While I was in Michigan visiting family, I got my daughter hooked on mudlark videos including yours. It didnât take a lot cuz sheâs a history/archeology buff like her mom. I used to have a company that tore down old barns that were falling down and becoming a safety hazard. Unless a barn is used and maintained, they deteriorate quickly. Putting hay in them helps keep them from being blown down by strong winds. These barns were usually well over 100 yrs old. My favorite part was going through and finding antiques and old oil cans, bottles and enameled signs that were often put in these structures and forgotten. I truly understand and appreciate your enthusiasm for finding old and unique items. The wood we salvaged from the structures was repurposed or used to restore other barns from the same era. Itâs fun watching all yâall
My husband used to clean up old barn boards to make furniture.
Hello there, sounds like you found some awesome treasures. I can also just imagine the patina on the wood from those barns, so great that it had another life. We often find unusual pieces of ships timber from the many shipwrecks we find on the foreshore that would also look amazing to be repurposed. Take care and thank you for your support. đđ
Hope you exposed them to the Northern Mudlarks, Tom Burleigh, Letâs Go and Manchester Mudlarks!!!!???
Awesome
@@NinfaCarpentergeorgia198 of course!! So finds, and others plus I showed them whoâs on instagram
My favorite time of the week..Mudpie Wednesday !
What a lot of pretty bottles, so many to choose from. I really liked the square tablespoons bottle that must still be in the wash. Plus the ornate glass bottle stopper was very unique and pretty. What a lot of work and fun for lovely treasures. thanks for letting me tag along!
Oiioii Mudpies! What an amazing day in the dirt. Apart from the nettles, it looked like you enjoyed every minute of it. You found so many great things. I'm usually all about the pottery but I have two favorites this week that aren't pots. I love the little brown wonky bottle and the crystal blue bottle stopper. What a little beauty that stopper is. It sparkles like a jewel. I think you should go back there often! Next week should be fun with Kate and Fleur. Their excitement over small finds is contagious.LOL Take care and I'll see you next time. Love you guys!
Love the bottle dig, so fun to watch. Hard to choose a favorite, I do lean towards the volcanite stoppers
My favorite find is this channel! Hey Josie has guns!!! I love watching father and daughter together so upbeat and enthusiastic. Your videos make my day. I want a video about the two of you like background, show mama muddied and I am intrigued by Josie's body art. Thanks for another great video.
I know this goes without saying Josie, take care of yourself. Blessings.
Thank you and you too đ
Love your energy and daughter/father connection. Very nice to see you in dirt rather than mud and barnacles:) Any âMudpieâ t shirts coming? Josie, are you doing any new races? Competitions?
Hello Joanne, thanks for your lovely feedback. T-shirts dropping in 2 weeks time. Hopefully another comp in July. Take care đđx
Hello đdear, how are you doing?
Generally in an area where there are nettles, you will find Plantain plants. Pick the leaves, crush and wipe the juice on the nettle stings. It eliminates the stinging. I have used it myself, and it works! Old family folk remedy here in the U.S.
Have you thought of using a table mounted orbital sander to smooth the bottle edges, or sanding disks mounted on a rotating faceplate?
Great tip, I think we lost the plot a bit with all the bottles and forgot about dock leaf ointment! A bit tricky using an orbital sander as you need to keep the glass cool to avoid scarring and pitting so we use lots of water. Maybe there is a way of making this work?Take care đ
@@Mudpies If you used a drill motor with a long extension shaft, with the drill away and protected, I think you could feed a light stream of water against the revolving sanding disk and you would be OK. Also thinking of the possibility of using a cutting fluid like they use on lathes known as " Milk" here. or possibly a very light oil like they use in rock cutting. Possibly automatic transmission fluid? The fluid or oil can be filtered and reused many, many times.
Just some thoughts.
