I visited England 2 years ago. After traveling for a week I stopped in London. I was exhausted, ill and completely knackered. I leaned over the Westminster Bridge and cried tears in the Thames and then I saw a clay pipe stuck in the mud .It put an instant smile on my face, and still does every time ya’ll find a pipe. Thanks for making me smile 😊

I visited London in 2019 also and saw a mudlarker over at Queen's Walk, I think it was near London Bridge. He said he'd only found a few bricks, a couple of which were Victorian. I wish I'd thought about mudlarking when I lived in London in the 1980s.

@@huub1989 one of my worst experiences was leaving some things in an apartment my parents owned where I’d been staying when I moved out of state until I got settled in my own place. She put a pregnant cat in there. Everything was boxed up in one room except for a 40s apartment size china cabinet, enameled table, and 2 ice cream parlor chairs. I’d been collecting embroidered linens, including a lot of my own work. Much of it Inherited from my great aunt. Hundreds of family photos. Somehow the cat got in there. I don’t know how this all happened because it was a few weeks after I left. But someone had lit a lamp in there. The cat knocked it on the bed. The apartment burned up. I got no part of the insurance money. Somehow, tho, a few years later, I found some of my things in a closet upstairs in the main house and YEARS later found that my sister had a lot of those photos. Stuff I KNOW there was only one copy of. If everything was destroyed, why wasn’t everything destroyed? How did it get into a completely different dwelling hidden in a closet? I try not to speculate because this would have involved my mother and both sisters. But it wouldn’t totally surprise me.

Another quirk of the Welsh language is that instead of saying (for instance) large field, they would say field large - maes teg. Maes is field, teg is large. Red castle - castle red - hence Castle Coch. The ch in coch is pronounced like a Liverpudlian would pronounce it, a bit like a cat's hiss but without pronouncing the ss. Every day is a school day!

a hat trick is a hockey term ... in days gone by, days when every man wore a hat if he were out in public, if a skater scored three goals in the same game (not easy) the crowd used to throw their hats onto the ice: hence, a hat trick. Nowadays, it's still called a hat trick, and maybe a few hats will hit the ice, but not like the old days where it would be raining hats.

I just remembered the time I was walking along the edge of the river near me when the water was low and the exposed 'beach' was littered with glass and pottery shards. I didn't look that closely because I had my dog with me and there was a lot of broken glass. Someone told me later that it was the site of a Victorian era dump that was being eroded. There used to be a row of cottages along the bank that had been demolished. I didn't think much of it until i started watching Si-finds videos. I just raced down there before it got dark but the water was too high. I'll be back, for sure.

Those were great finds i realy liked the tile. My late Brother in law worked for a tile firm here in the potteries and i was always intrested in hearing how they were made.he would have loved that one for sure. Are you able to keep the coins and the tile.

Love that Eagle ! Well done on your floor tile. Thought swimming was banned in the Thames. If you resin coat your tile, it will preserve it forever.

Funny when they stopped making tooth powder they began to make Vim ! I remember as a kid running out of toothpaste and having to use my fathers 'smokers powder', THAT was basically Vim !

That is one beautiful echinoid Simon, -I haven't found a Thames echinoid yet but have plenty of echinoids from my fossil hunting days on the coast 🤗 The tile is amazing as are the trader's token and 1600's French coin, always lovely to see you and Nicola mudlarking together!

I believe there can be many uses for old cogs they could be used for wall art ,floor tiles, little canvases for resin art, stacked up art,a base for a stool or under a pot or sold as history of Victorian industrialism.

Another fabulous day down on the banks of the Thames. Does she ever cease giving up her rare and unusual treasures? Si, you’ve got this down to a fine art. You must have a really great museum at home by now. Also love the arguing geese, or were they ducks? Congrats to your friend over his Ab Fab finds too. And you have spent heaps on this what with different metal detectors, ladder, equipment at home, old records to suggest themes etc. Very imaginative! That’s why you have so many followers. Keep up the great work and many thanks for sharing it all with the world!
