I swear, Alex has the best eyesight in the history of mankind!!!! She can spot the tiniest things!!!
Surely the slate with its owners name on top deserves a spot in the window of wonders. I enjoyed the haunting melody in this episode and the pottery clinging to the bank to be heard and noticed before its demise. Nice work ladies, as usual!
You guys deserve the best!! Mother and daughter!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I really miss these older shows. Because I really enjoyed looking at the ground and seeing you actually find some thing and I think I'm going through withdrawals so I had to watch an older show lol.
A very atmospheric lark with the rain sounds, the clinking pottery and the beautiful music..thank you for sharing your treasures with us while getting soaked!! I love the little stoneware bottles when you find them.
Thank you - glad you enjoyed it xx
Love the pottery tinking on the stone and the fact that you noticed it!!
As soon as you pulled him from the mud I thought “switch man” was some sort of little lead figure of a person! Can’t wait to see what you do with him!❤Also, for the window of wonders I think the brightly colored piece of glassware that Gail found would be lovely in the sunlight.❤~TN Nana
I’ve never hit the watch button so quickly!! Love you ladies!!❤❤❤
Love you too! xx
Alex, I love the fact that you asked for a full sized bead after finding the 3 wee seed beads, and then you got a beauty! And Gail, that lovely bit of chain you found looks like a medieval woman's chain belt...totally random thought, but that's what it looks like to me...a wonderful lark with the two of you, as always, thank you!
What a wonderful day, thank you for the ride along.😊
Hi Gail and Alex....I really love the bead it is so beautiful. Yes Detol as been around since forever and it as its own specific smell wonderful that you found a vintage bottle of detol. And you have a great collection of Cod marbles.
I chuckle when I see a dog snout poking out through a knot hole in a wooden fence. 10:40 , I'm glad you kept the snout.
I really love the history lessons that you give about the items
The bits of history you stick in when editing are tons of fun. It's amazing and frustrating (not in a bad way,) when you're reaching for a find and I see something totally different and can't.
Great lot of finds, the brass chain you found is similar to one we used to make in a brass foundry l used to work at, it is for hanging large pictures from rails, or large ornamental lamps from ceilings, we used to make it in different sizes, the links are usually split at one end for ease of assembly / shortening / lengthening and shaped to an internal point with the links concave inside so they keep the split links closed
I'm fascinated by the assorted marbles you've found over the course of time which when viewed enmasse, never fails to impress!
Great mudlarking adventure. Always a treat with many historic treasures!
I was feeling cold on your behalf watching you both in the rain. Brrrr! I loved the little brass man that Gail found. Can't wait to see what you do with him. And also the slate with the name engraved. Such a lovely piece of personal history.
Thanks Gail and Alex for another very enjoyable lark. For the window of wonders I vote for beautiful multi color bead or the Huge glass stopper. Thanks so much!
Thank you! xx
I love all the lovelies you find in the nooks and crannies.
Love the winter sun shining on your treasure
So many nice finds , This is such a great time for me to enjoy and relax, love them so much . Thank you Alex and Gail. 🤗
Such an amazing amount of awesome finds, considering the narrow amount of shoreline. Love the Venetian bead and the odd chain❤
Love the dark codd marble!! The large bottle stop is lovely!
You both make a wonderful team .It is a pleasure watching you find your treasures and learning the history behind many of them is interesting and informative.
Thank you for your videos.
You big stopper is very impressive and would be my pick for the window❤️
Thank you - glad you enjoyed it! xx
Hi, such tiny treasures, thanks to your eagle eyes. Did your chain clean up OK Alex and Gail I would love someone to identify that rod thing with the spoon type end!! Looking forward to seeing your creative channel, have a good week. Xxx
I was thinking it might be one of those wall mounted swing arm drapery swag holders.
@@nickandlaurihyde I'm not sure what a drapery/swaģ arm is, would it have been used in a window? It sounds
plausible though. It's intriguing to see these parts of history that are a puzzle, thanks Gail 😅
Please don’t let the meanness of others take away your joy and exuberance that most people love.
