What Treasure did our SECRET WEAPON Uncover in the Woods?!

[@AvalonDreamz]

With this being the election season of insanity in America you ladies have no clue how much I look forward to the peace of your videos. The escape is vital, and I thank you so much.

[@sharongoodson2857]

Oh my goodness, you hit the nail on the head. I’ll be so glad when the election is over. Sharon from NC

[@caronwilliamson951]

I'm in Australia and the hype is on here also ❤ absolutely agree

[@johnsullivan2449]

I feel the same and I'm an Australian 🦘🦘🦘🙃

SOUTH CAROLINA READY TO BE DONE WITH ELECTION ALSO. AMERICA HAS BEEN EMBARRASSED ENOUGH.

[@robinhendrickson511]

[@releasingendorphins232]

I truly don't care what you girls post. You could film yourselves washing dishes, your Tea Time, cleaning your bathroom...anything you do is endearing to me. I have watched you for years now, and I absolutely Love, Respect and Trust You Both. Thanks for your time and interests. You and Fluer and Kate are my very Favorite Mudlarks. Guess it's the Mother/ Daughter thing I crave. Actually it's just the Love and History you all show. Blessings, Barb in Oklahoma.

[@karensillifant8346]

The egg cup with integral mini saucer is from Longpark Pottery in Torquay (there were other Devon potteries producing similar mottoware eg Allervale & Watcombe) & always hand painted. It was very popular back in the day. They also made pieces with place names (popular holiday souvenirs!), and sometimes longer quaint mottos & poems, always hand written sgraffito- style. I love them!

[@FuerzaArmada]

THE FLAPPER WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL made into a jewelry stand, adorning the top.

[@cynthiat6505]

Really miss your creations!!! I know you are so busy recreating your beautiful property. But I love watching you create!

[@trishscobell9920]

Laid up with a very badly broken leg… but you ladies are here to bring a smile to my face and a distraction from the pain. Thank you Alex & Gail! Xx

[@tessaelvan2939]

the spout is a spare teapot spout it would have come with a rubber sleeve to fit over a broken teapot spout I remember it well, Thank you

[@ediefolta9494]

I was thinking that it looked like a little plastic spout that I have to use with wine bottles. It is supposed to aerate the wine more quickly.

[@jamesrawson6659]

Gail & Alex. You raked me in on this one. Been looking forward to another vid. Keep up the good work. As always my best wishes to you both

[@patjohnson9287]

Lovely video, thanks.

[@NITA-s4r]

LOVELY FINDS!! THE POTTERY YOU LEFT BEHIND WITH THE BRAMBLES AND BLACKBERRIES ON IT, WAS MY FAVORITE. I PICTURED FLOWERS INSIDE AND ADORNED ON A TABLE OR DESK. ANYWAYS, I LIKE THE EGG CUP AND THE BLUE BOTTLE. SO PRETTY. THE LADY FLAPPER IS GORGEOUS AND QUAINT. BOTH OF YOU HAVE QUITE THE EYE FOR SPOTTING TREASURES. THANKS AND I HOPE THE CAT IS DOING WELL. STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY AND 🙏 BLESSED ❤❤

[@lynneseaward1315]

That blackberry jug would be beautiful with dried flowers in. I love brambles,not the invasiveness, but the fruit. And they are beautiful to watercolour.

[@giclat1098]

I agree about the blackberry jug! It was too pretty to leave behind. I would have kept it for pens or paint brushes or flowers! I can't ep but wonder how many treasures on the soil surface were raked away and missed. You need a gas powered leaf blower! 💨 I'd love to see you using one!👀😁

[@kayesdigginit1519]

I was thinking that it would make a great vase!

[@munchkinheaven7877]

I would have taken it too, I loved it

[@katherineashley5712]

Thanks! You always bring a smile to my face sweet ladies. Take care Gail and Alex.

[@MadelineRose-ep7fj]

Always love the pottery pieces with florals, berries, birds, scenes. Torquay pottery was my thought on the Scottish thistle cup. Be kind to the toads!😊

[@westcountrymudlarks]

I think your right we find so much of it being 3 miles from torquay

[@susanroller6905]

I'm so glad to be back watching you both find beautiful treasures ! I absolutely love the flapper girl, such a wild and crazy time reminder of the 1920's rebellion of " covered from head to toe " ! Thank you so much for another wonderful adventure, you always make my day better !! Love and hugs 🥰🥰 xx

[@repeat_defender]

TOAD BUM!! That made me so happy, I just love toadies.

[@tonyhartwell7605]

I think it's a spout to repair a tea pot when the original one gets knocked off.

[@mary-chiltonvanhees1201]

Or to attach a better poring spout to a drippy one.

