Dear Simon, I first stumbled across your videos as a high schooler. I'm from America, but found the amount of history laying in the Thames absolutely amazing. Among all the artifacts, the myriad clay pipes you'd find captivated me the most. Fast forward to now. I'm now an archaeology student in college who's about to publish his first ever academic paper: on clay pipes! I've also been asked to do independent research into them at my university next semester. If it wasn't for your videos I likely never would have became interested in these artifacts if it wasn't for your videos. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your finds with the world, they've had a big influence on me!

[@Sifinds]

Well done Alex!!!

For me, it would have to be one of the more recent videos and that's the head of the Queen (bust), because it was so unexpected. You'd think because so many mudluckers that could've found it because of it's size and you were the one to get it, was amazing. Thanks again for the video Simon and crew.

I think I found the shampoo bottle! It is called "drene". Circa 1934 Procter and Gamble introduced its soap-free shampoo in the US, "made with synthetic surfactants" and closest to modern formulas used today.
