Prayers for you from a tiny Kansas City suburb. May the Lord bless you and keep you always. May our prayers for you and good health reach His ears swiftly. ❤

[@barbaraverdoorn9076]

Such a relaxing video! Well done and I am looking forward to the others from that beach. I love the little leg you found. And the greenish looking chandelier bauble. It made me picture it on one oh your fish, either as a fin on its belly or vertically as a blade of seaweed lol! Have a wonderful week!

[@keylesssue]

Thanks again for a wonderful show! It’s lovely to see your finds.

Merci de France, vous parlez très bien. J'aime bien regarder vos vidéos.

It was so nice being able to watch you once again, Nicola! We just suffered through three EF-2 tornadoes coming through our community in Florida last Friday, the 10th. Following that 7am wake-up call, we then spent five days without power or water, and seven days without cable and internet. To say the least, being able to enjoy you once again mudlarking has made me so appreciative of the little things in life! Thanks for a lovely video, Nicola!

[@susanbdusan2785]

Welcome back!

[@deloradeabel8487]

Glad you made it through it all!

[@sharynkhan1104]

Omg I am glad you are ok 😁 We are lucky here in the UK we don't really have tornadoes.

What coast are you? I’m happy you are fine with no injuries.

[@malagastehlaate9923]

I saw that flat iron as the waves came in and thought to myself neither of them are going to see that lovely thing!! And then Art rescued it❤❤❤❤❤

My DAd passed away 5 years ago at the age of 96. He always whistled when he was happy. Miss him everyday. 😢

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

As a boy mudlark in Ohio, I have been fascinated by glass for my whole life, apprenticing stained glass at 17 and later glassblowing for decades. 62 now I enjoy your and Si's videos so much, my favorites! The headlight in this one I'd've given my eyeteeth for:-) ! Your whale archive video was amazing as well! Cheers from Ohio!

[@stevenmatthijs1191]

The glas dish you found at 5.30 is meant to go underneath the leg of a cast iron stove. There were four glas dishes per stove which prevented rising moisture from the floor from rusting the stove legs.

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Thank you!

[@kimquinn7728]

Never heard of that before! Thank you for the info!

[@alexkastano96]

My grandpa, when i asked him - "why there are glass cups on the stove legs?" ,told me that he got to pour vodka in them sometime so cockroaches won't carry our vintage pricey stowe away to the thrift shop while we're sleeping 😂 I'm missing my old nan ,he was a ww2 soldier, spent 4 years in hell.

Bonjour Nicola, je vous suis depuis un certain temps et apprécie beaucoup vos vidéos. Merci de nous les faire partager. Votre français est excellent. Félicitations. A bientôt. 😊

[@christinashirey1178]

I’m so glad Ard picked-up that iron!

[@msidiotbox2570]

Ard and you make an excellent mudlarking team, Nicola. Loved listening to you speaking French!

[@marthaharris6064]

Nicola you are just the loveliest and most elegant lady and I did so enjoy listening to you speak french...I could only understand a word or two, lol. I really do enjoy your videos. They are a stress reliever and an escape from life's pain. You bring us great joy❤

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Thank you ❤️

[@codybrooks8333]

Ma'am you exude so much class and elegance it is unreal!!! I love your videos and just adore your personality.

[@jeanrichardson2044]

I can't believe, Nicola, that you left all those treasures I saw behind on the shore. I'm shouting and shouting, I think that's a coin, I'm sure thats a ring, but you pass right over.......i really enjoyed today.

[@ktcee803]

I LOVE watching your vids. It's like therapy!! I wish I could do some mudlarking. It looks like so much fun. Have you considered putting a bright colour on your little trowel? I'd lose it in 5 minutes.

[@seasmacfarlane6418]

My word! That ancient Roman plastic is incredibly rare you know!!😊😊😊😊😊

[@charlesperez9976]

Oh,it’s a coin toss between the old phone and that figure of a woman in a skirt(or a Scottish man). The orphans cleaned up nicely,I’m glad that they will be recieving a new home! Ahh,little squirrel❤️

Thanks Charles xx

[@leonebritt4879]

[@luana1600]

Nicola, you are so kind. You're videos are such a bright spot on a day that is in a cycle of what we on the coast of California call May gray. Days of no sun, socked in. I can NEVER choose one favorite find. 😊 Can I say all of them? 🤭 Thank you for always sending love! 💚🌺 So many people throughout the world benefit from all you do.