@@f.k.burnham8491 mmm nice idea you have got me thinking! I did wonder about using one of those circulating knife/tool sharpeners too as they use continuous water to cool. đ
@@Mudpies The problem I think you would find is that they generally have limited grit grades. I think just about any flat metal plate circular sanding device you can stick various sanding grit pads on should work. The sticky back sanding disks pads are fairly reasonable here.
You don't want the backing plate for the sanding disk to be flexible.
AHA! The backing plate could be the platter from an old turntable. Just epoxy paint the platter to prevent rust or corroding and find a collar or motor shaft to fit the center hole! Add a variable speed motor or drill to power it and Viola!
That was awesome fun! I LOVE that bottle stop. Thanks for taking us along â€ïž
I LOVE Kit & Caboodlers!!!! So happy you're going to meet up with them đ! You both have much in common, genuinely kind to your Subscribers and honest in your excitement of your epic finds! Love †to you all! I liked too, how you went bottle digging rather than a mud excursion this week...it was a nice change!
P.S. I loved ALL the finds, but esp that stopper and white stoneware bottle!
Hello there! You won't be disappointed with our meeting up with Kate and Fleur. It's been a year since we last saw them. Take care đ
@@Mudpies I know I won't be disappointed đ. You both are favorites of mine đđ!
Yay! Bottle digging in style, wow. Love that vintage Land Rover.
You two are the perfect daddy/daughter vibe. I love you both. Take care of your gorgeous selves đ„°
Awh thank you so much angie!!â€ïž
A fun lark. I really liked the melted Valentine's bottle. The shape reminded me of a human heart.
Another lovely day my mudpies I love the brown pottery â€ïž
You are my tribe making something from nothing but our dreams. Good morning âïž
đthank you!
The bottle dump is really exciting, definitely need to dig deeper. Whole GB's await !
Love them all, especially when they are displayed together. If I have to choose, I like the glass bottle stopper.
Yay! A bottle dump!!! đđ»đđ»đđ»đđ»đđ»
Great finds again , Lovely as can be .Nice to be out with friends and Lovely weather too .
Yeah !!! I do like the little bottles and the slightly burned one was great !
Have a good weekend , and look forward to next adventure .
All the table spoons I've seen were wider and more rectangle shaped. The square one is unusual. And I watch almost every mudlark and bottle digging video out. Also liked the blueish glass stopper! I agree its a stunner. I have to give a big shout out to anyone that digs in tips and dumps for bottles. Its alot of work. I also subscribed the Muddy Duckers. A new crew to watch.
That was brilliant and great to meet Muddy Duckers. Nice landy. Looking forward to next week with the Kit and Caboodlers. You and they are my favourite mudlarkers.
The camera loves josie. Truly a beautiful young women and her personality shines.
My favorite would be the small brown melted bottle. Charming and wonky.
Lots of non squelchy fun today! The stoneware is always my favourite especially if it has writing! The Victorian wording is so interesting! Oi..oi from Oz! đâ€ïž
Totally agree!
I love the wonky bottles! Always end up taking them home!
I love that little wonky brown bottle. Itâs adorable!
Like a deflated glass balloon đ
That was fun and different. I did not envy you having to deal with those nettles though. I'm glad you were able to find some good stuff. My favorite is the beautiful ice blue bottle stopper. Thanks for taking us along on your latest adventure. :-)
I absolutely loved this episode of digging for bottles! Please add this type of content to your amazing channel. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will do!đ
OMG you could just keep diggin there forever !
I really enjoyed the bottle digging, I get anxious when you are out in the mud.
This was a special fun day with lots of goodies. Nice that you have admitted the shoulder pain. Lets us know the grind đȘđȘđȘ it takes to find anything in the dirt. Stoneware is beautiful. Favorite is the melted meat bottle. Blessings
Hello đ from New York USA I absolutely loved the Bottle Digging you guy's found Amazing finds my Favorite was the Melted Amber Bottle the Blue Glass Bead and the Big white Stoneware Thank you for bringing me along with you guy's I can't wait to see what you guy's find next đ đ
The penny lick was AMAZING xx what a find
My favorite is your melty bottle, Josie!
