Good to see a chap able to sew a fine seam - most people your age don't seem to know how to, so well done keeping the old crafts alive, Si. (Very handy skill when you have to darn holes in your socks, too!) I've made a few of these old Victorian dolls, for a gift shop I used to make crafty things for. Actually, I just made the head, hands and feet from Fimo - i painted the face and hair and varnished to look like old porcelain. The shopkeeper would sell these doll bits as part of a doll making kit, and alongside my sculpted doll pieces, would sell a calico body cut out and ready to sew. But to stop the doll looking too stiff, also part of the kit was a small bag of sawdust or sometimes dried lentils, to stuff the calico body with - that's what they used in Victorian times. You would sew the kit up, stitching the small holes around the neck of the doll, and also the holes on the top of the hands and feet, stitch up the calico body, then pour in the sawdust or lentils through a small opening in the side. It made the doll quite bendy and able to sit up on her own - then the doll maker had all the fun of sewing up a dress for the dolly to wear over her calico body. Your doll has lots of charm and character - but maybe try sawdust or lentils as stuffing, and a simple body made of calico next time. As for a name, why not call her an old Victorian name not much in use anymore - a girl's version of your name, Si - how about Sibella?!

Hi there Si and Tim. What an unusual but lovely shaped bottle Tim found. That little white bottle seems to have clouds on it. I so enjoy listening to the history you dig up on the items you find. Oh, a cut little bird came to cheer you on. Hmmm, unusual colored bottle, flammable?, or poison? 😂Yes, blame it on the wells. The George or Edward pipe is really nicely detailed.

And also yes, it has been raining nearly non-stop this May and now June here. Roll on summer ☀️. Will be happy to have the sun without humidity this year. Lovely to see those finds unearthed.

Simon... Great dig... Did you see the mallet bottles found in the US this week? They were found in the cellar of George Washington's home, Mt. Vernon, during a remodel... They pulled up the flagstones in the cellar and found 16 bottles full of berries, 12 bottles full of cherries, and 1 bottle of mixed berries and cherries... All bottles from the mid 1700's!! They were amazing!!

The first female figure you found would make a precious toilet roll lady cover! As always a joy to watch, a reminder of grannies old kitchen waste dump, that was used well before them, some crafting/ up cycling,a kitty spotting, many fragments and whole momentous of the past and the haunting wonder of who held them before their debut on you tube, and finally but not least a lot of mud from which awesomeness lays beneath, who could ask for more? Well me as I can’t wait for what your next adventure has in store! Best wishes to you all from Camden Town x

I wonder if the lemon concentrate was more a guarantee for health and safety in terms of scurvy prevention since it named all those modes of travel and adventur.

Si, I see faces in things, too. Along the shore of Lake Michigan, USA, I see faces in rocks and pieces of drift wood! I have quite a growing collection! That's a great face you found!!

Well look at that….Si made his first voodoo doll lol….Regarding the French writing, perhaps the person who did the advertisement on the bottle meant the word “condiment”, makes more sense than a condom. Love the show Si…fan from Canada, cheers! .

Maybe the term condom, if that's what it meant in the 1800s / early 1900s, implied it was protective and helped you on your travels if you were lacking 'whatever'. Not literally. State the obvious, but condoms protect from harm.
