a cork would be on the bottom and a pourer for anything that needs to be poured lol

We call them Bean Pots in Georgia USA too!! You made your baked beans in them mostly.

[@SuperScorpiorising]

I have a bird ornament in the same style, it was a gift many years ago, mine is a Kingfisher! ❤

[@Sifinds]

@@SuperScorpiorising Nice!!

[@pattymelt-go3fv]

Bean pot? Ah I've found another Milliput fan! I love my Milliput!

[@lisestanley4330]

The pot is what we call in New England a bean pot. Great find. I have one that was my great grams and it was used for bean hole beans, when you cook them on coals , and bury them to cook.

[@Sifinds]

That’s very interesting thank you!

[@sekhmetsaes]

Haha! Just came by to say it's a bean pot!

[@lauriesquires5924]

Maybe could be used for salting down beans to use over winter

[@imcavdb5465]

It’s a salt glazed pot, probably German. They are fairly common in the Netherlands. It’s not for cooking, but to store food. I own several up-to 1 meter high.

[@kimquinn7728]

That pot at 35:26 is fantastic! It needs to lovingly be put back to use and regain its dignity. Beautiful. Enjoy your videos and Ms. White's.

[@amandapittar9398]

eVerY time, that shot of the two of you, hand in hand, skipping away from the camera, makes me 🤣 laugh out loud. I don’t know why. It just tickles my funny bone mercilessly. Does anyone else think that Who picture was ever so slightly airbrushed? 😂😮😂

[@Sifinds]

😂 agreed!

[@VickyPennington-de4sf]

Farting hedgehog, brilliant! As a rescuer of hedgehogs (Holderness hedgehog hospital ) and fan of mud larking this is the best clip ever. Plus thank you for supporting your visiting prickly friends

Hey Si- That's Roy Orbison Singing "I Can't Help It" from 1970. Always enjoy your great vids!

[@Sifinds]

Good guess - keep watching👍🏻🐾🧡

[@priola7587]

I was wondering if it was Hank himself.

[@derekwalters6132]

Definitely Glen Campbell singing on that track, that songs been recorded multiple times by multiple artists.

The beauty of the roses is enhanced in your newly recovered, hand crafted pot.

[@staceytroffer8287]

My grandmother (from wales) used to wear a perfume called “Lily of the Valley”, it was in a tiny tiny blue bottle with a stopper. She would order it from overseas somewhere. It smelled divine. Another was “Evening in Paris”. I don’t remember that smell but it had a really pretty stopper also.

[@Sifinds]

So cool x

[@debbiefox6846]

Oh I remember that perfume. I think my mom had some. It smelled divine!

[@priola7587]

My mom said Evening in Paris was worn by many women, in particular before deodorant was invented, and could be a bit much in a warm room full of people, such as at a dance. She had an old bottle in her dresser when I was a kid in the 60s. She was a teen in the mid to late 40s.

Mark wins the hat competition you didn't know you where having, love it.

Fab-u-lous . . . as always. I had one of those pots, so did my Nan, with a lid. General kitchen-wear item used for laying down salted veg, pickles . . preserves of all kinds, a really gorgeous find. And then there are shags . . . striking seabirds similar to cormorants . . . who doesn't love a shag? My neighbours ask me what I watch because of the whoops of joy heard through the wall . . . thank you for the joy you bring me. x x x

@@Sifinds Hi Si, I particularly liked the triangular brown bottle, the clay pot and blue scent bottle but best of all is your up-cycling! It's an art form that's totally unique, so the winner, by far, is the little china bird you gave a completely new life to!! How about you?? x

Bee Gee's, actually Pink Floyd was my first thought. Love the condiment pieces, especially the finely painted or etched red japanese design, so fine, so elegant and the deco one is just pure joy, highly creative things. Love the two handled pot, would have had a lid, being glazed inside, it was food grade, could have had olives in brine, or anything preserved with vinegar. Wet or dry storage. It has an elegant shape.

[@suzannemangino5892]

The ceramic or china item, housing the little crab, appears to be an antique hatpin holder, which ladies kept handy on their dressing tables. Nice find👌.

My dad loves the who he’s a proper ‘the who’ fan I reckon it’s Duran duran

[@SnowPink90]

How I love that you guys took the cat, the dog, the bird, and you just gonna clean them up and fix them up. Instead of them, just staying there being useless they're gonna look terrific once you're done with them. Bottles, I can't get enough of bottles!! The little blue cobalt bottle is so beautiful I have factory bottles, not mudlarking bottles though and they're nice light green. And then I've collected other bottles too with color. Some of them might fill up with shells because I love the ocean and I live right by the ocean. Do you know I never thought about grinding down a lid like the teapot lid to have it fit into the teapot that you have and I think that was just so cool to see that. Watching this video and watching you purpose what you found gives me ideas and that's what I really love about your videos and you tell us about the history of things you find and show us if the building is still a pub because I love England and it's buildings, so thank you for doing that!! See you in your next video!!😁🫖

Cat heaven!

[@NickRatnieks]

It's a Hank Williams song- "I Can't Help It (If I'm Still In Love With You)" and because it appears to have strings backing the vocal I would guess it is an Eddy Arnold recorded version from the 60s. It is on YT.

[@Sifinds]

So close! Well done

I bet it’s been said but I reckon the record. Either Lionel Richie - “Stuck on Hoo, I mean You” or perhaps it’s “The Jam - Going Underground” Love the videos, Si, thanks for sharing your escapades with us, me ol’ china 😉🙂 I’m a disabled person, Si and because I have such rubbish mobility, I could only dream about going out and doing what you and your friends do and your videos allow me to ride alongside you and let me do what you are doing vicariously and I am so grateful to you for being so generous with your time. Not just the time you spend ‘in the field’ but also the time you clearly spend in editing and all that other stuff you do behind the scenes. It’s all appreciated, Si and so are YOU my old mucker. Now there’s an expression that I don’t very often hear these days. I wonder what the etymology of “my Old Mucker” is. Do you or anyone else on here, know? Thanks Si 🙂👋🏻 bye for now

[@Sifinds]

Appreciate that Martin! I really do. Not sure myself on the Mucker origins. Google says: The word likely comes from the Irish word "muc," which means "pig." The word "muc" was often used in a derogatory way to describe someone who was messy or untidy. However, over time, the word "mucker" came to be used as a term of endearment between close friends.

[@martinconyard]

@@SifindsYou’re welcome my friend 🙂 and thank you for the info on the word, too. Very interesting. 👍🏻🙂 And a big thank you for taking the time to read the comments and for answering us. God bless you Si. I’m looking forward to the next video now. 😉 Take care matey. 👋🏻