[@YvonneNickel-qk1kd]

agreed

[@deatonusaf]

Thats what i remember too!

[@Jessasaurus]

Apparently that's the same conclusion Si Finds came to and even gave a little demonstration. I thought it was an adaptable pour spout.

[@TriciaBurbobkin]

Yes I also remember one of these with a rubber sleeve, it went on the bottom part, then slipped onto the broken spout. I double checked, and you can buy them but they are all silicone now. I was very excited to see this find in such great condition!

[@alenedrummond4627]

❤ Alex cherish every find, photo, video, talk and adventures with your Momma. I miss mine so much.

[@eleanorlaurent2303]

I'm finally remembering to tell you this... I LOVE playing "Where's Dollie" during your roundup!

[@kennethboydsr3966]

That lady looks just like the ones you see in the movies from back in the roaring 20s I like the way that people used to look then thanks for sharing your adventures with us❤😊

[@cherylburkitt9722]

Lovely finds.. The little berry is cute I liked the bramble jug Gorgeous lady and beautiful bottles Vegemite fan here as I'm an Aussie ❤😊 Thankyou for a delightful watching 🎉

[@zeenatbaer138]

Hi .. I have an egg cup almost the same as that though mine has a boat design with Looe written on it.. and the motto is "Theres a time for all things" The stamp on the bottom of mine says Watcombe Torquay, Royal England ... I think yours is earlier and the words on the bottom, well the second one is definitely Torquay. I see from other comments it's a particular type of souvenir pottery ... interesting to know. Shame, I saw a whole tea set of it in a charity shop recently.. but didn't buy it 😢 tbh I couldn't justify it, though I absolutely loved it ... thanks for all the great finds and info. The pepper pot theme ! .. you couldn't make it up 😂

[@cynthiawilliams3873]

Enjoyed this video. That jar you found with the black shiny lid could you clean it up and paint it with clear glue inside and outside so it would stay together to save that part of history? The jar and lid were so unique.

[@bkitteh6295]

I was horrified that Alex didn't take the jar, but then I don't have to carry everything home, wash it, and then have to find a place for it. Still, grrrrr 😾

[@aparnabalasubramanian9948]

So cool how you guys managed to find these gems under the leaves! Awesome video as always ladies :)

[@deedorothypapineau6920]

Another great video from Gail and Alex, the Northern Mudlarks…. drum roll…. I love your shots at odd angles through the ferns and flowers and the music you back it up with.

[@LisaCates-j8i]

I agree my favorite youtubers,s❤❤❤❤

[@LisaCates-j8i]

Maybe the spout is for maplesyrup?in the tree?

[@deedorothypapineau6920]

@@LisaCates-j8i no. The maple spouts are metal and are hammered into the bark of the tree to get the syrup.

[@patriceschweitzer8326]

I did indeed enjoy your mud larking today. Catch you next time! 😊

[@Carolbearce]

The flapper doll is so beautiful.

[@riftknapper]

Hellooo, I have a tiny Marmite sample bottle (not a screw top) that my dad found years ago in an old dump in Kimberley, South Africa. It seems that the people in Kimberley during Edwardian times lived off of Marmite, Bovril, Holbrooks sauces and Eno's - the bulk of the bottle finds are those. Love your adventures, thank you for sharing.

[@SongOfSongsChapterTwoVerseFour]

I loved this video, Gail and Alex. Not only because your returned zeal for digging is apparent, but also because I love the narration and discourse you both provide us. I love your endearing personalities. You are preserving bits of history forever! ❤

[@bonnerdebbie]

Thanks Ladies lovely video full of lovely finds!

[@izabelabhering7041]

You do a wonderful job displaying your finds, whether showcasing them together or separately you bring these objects back to life no matter their state. Best wishes💐💐

My Granny’s maiden name was McEwan. I remember very well when Gail made the lid for the salt shaker. I was so impressed with her skill. Great finds ladies. Thanks.

[@madeleinegombert661]

That video Gail mentioned from years ago, in which she fabricated a new top to a salt shaker you found on your property, was one of my all time favorites!

[@susancousins8766]

Plenty of gems in the woods and you found the better of them. I love the video, I definitely like the half doll she is very unique. You don’t see them every day. Have a fantastic week ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

[@sea_my_finds3876]

Another great video ladies!! I think your cone shaped brass is probably a candle snuffer!

