@Karyn1000]

Or sell them in your shop!!

[@thekenneth3486]

No, you two could never talk too much! I love your voices and your topics.

[@ruthbond1581]

Hello ladies wonderful finds. I live in Newfoundland Canada 🇨🇦 and it happens that our capital city is St. John’s and I am a St. John’s Ambulance instructor so guess what I vote for the window of wonders lol

[@deedorothypapineau6920]

Gail, you missed a slate pencil. The blue bottle really made this a good day as well as the St. John’s Ambulance cap badge.

[@lindamartinez2896]

I saw that too.

[@j.b.4340]

[@elainebates6967]

Thank you Alex and Gail for another wonderful treasure adventure.

[@craigvespe3109]

Thank you for the history of the Gordon bottle. We were ready for a trip to Scotland in March of 2020 (nice timing!) with an emphasis on the Gordon Clan as this is my mother's maiden name. Fortunately for us, we discovered Northern Mudlarks and we've been enjoying your vlogs for years now. So thank you for everything!

[@sylviaesposito4757]

I think we have Gordon in our family.

[@myunknownland9272]

Love your storytelling and the bottle stoppers you find.

[@craftadventureswithsusanto808]

Wonderful finds! That blue bottle has me green with envy! Thanks for the trip!

[@Carolbearce]

Ah Alex as soon as I saw the doll head that Gail found I could see you making some macabre with it! Not many people of a string of false teeth. Love your sense of humor!

[@joanneemerick5785]

Lovely! Thank you!

[@joanneowen4540]

That was quite a trip you took through the undergrowth! I love how you find those beads and never leave them behind..looks so lovely strung together with all the others..thank you for the history lessons on that bottle and the badge..treasures

[@kathleenleveck9413]

Can not decide what to put in window, is schwoo going to get some peahen friends this year?

[@silverlady1118]

Cup and saucer for the window just because its a miracle they both survived intact for so long Enjoyable video 👍 ☺

[@kathrynwallkowicz7223]

Your enthusiasm is so beautiful. Love watching. Happy mothers day !

[@debrabrooks6138]

Beautiful finds! Love the history of Gordon's! Beautiful Bottle !

[@MaryABaker-rd3mm]

I love to listen to you talk about your finds and their history and I do not think you talk on too much! I enjoy watching your videos and thank you for taking us along with you. Please! ❤❤

[@DrachenGothik666]

The red & blue beads you found that you called "pony beads", are actually called Prosser beads. This particular style were made in Czechoslovakia for around 100 years. I collect old trade beads (I have thousands, some over 2000 years old) & Prosser beads were popular in Africa & that round style with the big seam at their equator were sometimes called Olombo beads. It was 2 Englishmen, Richard & Thomas Prosser, who invented the process in 1840 for making pressed porcelain buttons, later adapting his clay & metal press to make crude beads out of the same material. The French started making them in the 1860's in Bohemia (which later became part of Czechoslovakia) out of glass & the beads continued to be made into the 20th Century, where that type's production mostly ended in the 60's & 70's. The glass factories in Czechoslovakia made hundreds of styles of beads for trade with many different cultures, from Native Americans to tribes scattered all over Africa. I didn't expect to see any of that style in an English landfill!

[@judymcpheron5955]

The blue bottle and ambulance badge are cool finds. The Betty-Bopp doll I'd so sweet. 😊💕💐

[@DutchCreekRanch1]

Lovely to see you again !

[@YamIa3gypsy]

All the history in those little precious finds. Your gift of story telling and giving us a “live” snapshot of what was is fascinating. Thank you!🌸V

[@bonnerdebbie]

Congratulations on 90K, you will make 100K this year. In the US we pronounce it as TANG GA RAY gin. I love the tiny blue bottle or cup and saucer for the window of wonders!!! Thank you so very much Ladies!!! Awesome case gin bottle!

[@FalconRiverArtemisArchery]

What fun! I wish I could come mudlarking with you gals!

[@AtomicBlonde1]

Me too

[@vettnetkramer1233]

I like the small bottles and beads.

[@fairyacorn4854]

That was a really interesting lark. Loved all the tiny bottles and the badge of St John's ambulance could have been an arm badge. It looks a bit big for a hat badge and being shaped to go round the arm. Lovely small blue poison, well done spotting that one Gail. Lots and lots of lovely finds today and those lovely aqua bottles with the bubbles. The gin shaker bottle I have never seen before. What a great lot of finds you found today. Stay safe. Still laughing at your cats name every time I think of it......Ha Ha Ha.

[@merahertel6256]

Love those tiny lions and unicorns on the cap badge. Can never get enough of those lovely beads. Please do talk a lot. We enjoy the long roundups!😊

[@janicehoughtelling5137]

Some great finds.

[@graceh8866]

Lovely finds the doll heads were my favorites💕💕💕

[@SongOfSongsOneTwelve]

[@rosegilliland1845]

[@victorromeo2238]

[@colleenmccarthy-evans3149]

So many treasures! So fun.

[@aleta5873]

Love the 'little bottles'. The cobalt is especially sweet.

[@chadg4261]

Very cool video ladies! Please keep at it!