Great finds! Love that you share the journey with us ... they're always so heartfelt ... I guess its bc of the mother/daughter thingy! 💜✨💜✨💜
Oh the brass chain came up a treat....shiny and snazzy👍
I love how the two of you seek out those tiny forgotten objects from the past.Quite charming really.The both of you are very lovely ladies.Enjoyed the video very much.Harry Bond ,Waterloo, Iowa U.S.A.
You should set the small broken dolls on pedestal to make them look like small broken greek or roman statuary. They would look great on a book shelf.
Awww..I could watch you for hrs...I loved the minted bottle..the stripey glass piece and coloured bead..very nice watch.. thankyou
I would have kept that ceramic thing with the holes - fantastic for displaying things. My guess is a drainage cover. I would use it for flowers. Loved this video. Great stuff- once again! That water looked cooold.
I would have kept it too (Gail) xx
I would have kept it too.
Love the idea of a dogs snout as a pendant! Also thought the small doll torso could be cool as one too..maybe with a painted outfit with silver accents…
I love Bonky wottles.
I love them,and am constantly horrified at the fact that Parker’s in your country don’t take them!
Please take them,I will purchase any that you find!
The whiteheart bead.
Lovely.
I think they are formally referred to as Cornaline D’Aleppo beads,cherished in the trade bead world by native Americans.
Interesting story:
Louis and Clark,set out for the unexplored west.
They brought chestfulls of beads,in anticipation of first contact with unknown tribes.
Most were the whiteheart variety(I own 2,probably from this very expedition),and pure white,and a relatively small amount of light blues,padres,and whatnot.
It turned out,that the native people of the Great Plains,they were not particularly interested in the red or white beads!
NO!
They cherished the light blue beads,sky beads,the color of the big sky!
They went on to be named chiefs beads,because of their rarity,only the head honchos would posess them.
I have a strand of cod marble sized sky beads from mid 19th century,they literally give a sensation from head to foot,when you place them around your neck.
Some super interesting and beautiful finds! Thanks So Much for sharing your happy adventures! So many great treasures it’s hard to have favorites. Your music selections are always Lovely! Many Blessings! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
I *love* the slate and slate pencil necklaces. They are so simple yet beautiful, and the history and the story behind them - wow!
We just had the greatest giggle thanks to you Gail. My husband heard you say mail bag seal, and he asked " how does see know it it a boy?" I said the protruding peices..that what he gets for ease dropping..thank you for a good chuckle
haha x
Bent fork trowel?
It s so relaxing to just listen to you talk and look at the things you find. I like seeing the things all cleaned up on between. It's like listening to people around you talking without having to interact with them.
So de-stressing to watch you both lark with the rain and water sounds. And all kinds of beautiful little treasures, i would lose my mind there and never want to leave lol! Such a great spot. Thank you for sharing my lovelies xx Teresa 🇦🇺❤
That multi coloured bead is special
Thanks for all your wonderful videos this year! Maybe you can make a little diorama with all the little pudding dolls you find. Like paint them and make a cute little matchbox scene using some other bits you find.
Nice little TV appearance this morning 🤩👍🏻
Another wonderful lark,I absolutely love how you made the slate with the name,into a beautiful necklace Alex❤ so many lovely finds.
I would love too see more bead and tiny potion jar videos!!! I can watch that one on repeat hehe love you girls!!!! Never stop
The chain would make a great pair of earrings
I love hearing the gulls in the background.
It always cracks me up when you two speak in unison, because the pitch and tone is almost identical. Mother & Daughter, indeed!
The slate is so special x wonderful x
Oh good, a leg! Love this program.
Love the slate necklace!
Thank you so much! xx
... bonky wottle collection! 👍👌👏😁😁😁 At last! Thank you Misses Alex. You cannot imagine how much I missed screwed words/names, especially stopple Bopper, modd carble etc..
hehe xx
@@NorthernMudlarks
Thanks for replying and especially for another heart for my commenting. I totally appreciate both very much.
I was slowly drifting away to the dream coast, as the notification signal kind of reanimated me.
Have a good night sleep.
Sincerely yours.
