Shame you didnt have snow shoes to walk on the mud. I wish I could come to England to mudlark for a few days with you and Nicola.
Hello from america I'm catholic and that thing that you say is a crucifix is really called a Rosary we use them during hard times or good times. Also we use it for to pray with it at church at home or funeral where ever! Trying to live here during these hard times.
you missed the coin stuck to the stone behind the first bottle
@@jonlennon3348 didn’t need to mate
@@umbongoapg It was a temple token, the same as Monika found so didn’t bother filming it. Good spot tho
So sad to see all the rubbish dumped in by irresponsible humans.
A huge thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who are helping the wildlife.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
A local lake in a woodland (former gravel pit) was drained when it was being made into a nature reserve. A safe was found in it. It belonged to a well-known family of shopkeepers locally and had been missing for 30 years. The door was open and contents gone. BUT there was a seperate drawer they hadn't opened. The police opened it and there was a quantity of jewellery in it including some valuable rings which also had sentimental value. The family were reunited with their things that they'd resigned themselves to never seeing again. They had been in the water barely three miles from their home all that time.
Cool story
Finding items lost for 30 years is amazing. Family Jewlery found so very lucky.
That 45 record is probably a song from the group, Mud.
haha
that's right that's right that's right that's right
😂😂😂
That does look like a real pearl, actually, set in the silver ring you found. An old jeweller's trick to test if it is real, is to rub the pearl against your front teeth. If the pearl feels smooth, then it's fake. But if the pearl feels rough and drags slightly against your teeth, then it's real!
Speaking as a former jeweller, that pearl looks to me as if it could be a freshwater Scottish pearl, as there is not a lot of colour refracting off it - but I can still see some flashes of pale pink and green as the ring catches the light. A very nice find, Si - do the pearl tooth test and let us know the result!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I was wondering if it is real because they're so porous and tend to dull after water exposure. I'm no expert though!
Ok- I’m an expert! Sold pearls for years in Hawaii! The tooth thing is bunk! And pearls love water! It’s their home after all! But I don’t know about the mud… 💕
@@marilynmiller5605 That reservoir looked so muddy though, if pearls are porous, and I've read up on caring for them in a few places and all of them say they are, surely the mud would get into the pearl? Who knows! It's a very pretty ring!
I think offerings should be biodegradable. With the amount found that is a lot of things in the water. Please know I am not knocking any religion. I just think something needs to be done to help the enviroment.
I agree, some of those medieval pins and such have been in the waterways for hundreds of years, it’s a disgrace….
Well, metal objects and ceramics aren’t going to do any harm other than clutter things up. Plastics are another matter.
Those people don't care about others, they are in their own fantasy world. All religious people are. Only care about their own cult.
Litter is litter whether its relegious ot not.
Agree
An old friend of mine and his wife were on the BOAC plane that was hijacked and blown up, they were still on the plane when it exploded destroying all the seats behind theirs, Fortunatly they both survived with minor injury.
Planes were empty in news reports and in the wikipedia article, however under hostage interviews hostage #3 says he thinks there were a couple of people on board when it blew. Someone should correct these erroneous reports of "empty planes!"
Wow.. and now u.k. lives w them to the point that London is more hindu and muslim then British Christian
Wow! Lucky them
The story i was told by my friends was that most people were taken off and were approx 200mtr from the planes. He and his wife were in the que departing when a bomb went off blowing up the back of the plane.. When they picked themselves up they saw the seats from 2 rows behind theirs were gone.. As someone who has exposed news governments want supressed i can say for certain we are told what they want us to know whether true or not. Do you remember a film called,,,,Black hawk down ? every bit was fictious and film was made to coverup a colossal failure by the US. @@juneyshu6197
Great video as always. My dad worked for BOAC and that’s why we came to America. He was sales and our house was full of the old giveaways, royal blue with company logo. That bag is not a passenger or giveaway bag but a company bag and was owned by flight operations, note the number on it. Perhaps an old employee in the UK can identify which division used these ops bags.
Very interesting - cheers
Thanks - Whoop Whoop!
Thanks so much my angel! 👍🏻🐾🧡😇
That looks so fun! Cleaning up and finding treasures all at the same time!