[@samanthatemplin3021]

Thank you for sharing your treasure hunting finds full of so much history with us! Truly one of my favorite channels on YT.

[@NorthernMudlarks]

Thank you so much! x

[@conniem7341]

Thanks for another great video!

[@Andbygrace7024]

Appreciate you ladies and the gift of your channel.

[@NorthernMudlarks]

Thank you so much, that makes us so happy! xx

[@lorienray6216]

Excited over St.John Ambulance badge, Its volunteer work with those that have first Aid, CPR and much more knowledge that help at public events until EMT, arrive, they do so much good for others and are recognized for their achievements, years of service Alex I would really love to know your expression when you get excited “ I am absolutely chucked”. Meaning I just love the two of you taking us on such interesting journeys, teaching me so much and how creative you both are. I would love to see Scotland one day, if I do would love to meet you both, I am finally getting some help with rare painful disease I wait a year for treatment that gives me controllable pain, quality of life for two months so I take advantage to go on a holiday. You both have gotten me through many days being bed ridden and I thank you both.

[@daisymay4183]

I can listen to you two talk and show your finds forever. You have so many and so many stories behind them. I just adore history and learning more of it thru you two. Thank you for that. 😊I loved the video.

[@lotusdolphin]

So fun to watch you find these incredible things. I find it very relaxing, but even more I really enjoy listening to the history of the pieces you find. So gratifying. Thank you so much for all your work and filming this for us. Sending lots of love from California.💜🤗🤟🏻😎🇺🇸

[@1957Moonmaiden]

I love the cup and saucer! The cup handle is so delicate. So wish I was close enough to come mudlark with you two, but California is a bit too far. In the meantime, thank you both so much for vlogging your adventures! Much love!

[@danieltporter959]

Great Finds! Congratulations on reaching 90 plus k subs.

[@elizabethpaints]

You ladies could never talk too much! The St. John's Cap Badge was exciting me. Such a magnificent history dating back to 11th Century. Love your videos, and all of the history to share with us. Have a great week!

[@michelleibbitson1205]

I love the beads when you have cleaned them up and threaded them. Also I love the cup and saucer, they would look great with a sponge wear design on them. Such a shame about the whole dolls head that was burnt , it would be good if it could be cleaned up. Great video ladies xx

[@123uschie]

Wonderful finds! I do love the blue bottle best❤

[@catherinedunham2665]

Lovely green and blue bottle Gail found, every time Gail says I LOVE IT I’m sat here thinking the same. So looking forward to the weather gets better and you guys go back to beach combing, one of the beaches you regularly go to has had some changes and the finds are wonderful.

[@tinacluff2793]

I liked the shape of the bottle at 11:06 it was different. The bottle at 22:25 would make a great lamp base.

[@oldgrumpy8035]

Should have picked up both of them

[@cjcarver6290]

Lovely finds again this week!

[@debbieobryan5607]

Thankyou Ladies, they were lovely finds.

[@bonnieikamas1201]

So grateful to have found you!❤

[@jenniferhalstead3815]

I wished you would have kept that strange kinda square big bottle. I would have loved to buy it from you.

[@margidaly6874]

What stunning finds the knife is a butter knife for lifting balls of butter at an elegant dinner. S t John's badge is so well preserved. Gordon's history I d amazing Many thanks

[@juliespade1573]

Incredible is right, thank you ladies.

[@christyweenig3399]

Love all the tiny bottles you found! I enjoy the history as well, so don't think that you go on too much, it's one of the reasons I enjoy watching. 😊 I would have loved to see the little heart closer up. Happy first day of spring from Texas!

[@cynthiat6505]

I love all your research! Amazing history! Thank you!

[@saddaddrummer]

Still watching, and still enjoying. Keep well, keep safe.

[@sisD]

Great day ladies! Loved the cap badge & blue bottle. A string of teeth! 😂 Thanks for taking us along in your hunt for treasure. 100K is on the way. 🍀

[@richardserridge2767]

That burned doll is definitely Anakin Skywalker or Harvey Dent 😂 Some great finds there, especially the bottles!

[@denisepiekarski4159]

Thanks for the good time. I love that little square of blue glass.

[@kennethboydsr3966]

Great finds love the little blue bottle !!!❤😊

[@tarrasams7423]

Hello 👋 from New York USA you Guy's found Some Amazing Finds my Favorite Definitely Was the coffee ☕️ cup the Shaker Cocktails 🍸 bottle the beads and the doll parts Thank you for Bringing me Along with you Guy's I can't wait to see What you Find Next ☺️ 😊

[@carolmay5168]

I missed you saying “it’s a leg”😀

[@kellyw.1779]

Hello Gail and Alex! I missed this video and so happy to be catching up. That was so amazing for the diggers to give y'all the Gordon's Gin bottle...it's just beautiful and enjoyed the story! I had to mention at 10:22, when Gail found the "end of a fork", I spotted a small round piece, kind of like a "jump ring" or something above it🤔...it was to the right and was sitting below that smaller yellowish rock. You can go back and spot it, I was hoping you might have seen it off camera and maybe we might see it in the end but I guess you didn't see it. Alex's spectacular find of the ambulance badge was just INCREDIBLE!! This was another awesome adventure from our "digging diva's"...the "Northern Mudlarks"!! Big ((Hugs)) and Love from Texas!!🤗💙

[@Nicole-coliebrobro]

Wow, that cap badge is in fantastic condition, love how well you clean up the metal finds. That’s a dang lot of beads!

