[@sandylee9564]

You guys are much more than mere mudlarkers. Environmentalists, volunteer using your own time, money and skills to help your community and city, I've seen compassion and caring about the most mundane thing such as a one eyed doll that begs to join the other Thames orphans, or the beat up metal ships lantern that filled with light once again. It is all so magical. And, it's all done with a smile.

[@Sifinds]

Aw thanks Sandy

[@Little_Red_Riding_Hoodlum]

Highest praise for those MVS guys and all of the services they provide and to those who's lives they have changed!

[@nicolawhitemudlark]

Great video Si. I was spoilt for finds that day. Thanks for inviting me along! x

[@Sifinds]

It was a pleasure mud bud!

[@murder13love]

Sometimes I'm gutted I moved away from London, you're lucky to have your passion on your doorstep :)

[@middleagecrazy4234]

I love when you do things together and with other friends. Seems so fun to laugh together.

[@Catmoore60]

I know in theory that the Thames is a massive river, but when you show these sorts of vids, it really brings it home. It’s so cool to be able to share these outings with you all. Thanks! Especially since I’m unable to get out or do much per being my mom with Alzheimer’s primary caregiver. Your vids really help take my mind away for a refreshing bit, and my mom likes to watch them too! She especially likes Si’s accent!

[@eileenw6002]

Similar situation for me. I’m caregiving for my husband who has Ataxia. These videos are so interesting and fun to watch. I had no idea how large the river is! Our Chicago river is a tiny creek compared to the Thames! Thank you for such great content!

[@kathyastrom1315]

I love waving back at people! When I was a little girl and we visited Grandma’s farm on Sunday, after running around and climbing the apple trees, we would occasionally sit in the front yard under the big tree and wave at the rare car driving past. We loved it when they would wave back.

[@theklawilkinson6217]

What a wonderful experience. Looks like the two of you had a blast. Shout out to Duncan and Frank - what a great organization. Love all the finds especially the lead types. Nicola may have to share her pie recipes!

[@Wvnursey]

What a beautiful day on the Thames! Simon and Nicola together is always fantastic! Well done both of you learning how to drive the boat! And of course lovely finds! Cheers!

[@Sifinds]

Cheers Cindy! 👍🏻🐾🧡

[@Aksnowberry]

Thank you for letting us be a part of your fantastic finds!!! Love watching Si and Nic digging in the muck to find treasures together!!! As always the fantastic duo of luck in the muck, a most excellent team!!

[@amandapittar9398]

Should have known Nicola would know her way around a good pie and how to decorate them. They looked delicious. Picnic food is always good, especially the homemade stuff. Your finds were great. Had me sighing. I used to live a five min walk from Wandsworth Bridge. Ah, memories.

[@Sifinds]

Cool! Cheers!

[@janicescragg2388]

I loved this episode. Wish we had someone here that could teach river boating on the North Saskatchewan River. I want badly to get out on the River but feel intimidated by it. It is a fickle river near Edmonton because the depth is subject to the mountains and the dam up River. I almost lost a pair of pants once that I had thought were far enough away from the waters edge but the water level had snuck up on them while I was busy rockhounrding😜😁. Even though the other finds were cool my favorite is the match striker. So good to see you and Nicola out hunting together again.

[@elainedavies8485]

Great to see you back with Nicola on the foreshore . So many interesting finds ! Really enjoyed the video as always but then again Sunday's wouldn't be Sunday's without you !!

[@ErichVonNasty]

Nicola really should market a signature line of stripey shirts. I’d buy one.

[@janisfallstich1567]

Love when you two team up to "lark" together. Thanks Si and Nicola. All the best from Michigan 😊

[@paulapirpignani4802]

Michigan👍

[@aengusmacnaughton1375]

Great to see any volunteer folks helping out with navigating and boating! And wow -- the fastest way to travel in London, zipping down the Thames in a boat!!! :-)

[@Sifinds]

Great isn’t it. Cheers pal! 👍🏻🐾🧡

[@thurin84]

its so nice of frank and duncan (and the other of the mvs) to volunteer teaching their boat handling skills. i wonder how many tight spots they saved people from getting into with their expertise? it must be exciting getting to search new, hard to get to seldom if ever searched territory!

[@chrisosh9574]

Two really nice guys, it's people like that who help to keep the humanity in society. I really liked the match striker!

[@phoebejones2070]

Giving the ole' legs an airing there I see Simon.....first flash of the season?

[@Sifinds]

Had to be done. Haha

[@christineaygin6701]

Hi Si , lovely to see you and Nic larking again together, that's a great service that the volunteers provide for the community. Btw I used to play with those gobs in the 60's , style was exactly the same . Take care xx

[@pennycarter3433]

I played with them in the early 1950's. They were the same then, we called them dabs.

[@debbiedavis-polimeni5785]

I live in Melbourne, Australia, the lockdown capital of the world. Thank you Si and Nicola for helping me get through some long, lonely days. Your knowledge and enthusiasm for artifacts found has been wonderful to watch. Thank you for taking me on your adventures through the mud and muck. Thumbs up also to the History Hunters and their hovercraft. Cheers to all.

[@ricksheetz1873]

some nice finds, enjoyed the 2 men with you all, if I were over there I'd take advantage of their organization I hope they get more people to join them great thing their doing

[@Adam-Gates-Mudlark]

[@karenpelletier5707]

Thanks for the fun video! Looks like you two had a great time with fun finds!

[@Sifinds]

Thanks Karen!

[@bertallsort694]

[@phoebejones2070]

Nice lot of finds today and nice to see Nicola as well.

