I do not know him personally, not his face or age, but he is in my heart for all the nights I would have gone without sleep if not for his beautiful videos. Through the pandemic lockdown, the illness and death of my Charlie, my beloved grandchildren moving away; I watch and rewatch them. I am so grateful that we have them.

Another lovely walk along the water is so very soothing, even if you don't find valuable relics, considering eye of the beholder and all that. Amazing to me is how the early industrializations stand silent of their own accord, being torn down by only roots and ivy. I often wonder how you keep track of all the projects you have in store; how you compartmentalize them without going mad (although I hear the best people are.) Seems lately details/projects I once called up at a moment's notice, are becoming overwhelming to just think about. There's a secret to it, I know...and you have conquered it.👍🏻

It might take a bit of effort, but if you really wanted the mill trolly cart, you could tie a rope to it and drag it up to the top of the embankment. And perhaps a large wagon or wheelbarrow could help move it to the car. Would be neate to see you restore it, though.

That ceramic insulator was a wonderful find I’m sorry you lost it bet it was what I call a oh doy moment.😮 hate it I’m sure you’ll find another some other time. Interesting pieces of old machine everything is as made so solid back in the past. Time and slow moving currents haven’t completely deteriorated the metal. I to live the flashes of lights and ripples in water. I used to I’ve near the river and loved to watch the flashes of light on the little minnows as they passed by. I had a neighbor with a domestic duck and a wild mallard bred with it and their babies loved to go floating downstream. They looked very strange intend.

I was going to say it looked like you had the components to make a steampunk lamp with the insulator as a base, the brass heater part as a stem, and the brass car part float as the shade for the bulb. Darn, too bad the insulator got dropped but stuff happens. It would have been neat to be able to make a lamp from the items all found from the same trip. Typing this as I am watching the video so maybe you will find another insulator farther down the stream.

[@richardserridge2767]

Because they were broken, they look different, but those insulators are all standard number 1 style ones. They are the shippams pot of the insulator world basically, so I wouldn't mourn them either unless they had odd markings. The smaller version of that style called a "queens" pattern is nicer. I have covid currently which is awful, but your videos are always soothing. If I ever get to Yorkshire, I'll help you lug some mill carts out. I like that flotation chamber too. That "brazing torch would make a good Star Wars blaster!

[@tom_burleigh]

Star Wars blaster is a very cool idea, thanks Richard. Thanks also for the confirmation that the insulators weren't especially special. I hope you're starting to feel better, and that you aren't left with any long lasting symptoms. I doubt the mill cart is still there now, the river has been 1.5m higher than usual in the last few days, easily enough to carry it off downstream.... but, I'm sure there'll be finds I'll need help getting out again. 🙂

[@anniehartley8851]

always super photography, your location is beautiful, my rivers are somewhat dry, but we do have one or two that are not, but because of venomous snakes would not go in them. I had one not long ago creeping up my stair, nasty viper, but I like snakes, it was more scared of me, it slithered away to our Baranco, which is Spanish for ditch, ours is meters high, but when the rain comes you can hear the water rushing by. And attracts mosquitos and toads.