[@julieyaxley7591]

I think the white tooth you found is actually a bead. A parcel with a bow on the front.

[@georgiaware3248]

Thank Yous😊

[@marykaystreasures]

The cup and saucer look brand new .As always you have some really nice finds Thanks for sharing your video I enjoyed it 👍♥️🗝️❤️👍

[@Suebee1988]

if you don't find another denture tooth bead you could always make the pair into earrings. It would be nice to see if you could paint/fix up your burn victim doll so she feels pretty again with hair, etc.

[@SnowPink90]

I love bottles, especially cobalt blue ones and green ones!! That’s what I’d love to search for, bottles and rocks. There were so many beautifully shaped rocks that I saw that I would’ve picked up. Another great video Ladies!! Thank you!!😍😍

[@kennethstickney8819]

The fish knife is like a mini fish server and that is how it was used with a fork slide the knife under portion of fish steady it with the fork and voila!

[@BeFree-BeFrugal]

when I was young I remember going to Leeds and in one of the shopping arcades was a shop called the Doll’s Hospital where you could take toys to be repaired. Love the history behind your finds, thank you for your research

[@blindcatvintage9181]

love the tooth string!!

[@sandybuchart6017]

Which one was the 900year old find ? I must have missed it !

[@beadladee]

I must be slow, I missed it, too.

[@beadladee]

I think it must have been the badge. It’s origins stem from monks.

[@phyllismitchell2184]

You ladies are AWESOME love watching you finding those treasures you certainly keep us entertained and I love it Thank you for giving us history behind your finds

[@gerrywood3584]

Thank God🙏for you guy's mates

[@shawnellewinters7487]

I for one enjoy hearing you "waffle on" about your finds. I like to hear your thoughts about what you’ve found. A great way to end the videos, thanks for bringing the roundup back!

[@mucho73cobbcobb95]

That Tanqueray bottle is the same shape as present pretty cool wish it was green with the red seal. Great find.

[@chrisdarbes8988]

I love the idea of a doll hospital 🏥 Also you could use the stamped metal picture frame and make a tiny frame for it and hand paint a portrait of you guys 😎

[@skullingtonfly]

Great river finds girls 👏👏👏

[@jasonbolduc5845]

Really enjoy your videos! Love watching your hands go from clean to muddy. Smiles from Florida USA!

[@debracarthew9432]

Great to see you hit 90k! I love the 'teeth string' 😄 so funny. I loved the cap badge too. Another lovely adventure Gail and Alex.

[@francesjohnson5836]

your bottles are so beautiful - how do you get them soooooo clean? The burnt doll's head - meybe can you use very fine grit sandpaper to sand away the bernt areas? Always love Sundays - love to binge watch all my favorite mudlark channels.

[@teresahamilton7801]

i didn't think the cherub would clean up so beautifully. the cap badge is the best find this wk.

[@dannmccord1923]

Lots of cool beads. And beautiful bottles . the blue one is awesome. All your finds are super cool .always waiting for your next video. Love them so

[@countesscable]

I loved this! The cup and saucer deserves to be used. The cup is a breakfast cup and I instantly pictured it full of lovely builders tea. I just love how you look for the tiny treasures. The cap badge was special. My Grandfather was a member of St John’s Ambulance during the war and was killed going to his First Aid Post.

[@lisaegan9992]

Great finds! Thank you for telling us the story of the finds!

[@Archer838]

Very interesting. Always enjoy the videos. Thank you.

[@angelavorhees5946]

Funny i thought to myself they should start stringing the teeth they find like the beads, and then you did. 😂 great minds think alike. Lol. That burnt dolls head really has a creepy Halloween vibe. I didn't mind you both "Waffling On" , your voices are relaxing and you always have interesting things to say. Totally enjoy the history lesson too. God bless and stay well.

[@catepearce2138]

Hi, what a wonderful river-lark, so many fun finds. I had thought the tooth looked like a bead, ha ha, I'm sure there must be a whole set out there. Looking forward to seeing your projects come to fruition. such a talented pair, have a great week.

[@marionlesage4794]

You’re videos bring me so much joy! Thank you for taking us along on your forages. ❤️

[@susancousins8766]

Thank you for telling us about the history on a few of your treasure finds. Thanks for all you both do!

[@christhompson4270]

Another amazing haul of precious treasures with great history too. I think the St Johns badge for the window. Take care and thank you for taking us along with you 👍🙏❤️

[@ManchesterMudlarks]

lovely video some super finds, alway great seeing your larks

[@NorthernMudlarks]

Thank you! xx

[@smeeh7598]

Great fun, thank you.

[@bearrivermama6414]

I think the burn victim should be placed next to the ambulance badge 😊. I thought right away that it was ironic that you found the burnt doll right after the badge.