[@normiron736]

Another cool vid! Would love to see you, Nichola and Addictedtobleeps all out together in the hovercrafts sometime, that would be totally epic! Loved the match striker, btw. Thanks again for making the sunday afternoon complete 👍👍🇬🇧

[@keepdigginmetaldetecting]

The pies look great, Nic. I wish I was there too!

[@bonnerdebbie]

Wonderful video Si, looks like you and Nicola had a grand time. Lovely finds and tasty lunch on the foreshore. Thank for taking us along.

[@Wreckdiver59]

Pretty cool to see some familiar London sites from the water. Plenty of nice finds today along with a bit of history. Thanks for the video 👍

[@impunitythebagpuss]

Yay...love Sundays! Saving this for later! Can't wait to see you both ...and meatpies!

[@wadeaminute]

Ohh please Si use the boats ; it can open up new mud larking foreshore territory : Take a free boat say every month take your pals plus the beautiful Nichola with her pies too - Thoroughly enjoyed this video and it’s quirky finds - But-the two guys explaining the boats charity was awesome - Well done 👍

[@Sifinds]

Thanks Diane!!

[@SnowPink90]

Great finds!! What a great way to help people who are down and out. It was so nice to hear how the two gents helped that one man in rehab and how the man would’ve been at home in bed but instead, he was out on the water. That’s so great!!! While you were talking to the two gents I was noticing how fast the water was moving. Incredible!! Great video SI!!🌊🐬

[@ediefolta9494]

Great episode! My two favorite mudlarking buddies! And so happy to see that Nic got a new jacket to keep her warm and dry!

[@davidmurray9844]

What a great team, thank you for sharing

[@gailarmstrongmowat1803]

Informative, interesting and fun, Thank you Si & Nicola, I look forward to Sundays to mudlark along with you.

Thanks Gail! 👍🏻🐾🧡

[@eileenmurphy5718]

Thank you for sharing this service and the finds

My pleasure 👍🏻🐾🧡

[@lovelyskull3483]

Thank you Simon. Such a great organization and mudlark.

[@conitorres9774]

A new site, new adventure. That was a great helicopter shot.Nic got herself a pretty decorative ring. I love the match striker, lovely piece. The hanging hay is great thing, love to see old customs still alive. Great steering, Si ! Egyptian geese- tourists, 😂. Wonderful group , the MVS. Teaching children about river and helping people. This is 👍. I Enjoyed the video today.

[@TwospotzArtAndCraft]

What a nice day out, nice friends, nice boat on the Thames etc. Thanks for the little extra Bridge Spotting treat. :-D

[@Whocares.........]

Well done Simon! Thanks

[@marydegenkolb9603]

Simon, we have an organization like that here in the US, its the Coast Guard Aux. and they teach water safety, help in rescues, education and social projects. If you own a boat or even a canoe, you must have their class on safety. So its nice to see our cousins across the sea. As well as some great finds. Kit and Caboodles found a lion pot and several pieces. The lion faces are applicated and are easily removed. But they are still looking for a complete one. Love the tour of the Thames.

[@Sifinds]

Nice one Mary!

[@impunitythebagpuss]

What a totally perfect day! Good weather, good friends and great finds! And excellent pasties!

[@Sifinds]

Thank you!

[@ralphwood9865]

Nice vlog Si thank you .

[@steveshepherd2712]

A very different view of London when you take the river trip. Lots of researchable finds, fun to put the old deer stalker hat on and get on the computer just like Sherlock would do 😉

[@northernflicker6590]

You and Nicola are a mud larking force! I love a day out on the Thames. Thanks for bringing me along all the way from Oregon ❤️

[@Sifinds]

Thanks so much!

The MVS are so interesting! Can't wait to see more with them.

[@llmifg]

Now you've got a line on transportation! Martine Voluntary Service seems a terrific organization, and nice guys. You're putting London's rep to shame with all the sunny weather.

[@Zandain]

Sunday w. Si!! ☀️👍 love it! What a fun trip w. some great 'men of the Thames' & Nic! 💙 Hello from Denmark 🌸🌱

[@municipalband2507]

Good for you Si, giving such a big platform to the MVS to let them get the word out about their work. Well done.

[@Sifinds]

Thanks - it was a mutual benefit : )

[@kathyn8780]

great video tonight and what a wonderful voluntary team on the Thames ....

[@amandabell8827]

Great video Si and wonderful finds! Good on the MVS, what a great charity! wish I lived closer I would love that 😃 x

[@andrewexcell747]

Hi guys from a wet NZ. Good selection of wee finds today. Such a nice day to be out mudlarking The views from the boat are pretty damn good. Funny how you and Nicola both found pipe stems by the same person ! Thanks for the adventure , See you next week, cheers.

[@Sifinds]

Right! Thanks 👍🏻🐾🧡

[@johnhagemeyer8578]

Captain Si, another great Video. I like the narration of scenery you pass on the way to your " spot" as well explaining the things you find. You must work non stop all day long. Just know that your long hours not in vane . At least in my book. Thank you

[@theresabraddock9310]

THIS is one of my favorites. eclectic and unusual finds plus motoring under the many scenic bridges and landmarks and includes Nicola and boat 'driving' instructions. btw we used to call it "driving' when it was a little motor boat. hehe

[@americanborn3151]

Si this on my bucket list. I want to come across the pond and spend a couple of days tagging along with any of you willing me to tag along. This stuff is absolutely fascinating . I love the historical aspect of the hunt. You guys are so lucky to have this opportunity. Thanks for sharing this with us. I drive the wife crazy with this

[@christopherbrewer9368]

A wonderful Lark with my two favorite KZbinrs! Thanks for sharing the adventure Si and Nic!