[@metaockelfelt8639]

My favorite. Is a token with Swedish text on that says AKTIEBOLAGET AUTOMATISKA APPARATER. It means The limited company of automatic machinery. Im sitting in Sweden and i always look att all your finds. I lived in london in the eighties. And it was all fun most of the time. Thank you for everything you do for us Nicola. Regards Meta❤

[@karenbright3737]

Lovely buttons and finds. What a good place to lark. Kind of Ard to gift you the bottle, that is my favourite find. Thank you for sharing your adventures x

[@erickapoppe9696]

Nicola, you’re such a kind and thoughtful person and overall just a lovely human being! Thank you so much for always sharing your kind talented friends and all your treasures from the floor shore! Sending all my best to you sweet Nicola! Again I thank you for your love of mudlarking and especially thank you for sharing it with us friend😊❤and you speak such lovely French and English 😊

The pipe! It was an unusual pattern. ❤

I was the first South African that Aard had on his channel ...so it was lovely to see the two of you together !

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Thank you xox

[@lalalabuschagne2333]

Another South African ❤

[@YsabetJustYsabet]

Thanks from across the pond for the wonderful video! I like Ard; his accent reminds me so strongly of Nederlandr friends I had when I lived in Germany, and of the beautiful places I saw there. A kind people, they are, and excellent friends to have. Me, I've been on vacation for over a week (I have one day left!) and it's been a little rough-- food poisoning right at the start of it, a reservation that I had to cancel due to that, just the kind of mishap that befalls vacationers. But I'm well now and got to see a magnificent museum with the world's best assemblage of Mimbres pottery at the Western New Mexico University, and to skinnydip in some truly amazing hot springs, so it was good. But your video made it even better! Favorite find... hmm; I really liked that lovely Art Deco button you found at 23:17. The design was very William Morris. Have a good day yourself, and many finds to you.

[@carenann918]

Hello Nicola! Another great day out! I saw that iron in a previous shot and was yelling at you to take it, but Aard got it later. There were a few things that looked interesting that I would have turned over or extracted, but I'm sure they were just little pieces of junk. Keep up the gooood larking! and I hope you have a wonderful summer.

[@margiecookietaylor689]

Seems like this was the first time I could see stuff I wanted you to pick up. I would love to do this. When you found the two stoppers I thought I saw a yellow bead, and a bone shaped piece of metal and then another white button. Fun looking.

[@vickieproctor1759]

I love the bowl that you found!

[@cathsully6603]

Be well. Love your videos❤

[@debrajohnson1982]

About 20 years ago I lived in Dallas, Texas and every morning I was visited by a squirrel with a withered right leg. My kitchen had French doors with decorative iron bars. He would perform gymnastics on the bars to get my attention. He only liked to eat Texas pecans, preferably the giant ones. If I ran out and presented him with something else like peanuts, he would turn his back, climb the fence and run away. The other neighborhood squirrels would then descend and eat the nuts. He was always back the next morning as he had me trained to buy pecans on my way home. Your videos are a happy addition to my Sundays.

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

ha ha that's funny. I have a fox like that. She will only eat chicken wings and last night when I had none left and tried to give her an egg she was horrified!! xx

[@kimbateman226]

Hi, it was lovely to see Ard again, he is a very interesting person full of all sorts of knowledge. What amazed me that the majority of bottles you found were nearly all intact which was a surprise as so many rocks/stones around. Fantastic finds, love all the small buttons and the little lady soldier, look forward to next video

[@vickinoeske1154]

SO MANY cool items in the place where Aad mudlarks. It's just remarkable.😊 I love the doll leg.❤

[@exscapegoatpowerfulhealer9685]

The earlier find of the pointed glass stopper is aa real gem of a find.❤

[@kathysenn7664]

French is such a lilting language! I took French in high school, many many years ago. When I hear it spoken I remember the teacher- she was tall and slender with long black hair and black framed glasses. She looked like she stepped out of a scene from a French movie. That being said , the bottle is my favorite find! Thank you for sharing this adventure! I wanted to shout out, there's an iron! I was thrilled when Aad picked it up! I want to thank you for making us all feel so welcome!