The practice of reversing initial letters in consecutive words is called *spoonerism.*
I don’t find many stoppers where I live. Once at a bottle show I saw a lady with a bowlful of them and exclaimed “you have stopple boppers!” and got a confused look. 😂
How wonderful you found a slate with a name on it,to find something in history with a name,that's why I dig finding something so special ,lost in time found again to be made into something special. Love yalls videos and all the upcycles especially the necklaces, thanks for the videos keep them coming ,Happy Holidays to you both.
Oh my! I was laughing because you two found so many cod marbles today. And so many beads. How unusual . Usually you find a big variety of things but so many marbles and beads. Love it and absolutely love your Chanel and you two are such classy ladies.
The large stopper in the window of wonders ❤
Very much enjoyed the lark this week. I always find the manner in which you display your finds so beautiful. Take care!
Is the L shaped thing a piano pedal? Just a fun guess. Thanks for braving the elements for us!
Thanks for another wonderful video
Always lovely to see you ladies out on a lark, even if it is in the rain. You found some wonderful items on this outing. I hope you have an amazing Christmas!
I've just discovered your channel this week, so I was very excited to see a new video pop up in my notifications! Have a bit of engagement to help with the algorithm. Really enjoying the content, and Alex is adorable. Oh, my vote goes to the gigantic glass stopper.
Just discovered you two very inspiring, enthusiastic and adventurous young ladies. Thanks for allowing us along and edifying us on treasures both in hand and historical!
As a child & even as an adult...I've always imagined finding treasure.
I nominate "switch man" for the window, and the very dark codd marble.
The Bedford slate is precious!
I enjoy your videos so much. I have even got my 11 yr old granddaughter watching them. She loves seeing all of the beautiful and wonderful things that you both find. Maybe even more than I do. She loves going to the beach here in Florida USA to dig in the sand and Gulf of Mexico to find Shells, sharks teeth, barnacles, coral pieces, Sand dollars and and other treasures she can find.
Have a brilliant Christmas everyone 🎅❄
Would it be possible to have the CC (closed captioning) available again on your videos? I often have a bit of a problem understanding your beautiful accents 😊 thank you!
Hi de hi you two. Pleased to see you and the great British history carnt beat it..I 🥰🥶🥶
Yay! glad you enjoyed it! xx
Great treasures. I especially like the dark colored cod marble, red button, and beautiful glass bottle stopper! Good health in the New Year ladies!
Love you guys so much!!!
Aw, we love you too! xx
@@NorthernMudlarks Aw that's made my day!! 😊👍
Love the view of the window of wonders, but barbie's barbarian skull helmet startled me at first! I'm a big fan of the beads Alex found, the venetian pressed glass and the white heart.
For a very small area to lark you did so well. Great finds, always love watching you both. Have a great night.💗💗💗💗💗
Thanks Ladies 🤠💕, please keep making these wonderful videos , thanks again 😊, God 🙏 bless you both ❤️❤️❤️❤️😻
Alex's eyesight and identification of random items is so keen, I think she could be hired as a crime scene detective. ( Not that she'd want to do that.) I could NOT believe she spotted the wonky piece of strewn metal that turned out to be like a decorative safety pin that had a silver hallmark ! She and Gail both have such trained eyes after all these years.
For the window, I vote for the huge oval glass stopper. Thanks for the video ladies.
i'm listening to our Oregon rain while enjoying your rainy lark by the river. thanx for taking us along.
Loved hearing my maiden name being read on that slate. My family originally came from England and that slate may have been belonging to a distant relative.
My full name Denise Bedford Peters
You have the most WONDERFUL CHANNEL!
Thank you so much! xx
Herbert Smith & Sons is what it looks like on the bottle. Love your videos ladies.
Gail and Alex, Merry Christmas, and thank you for another great adventure. I'm sending you much Peace, Love, and Happiness this season and throughout the new year. All my best from New England, USA. Avaloch93
Always wonderful wandering with you, and your musical choices are perfect!