Hi, super sunny day down among the nettles, ha ha. So different to see you both as landlubbers enthusiastically digging for treasures instead of slipping and sliding on the mudflats. Lovely selection, can't choose a favorite tho'.
Good to meet Mark and Donna too. Take care xx
Glad you enjoyed it
The stoppers are the winners of today's episode, well doe guys, have rest now after all that digging.
Cheers đđ
Great day,wonderful bottles.Ty for the new intros.
Canât wait. Thank youâ€ïž
Oioiii đ
The stopper was lovely but I really liked the squishy bottle!!! Another great adventure!!! :-)
Looking at it now it's a bit like a deflated brown balloon! We love it, take care đ
AH-MAZING dig!!! My fave is the melty meat juice bottle! It'll never awesome to see what else you'll find at the bottle dump next time. As always great to see the beauty JaffaâŁïž
This was enjoyable, something different. Nice finds. đ„°đđșđž
Great adventure in the bottle dump. I had a thought regarding upcycling some of the broken cod bottles, and any other bottles that narrow towards the top; make some "bud vases too". Bud vases take many shapes, but they all narrow at the top. Extends possibilities for "cut downs" and maybe would save more of the designs and words on the bottles.
This was a wonderful adventure!
I love old bottles! Do all you want!
Some lovely bits well done looked like u had fun at the dump
loved your new âdigsâ. You got to use different parts of your bodies, besides slogging through the heavy mud wearing upon your legs. The glass stopper was amazing.
Loved the melted little brown bottle. Love a bottle dump.xx
It's so good!đ
We might need to add ânettle avoidanceâ and âspeed hole diggingâ to the mud lark games!!! Lol. Glad you had a potato fork, a fav of bottle diggers world wide.
đ I tell you next time we're bringing some shears to tackle those nettles! Take care đ
That was such a sunny episode in so many ways. Meat juice for me and bottle stopper for Mandy. Well dug u2. See you next week. Cheers Dazza. đđ
You too!!đ
Awesome land rover, and finds! I actually like the meat juice wonky bottle!đ Pretty loaded bottle dump! Thanks for sharing!
Oi-bloody-oi!!!!! đ đ€Ł đ đč You slay me Josie!!!!! What a crack-up!!!! (That's being funny in U.S. slang). I would love to see Willy from "Dirty Secrets of Scotland" repair that "Pure Butter" display dish!!! He would definitely have his hands full on that one!!!! Oi-oi Squelch Squad!!!!! I LOVED the bottle dig, but it needs to be longer!!!! I know I'm probably asking alot, what with all the editing and stuff, so do what you can do!!! Brilliant stuff, brilliant finds!!!! I like the wonky Valentines.
You both look so happy and relaxed, not being bundled up in several layers of gear. :D Of course, the nettles kindof make short sleeves a bit hazardous. :o Sorry your glasses got beat up, Andy. Hopefully they are reparable. :) I really like the 2 stoneware items right at the beginning that Andy found just lying on the top. I can hardly wait for next week's video with Kit and Caboodlers! That WILL be epic. :) :) See you then.
Much more effort put in then the last bottle dig y'all did. Most of your avid bottle diggers throw off busted or unembossed bottles as they search for whole examples. a spot like that you could harvest many of their tailings for cutdowns & what nots. Much more work to dig than to scan for sure. Fun dig, ty for taking us along
Cheers Richard, there were so many bottles and other goodies here !! Never seen so many broken codd bottles, all snapped at their necks for the marbles. Take care đđ
Loved the ice blue bottle stopper â€ïžâ€ïž
Stinging nettles have a perfect antidote plant that grows near by. Dockweed or jewelweed juice applied to the area will neutralize the sting.
