What spilled from the wound the river cut. Mudlarking and wading with clear bottomed buckets.

We went Wading with glass bottomed buckets; finding relics and things from an old dumpsite that the river has carved into.

Hi Tom. Great to see this video and remember the great water lark we had. I’m just about to go through the Eurotunnel on my way back to Holland, so I will watch this under the sea!! How apt!

[@tombrooks3812]

Good to see you Tom,really enjoyed the rock skipping it brought back memories of two good friends from my childhood whom i havent thought of in years. We used to skip those things for hours it actually became a game with us to see who could find the best skipper then prove it.Those we great days.Thanks again for brightening up my day🤩🙂😊✌️

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Tom, I think there's something like that in my childhood too, though my memories are vague (aphantasia, comes with some quirks). I had a game with myself for a while, trying to skip the most unlikely stones 🙂. I think it improved my skipping overall, and I've managed to skip some very unwieldy shaped stones.

[@hazel3564]

I love the running water, so soothing! The buckets with clear bottoms are a great idea, I certainly didn’t mind your use of one while filming. So many metal finds, good for you!

[@tomburleigh9261]

Thanks Hazel. Hopefully though I can find a way of filming with the bucket a bit better.... not next time *(that's already filmed), but from then on. 🙂

[@briantyler689]

Very enjoyable video and as for those little bits of scrap metal. well apart from the fact they should not be in the river some of those bits could easily turn out to be of Historical significance. And the of course what is just scrap can be financially benefitted from when collected in sufficient amounts.

[@aliencat11]

I love the camera, what a grest find! Take care, and thanks for sharing this video.

[@Devils-Advocate]

Wow, the water is so low. I definitely vote for a wetsuit and snorkel to explore that shelf 😉 Some lovely finds as usual

[@mareelwood7270]

I love the black half ball. Carpet Ball maybe? The black ball reminded me of what our earth would look like if we were outside of the protective Fermament that covers our flat earth. The little white spots on the ball could be the millions of stars in the black night of the Fermament. Beautiful thought.

Tom, I'm not a Cephalopod, I'm an Octogenarian:) Corpus plumbus locomotus,eh? I remember commenting on that tree when the river was in full flow and somehow it has survived.

[@sianwarwick633]

Again, this was a very nice wander through the river. I see that you are fairly selective, plus all the lead and other metals. That odd object wouldn't have been a brake shoe - too soft, but it's large. I like the comprehensive look at the landscape. I'll post some river photos on my Facebook page so you can see what stage we are at. It is the time of the opening up of the river, and that's always exciting to see the flow reveal itself

There’s a you tube channel named Outdoors Weekly. They use hands free chest harnesses for their go pros. I think one would be perfect fir stream walking with the bucket.

[@iansuehooper7542]

Tom, with rivers and streams such as this, one’s soul quietly nudges one to don the waders and go for a stream walk/lark. You picked a beautiful day and location for this outing. I (Ian) felt for that row of trees precariously perched along the edge of that eroded river bank, a limited future I think. Your stone skimming certainly roused that kingfisher, a great throw.

Thanks Tom, I am always happy to watch one of your videos. Loved the sound of the water and your voice (of course), interesting finds and as far as the bucket and filming, could you clip the camera to the inside of the rim? I hope this finds you well and I look forward to your next upload.

The camera, maybe from a box brownie.My grand dad had one, he worked as as gernalist back in the day..he knew morse code and took loads of photos.This runs in our family, my uncle also keen photographer, my sister and I did it as part of our course in Southampton and my daughter dose it as part of her job.

[@tomburleigh9261]

This one has the ragged remains of a concertina too... which I think rules out a box brownie, the lens is about 30% wider than the one on my Dad's box brownie too. Think that one was my granddad's too, he was a RAF aerial photographer during the war, and a keen travel photographer after.

[@debrabrooks6138]

I have a idea why not make a bucket about only a foot deep with a glass or plexy glass bottom and attach the camera on the inside of the bucket looking down, perhaps use the go-pro there since it's smaller? I wonder how those small security cameras would work, the tiny ones, perhaps using LED lights on the bottom of the bucket as well, attaching the battery on the inside of the bucket. just a few random thoughts. It's good to see you and a friend out and about. :)

You could get one of those cameras that go on your head or chest, and therefor your hands are free. Don't know what make or what they are called..but you get my drift..very interesting as usual.

Have you tried the chest harness, that holds your go pro under your chin on your chest? It most likely would record into the bucket and your hands are mostly held in the position of where the camera is mounted.