Glad you enjoy it! xx
Ms. Gail is Lovely
I love your country so full history and all your miracle finds beneath the earth almost lost. I also love the story behind your treasure finds. Thankyou from me in Adelaide South Australia 🇦🇺 xxx
Hi love the channel ladies, me and my son regularly go mudlarkarking in the same areas & belive we have crossed paths before! Love the channel and what you both do have helped us with your videos in explaining some of the finds we have found ourselves 👍 would love to show and share with with you some of our own finds and if u could shed any light on some of our items ! Keep up the good work & hope our paths cross again good luck happy larking!!!
The cursive on the bottle says Herbert Smiths & Sons.
The decorative but chunky chain with traces of gold may have been burnt gilt and part of a decorative metal chandelier hung up with ornate chains? But I think only bronze and iron can be guilded that way. And it was copper, no?
Lots of cool bits and bobs! Love the history told and the nature photography too! Merry Advent girls! 🎄🌟🕯️🕯️🕯️🔔❄️🍄
Copper with traces of nickel and gold
Hello lovely ladies! It rained here today as well and so this mudlark was perfect. I would say the multi color bead is wonderful. Thank you 🌸V
Another good one. I would love to see the collection of Bonkey bottles!
Hello you two! All the amazing treasures you found today make it impossible to choose a favorite.
I did notice a couple of item you might not have seen. There’s nothing you can do about it now, anyway. As you said, you can’t see everything.
At 1:46, in the lower right hand side of the screen, just under a lumpy crescent shape tan rock, I saw what looks to be a bottom corner of a chunky blue poison bottle, which was likely broken, so maybe you did see it and just moved on.
At 41:58, at the top center of the screen there was a lovely piece embossed sheet glass in a lovely amber shade. It’s sitting on top of a black flat surface so it’s easy to see how you could miss it.
And earlier in the video, I saw Alex pick up a little melted clear yellow glass bottle. I wasn’t certain, but I heard Alex referring to her wonky bottle collection. At least, that’s what she meant to say.
I had to play the video back to hear it again just to check my hearing and sanity. I am very detail oriented by nature.
Sure enough, it came out as her Bonky Wattle collection! Too funny!
I’ve come out with some unintentional tongue twisters myself over the years, so you are not unique nor alone!
I think I was commenting about a new construction site going up next to my childhood friend’s apartment. Unlike today, they used real wood beams.
Any way I was trying to say how I enjoyed the smell of freshly cut lumber and it came out all jumbled! I was shocked that even came out of my mouth (I can’t remember exactly what I said, but it had my friend in stitches!). So embarrassing!
Anyway, oversights and imperfection we all have no shortage of, and I’m no exception! Keep up the great videos, I loved every bit you found.
Thank you!!!!!!!
A good haul of finds there and some interesting bits and pieces. Loved the silvered glass thing and so many cod marbles.🌲🌲
So very special to find a slate with the name on it!
So many finds, love watching your channel.
My little girl called her " DUMMY" her drippy.
Always love the little roundup of everything on the table all cleaned up at the end of your videos!
Alex should have kept that yellow bottle stop. It looked like Vaseline glass. Maybe it glows. If not, it would still make beautiful beads.
@@NorthernMudlarks Its on the vid!🥰
@@NorthernMudlarksYou know, the clear intense broken yellow stopper that was very large and was molded into a radiating design. It lost over half of it’s top. It’s a lot to keep track of.
We don't like to melt the UV glass for safety reasons and we have to limit wat we take home - we have so much stuff, lol xx
@@NorthernMudlarksThe business of trying to melt UV glass crossed my mind too. To properly contain the fumes and such is a major undertaking. You’re better off sticking to “extant” uranium beads.
I did have a strand of lovely light green crystal faceted beads, and I wanted to wear them, but the thought of having something slightly (?) radioactive right against my chest made me nervous, so I sold it.
I love watching y’all discover treasures. The photography is beautiful and I so enjoy your music choices!
Thanks! Happy holidays! 🌞🎅🏻🎄🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎄
Cool finds ladies
That multi colored bead or the dark code marble would be cool for the window.
I like the large bottle stopper of clear glass. I also like the large link chain.
Love the “black” cod marble and the big glass stopper. Love your river larking.