Bottle dump was interesting! And obviously a lot more accessible in inclement weather (windy or gnarly) or winter or when you're not up for the muddy slog.
Little melted is probably my fav.
Hello Roger, yes we thought it was good to have options and it was nice to meet some fellow mudlarks. Take care đ
I just love you guys. Such personality. Your dad is so funny. I hated it anyway⊠I laughed out loud!
Just love the collaborations with others. It's a bit different than norm. My favorites are the light blue vulcanite stopper and the melty meat juice bottle as well as all the small bottles. Very excited about next weeks adventure.
What a blessing to share what you love to do with your father/daughter! Love watching your videos!! Greetings đżđŠđżđŠđżđŠ
Thanks Karin, after a busy week so look forward to our time together, bantering, having adventures and unearthing historyđ
Loved the bottle dumb, what a great colab love the mini bottles, Luv from UK đŹđ§
Oh! So jealous! I would love to find a dump to dig! Thanks so much for sharing so I can enjoy it watching you two!!!!!
Love bottle dumps thank you,đâ€ïž
Look forward to seeing your finds wherever you go
Glad you found the dirt not the mud this time. It's a delight to watch you, both, but not to see you struggle with the mud. Josie are you a full time artist? What work does Dad do? We would love to meet your Mom!
Definitely enjoyed the bottle digging! Cheers, Paige
Glad you enjoyed it
Fantastic dig, I really like all the embossed codds for cut downs, and the glass stopper is heart-stopping gorgeous! I hope you get to go back and find those printed stonewares too...
Thanks Nicole, really interested to find a printed ointment stoneware. Would be a lovely bit of social history đ
Great finds as always I like the cut downs they are my favourite this week thanks for sharing â€ïž
Very cool bottle dig.Great looking off-road Landrover. Pretty good finds. You guys should try magnet fishing that would be cool also.
Today it is here in the Netherlands remembrance day and tomorrow we celebrate our freedom. So that Jeep is almost spot on. You did great with the finds. Love the butter dish. Till next week.
Thank you and thank you also for sharing that it is remembrance day in the Netherlands. Particularly important with all the awful things happening in the world at the moment. Take care đx
I think bottle digging is very cool to watch also. You found some great items. Love the wonky juice bottle.
Thanks for watching!
I'm going with the beautiful stopper ! You two have a hound dog talent for finding hidden treasures !!!
Fingers crossed Kevinđ
OiiOiii Mudpies - something a bit different but a great adventure and treasurefest - really enjoyed it! You were like a pair of burrowing badgers in that bottle dump!!
Thanks đđ
Hi Josie & Andy You guys kinda changed it up a bit. Looks like you had a blast!!! Great bottle dump!! You guys found so much on the surface, it was amazing. Next time maybe you'll get a chance to do some serious digging and pull out some Belters. Looking forward to Kit & Caboodle next week.
congratulations on all your fabulous finds...so much more awaits! Bravo mudpies. well done! my favorite find was the melty meat juice bottle. merci beaucoup!
Another great video guys. A little different. I love the bottle dumps. The little ice blue stopper was my favourite this week. Keep up the good work.đ
I loved all the finds but I have to admit to really liking wonky melted bottles. The new shapes that are made in the fire really interest me, especially knowing that there will never be another bottle the same. Thanks for your channel.
I know there is something very charming about them. Thank you for your lovely feedback đ
The embossed glass stopper was one of the better finds, loved the cut downs, great work. Sue and Ian, Australia
It's a beauty, thanks Sue and Ian đ
That was different, a bottle dump dig. Awesome findâs guys well done, totally great video. Loved the car đđ. Take care and thank you for sharing, see you next week đđđ
What a beautiful day! Absolutely love your videos and you both great!! Keep up the smashing job!â€
Thanks Caitlin, much appreciated đx
Loved the bottle digging!
The âbad legsâ fragment was from a Hollowayâs Ointment jar. Hope you find a whole one next time out!