[@daviddarrall9384]

It is a real pleasure to see you again with your friend (Art?) Hope you are keeping well. Nice finds! 😊 ❤ UK. A very interesting video, thank you.Your history is so fascinating! What a Fabulous video!

Hi Nicola. This video was wonderful, with the mud bagger.

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Thank you!

[@malagastehlaate9923]

Oh, Nicola... thank you for your kind words. As you know my son-in-law had a brain tumor removed... He's thankfully doing well... but on a sad note our dear old cat Marge passed away on Friday morning... so we are missing her. Always nice to hear from you and to watch your adventures... they always fill me with joy. Enjoy seeing Ard again... always fun.

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Hi there. Im so glad that your son in law is recovering well. Please pass on my best wishes. I am so sorry about your cat Marge - it's so hard losing a loved pet. Sending you much love and hugs. Nicola xx

[@teresahamilton7801]

sorry you've lost your furr-baby. our pets are truly a part of our family & as well loved & missed as our human family members. Nearly 2 years after suddenly losing our cat Jonah we were chosen by a new little 3 month old boy who is bringing laughter, kitty kisses & comfort every day. But we still cherish the memories of past cats who've made our lives richer.

[@sherannwilliamson1453]

I agree with you. Your relationships with your pets, past and present, is exactly how I feel about my precious pets.

[@chrisberry9017]

Happy and sad news - life certainly knows how to put us into emotional turmoil! When the time is right, perhaps another puss will find your welcoming door - you obviously have a lot of love to give. X

[@perseapolaris9015]

Bonjour ..Nicola ..!! I adore the sound of the tiee of this dear Thames..!! 😊👍

[@pjcarter8230]

Greetings Nicola. Seeing the little Darelmans tag it reminded me of the time I spent in the Netherlands. I came across a Dutch Wafel maker called Daelmans who has operated since 1904, they are still a going concern. It could well be a tag that was on their tins secured by a ribbon. Thanks for your concern for those who are unwell.

[@iamshotty]

You and Ard are my favorite finds, (as well as that fabulous little pipe). Such a great place to lark with so many wonderful intact goodies. Watching you lark helps to quiet my mind. And it was wonderful to see squirrel again. Sending you so much love Nicola and Ard xx Teresa 🇦🇺♥

[@christineanderson4755]

You speak French beautifully. My daughter really loved French immersion for all of her elementary and high school years, she went to Paris in high school. It was as though it was meant to be her first language. My son, not so much. But learning a new language is difficult, I’m not sure if I could do it . The French language is so beautiful, and you lived in Paris! Mon Dieu! 😂 I enjoyed your video very much, but I always love watching your adventures. ❤

[@chrisberry9017]

Treasure hunting with Aad is always special. I really loved the iridescent perfume bottle which he found - the colouration was magical! I watch Black Opal Direct on KZbin, where Justin cuts and polishes opals, and realised the similarities. Natures opals in discarded glass. Thank you for all the time and troublethat you go to in order to bring us these fascinating videos!

I wish I had been introduced to mudlarking when I was much younger and able to walk and bendover and carry treasures.... Lovely to go along with you to see new things and meet new interesting people...Have a great week Nic BTW my Google only told me that Daelemans was a surname.

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Thank you Sandy! xx

[@teresahamilton7801]

I feel the same way! My family camped at a camp ground called China Flats where a lot of gold mining was done on the river. At the camp grnd. there was an old garbage dump. My brother would dig around in it & find bottles, cans, etc. w/Chinese labels/embossing. Unfortunately, none of them ever came home w/us. Oh, to go back to that time & see that dump w/the eyes of a mudlarker.