[@sharongoodson2857]

A very awesome mudlark. You found some neat items. Especially the half lady, salt shakers and the flower pot. I’m obsessed with any flower pot or vessel that can be used as a flower pot. Heck, I love everything you find. I get so excited when you find all this neat stuff. I watch you guys, saying to my self all through the video pick it up, oh please take that. And you usually do. Also the word scrummaging is a term used in American football. Absolutely love watching you two beautiful ladies. I would love to live in Scotland, England or the Channel Islands. Can’t wait until your next adventure. Love you guys ♥️♥️♥️ 😊

[@rosegilliland1845]

[@heidiavera5071]

I was watching your video with my mom showing it off to her because I love ❤️ the channel your videos are smashing!

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

Your brass (?) cone looks like a tip used for icing. Wilton make one that looks very similar. They call it the “Number 1 - Round” decorating tip. Very exciting and so evocative to find one. Oh the stories that it could tell us of the cakes it decorated and the individuals that it would have celebrated. Fantastic. P.s legend has it that when Vegemite was first made people were still incredibly loyal to marmite. So from 1928 to 1935 the manufacturer changed the name of Vegemite to Par-will as a play on the original Mar-mite 🤣 The advertising slogans were something like - If Ma might, Pa will. 🤣 lol By 1935 the new product had captured the Australian market and the name was changed back to Vegemite. When I was growing up in Australia I remember that a school friend had something called Promite that was similar to Vegemite but slightly different. That then became the debate in the playground. What was your favourite? Promite or Vegemite?

[@tarrasams7423]

Hello 👋🏾 from New York USA, you guys found some amazing finds. My favorite find was the porcelain figurine. Thank you for bringing me along with you. I can't wait to see where you go and what you find next 😊

[@ellyntallon2255]

😊 the white lil pour spout reminds me of my juicer only mine is plastic with a serated bottom for squishing into an orange and roll n squeeze the fruit the juice would run out the spout 😊

[@jandavis1523]

Hello good ladies, the small bottle with concave corners was most likely a condiment bottle which held olives or capers. Keep raking in these wonderful finds! ❤

Oh my, I wanted to see the large heavy lid cleaned up. Had fun.

[@fernbrisot325]

I was force-fed Vegemite as a child growing up in Australia in the 60s. As the jingle went... "It puts a rose in every cheek" and was considered a health food, so my mother was going to make us eat it. My brother loved it, but to this day, I cannot stand Vegemite. Now that I think back, I never saw my Scottish mum eat it. But she would have grown up with Marmite. The half doll is one of the sweetest finds I have seen. Thank you for sharing.

[@carolreynolds3650]

Just love you ladies, really enjoy all your treasure hunting!! I have a LARGE collection of half dolls, so was excited when you found yours. The smaller one you showed, could also be a powder puff handle, they are so precious, can't wait to see how, & to what you attach yours to. All interesting finds to be sure, great fun to be there with you!! Until next time.

[@alicewall5363]

"Should I take it?" The answer is always YES! :)

[@carolekinsey7835]

Brilliant finds this week ladies. That horse stirrup you founf was a boot scraper i think. It would have probably have had two metal spikes that stuck in the ground. So you could scrape mud off your boots. I loved the salt/pepper pot container. That was really quite pretty. I couldn't believe it when Alex found a lid. I actually said to myself...bet that'll fit the pot Gail just found. And hay ho, it did. 😊 Oh and then that beautiful 20's figure with the flapper outfit. Head band and beads... I do hope you fix her up and repair her. She's so lovely. I'd love to see you fix her. I dont know what the spout was used for, but i do like the idea of it being used for pouring oil from a bottle. One that could be removed and replaced by a lid,or cork, when not in use. Such an interesting lark. Thanks ladies. Enjoyed that. 😊Xx

[@PeggyReid-l1g]

Hello Gail, hello Alex. When I hear your theme song I know I'm in for a real treat. Loved the blackberry marbly bead??

In my area of archaeology we use rakes a lot! We use the sturdy metal ones that construction sites use. They’re great for quickly going through large quantities of displaced dirt (with no in tact provenience). Aka exactly what you guys are doing 😁

[@katesheppard7849]

Hi ladies, the egg cup looks like Torquay Motto ware. Made by a group of potteries in Soth Devon. They used the red terracotta clay local to the area and decorated the pottery with steam slip and wax resist mottos and sayings. It's very collectable and has inspired modern potters such as Emma Bridgewater. The brass cone could be a candle snuffer... love your videos a nd look forward to my weekend s

[@Julianne955]

Gail, Sarah and Mick, Manchester Mudlarks, just found a pot that would fit the lid you just found in their video yesterday. How weird is that? It would be truly wild to match those two finds together being they're many miles apart. Have a wonderful week NM family! Oh and Torquay ware egg cup, which is my favorite find! Learned that from the Westcountry Mudlarks. Yes, I may be watching too many mudlarks, lol.