Dream find đ
welcome to mark and donna I have subscribed to their channel looking forward to this xxxxxxxx
Love that huge pure butter display base!
Itâs so cool! Wish it was complete
Glad you had a good time, I know the dump well. The Lamploughs stopper would almost certainly have been from their Effervescing Pyretic Saline bottle (I have one minus stopper!). A well known quack cure of the time.
What a belter of a find @ 17:50
Awesome bottle dig! You found some really good ones. Thanks for always keeping us entertained and sharing history with us.
Cheers Greg đ
The stoneware and blue stopper my favorites! Canât wait to see you with Kit and Caboodlers I will check out your friends muddy Duckers channel! đđWVđșđž
Awesome! Thank you!
Hello Josie and Andy,
Thank you for introducing us to the Muddy Duckers. Going to check out their CZcams in a bit. (Looking forward to next week and the video with Kit and Caboodler)
There was the comments about looking forward to being back in the mud as well as barnacle-less bottles; and I was wondering if digging was more or less satisfying?
Loved the video. The melted meat juice bott is my favorite. đ«
Thank you again as always and good luck on the next adventure! -JT
Our pleasure JT. Next weeks Kit and Caboodle adventure will not disappoint ! We both like being out on the vast mudflats but it's also so peaceful being in the woods. Personally i do not miss cleaning off all the smelly mud and barnacles but the sense of isolation the mudflats gives you is quite amazing. Take care đđ
@@Mudpies - Your description reminds me of when I first moved to Los Angeles and went to Mannâs Chinese Theatre. I spent the whole movie in the downstairs bathroom because the sea of people gave me a panic attack. Luckily the bathroom was quite nice.
Hi squad leaders! Loved the episode. I really want to go on a bottle dig one of these days. I did a bit as a child and enjoyed it. Maybe my sister and I will able visit your neck of the woods in the future.
Bye for nowđ Heather
Watertown, Connecticut USA
Great Video with bright sunny weather. Only beauties in this dumpster congrats. I love them all and the cut downs. My favorite is the little brown melkted bottle it looks funny and a little bit sad. Cat looks only beautiful.đ
Thanks so much!
Lots of hard work today. Lovely finds. Eat a hardy meal to replace all those burned calories lol. See you next week.
Always a great day when a new video comes from you!!
Also my youngest son Owen says to say he loves you (heâs 7)
Oioi Sean and Owen!! đ
Thanks for watching, more bottle digging next week! You got any adventures planned?
@@Mudpies hopefully yes!
It had to have been great to do your hike to the treats without mud pats!
You four were such a fun combination. đ
Thanks Kerri, yes it was a nice change we didn't even have to wear our Welly boots!
Aw l like all the finds! Andy you really should get some flourescent pink glasses so you will be able to keep track of them. đđđ
I used to have them around my neck on a cord, i will be going back to that method! No more broken specsđđ
Really excited to see what you find at the dump!
Yasssssss
You guys are wicked funny! I donât quite understand it, are these dumps? No offense but being American our dumps are off limit.
Just love you mudlarkers or muddies. I could listen to yâall every day and twice on Sunday, lol.
It looks like a bit of work but fun.
I wish you much success with your channel.
đ€
Thanks so much Jacque. Yes these are sites from Victorian times where solid household items such as bottles, cinders, stoneware and other odds and ends have been dumped by the local council. They have then become very overgrown but the history is preserved within them. Take care đđ
I almost didn't recognize you without a few layers of mud and your flipflop mud skates! đ€Ł Fun bottle dig - amazing, the things you can find - but one generation's junk is another generation's archaeological and hunter treasures!
Absolutely Stephanie đ
i like the beef juice bottle and the little bowell/container even without lids but i do like them better with a lid!
Loved it and love, love Wednesdays so I can watch your adventures. Thanks for all the smiles.
Yay! Thank you!