Best part of my Sunday when i watch this channel
Yeh, it’s chill.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Im surprised there isnt a law about throwing offerings into the rivers there as you so many everytime you go out
Great finds ,great to see everyone pitching in x
Me too. I believe a fenced off area should be used, and routinely cleaned up
I don't think these were offerings, I think they were dumped there after robberies on properties, increasingly targeting Indian families who keep a lot of jewellery and gold. The safe's are cracked open the valuable stuff removed and everything else thrown in the water, so no fingerprints or DNA.
@@catinthehat906 watch all the videos in this series and come back to me 👍🏻
From what I could find on the fish lock, the language is Tibetan mantra. According to an ad for one being sold on eBay, the lock is made in the Northwest of India.
Very helpful thanks!
Thanks for the research!
did you missed the coin which was pressed against the stone where you picked up the bottle at 16:55 ?
I saw it too!
That was another temple token which we picked up. well noticed
So nice to see Monica and Anna. I love the cloth that Anna found. So many fun finds!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
It was lovely to see another clip of Not Si's Cat.🙂 brilliant finds, a fab interesting crowd on the mudlark with you too.❤
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Cool fish shaped padlock just beautifully engraved . The offerings tossed with prayer into water amazing finds. Luck in the muck.
Simon never disappoints! Always interesting and funny content. Love the cameos of Monica, Anna, and Cuffs. Can't wait to find out what the 45 is.. and what they had to "Bag and tag"! 😂😊
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I love the gorgeous fish padlock.
You always have to call the police when Cuffs is involved!
Haha right!
Hi Si in the early 60s me and my mate Wayne found a box of ww2 mills grenades under that road bridge because he lived in the flats he took them home and put them under his bed gave him mother kittens when she was cleaning .and i learnt to sail there.
haha no way!
What a fantastic opportunity to search an area not seen for such a long time, 👍👍👍👍👍
You’re a good egg Si-finds ❤️ I love the way you do your bit to keep the world a beautiful place x x x Much love, B x x x
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Another fantastic video. Good on you and all the volunteers for cleaning up the mess. It is sad to see how much garbage, etc. is thrown in the waterways. I was very interested in all the religious offerings as well. Can't wait for more mudventures!
Excellent 🇨🇦
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
It doesnt matter if its breaking down easily, the question is what it does to the water when its disolves ... Paints, chemicals etc.
Looking forward to see what you find……
It's fun to see Anna get excited about the offerings!
Oh Anna ur a breath of fresh air!! Well done Si great to see all ur friends helping out the environment too! ❤❤
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
He’s bigger then I though … “ that’s what she said “ 🤣🤣 thanks for the laugh !!
lol
What a dream come true for mudlarkers. I love the ladies who lark. yay! We are magnet fishers in the states (Arizona) and they are draining our canals right now to clean. They scoop everything out with bulldozers. Not so great for magnet fishing.
This is the time when a magnet fisher turns into a mudlarkers!
You want to detect the spoil!
Can't believe I missed this yesterday...Mardi Gras is in full swing here & lots of work. Cannot Wait to see part 2. Love it when all of y'all are together in a video!
Better late than never Mudlover👍🏻🐾🧡
Great fun clean up Si, fab to see so many people helping out.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great fun and purposeful! I really enjoyed this lark. I, too, saw a coin you might have missed. 45 is Beatles, "I Want to Hold Your Hand!" Cheers from Pennsylvania, USA
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Double goodness, clearing up, larking and oh yeah, a whole lot of fun!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Thanks for the interesting video Si. Love the fish lock. Cheers.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Epic yes! Your outstanding editing made a river trash cleanup so interesting and entertaining. Luv your friends and you nailed it again with your emotional intelligence.
So looking forward to it!!😍😍
My best friends dad worked for BOAC out of Manchester. It’s been years since I heard from her as I moved to the USA in 1972. She did visit me once in 1983 after I had both my children, now have 6 amazing grandchildren. So Susan Matthew’s if you are reading this I miss you so much my friend.
What a lark!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Ooooooh can't wait till part 2.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Always love seeing what you find. So much fun
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Fabulous video! Always fun! And thanks for cleaning up the waters!
Lovely finds in the muck, Si!❤
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
KITTY! Great job out there, cleaning up and finding fun stuff in the muck. Looking forward to part 2. 😻
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
16.55, there's a coin against the rock next to bottle :)
temple token - we picked it up but was identical to the other one. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Just a quick mention about a CZcams series called Below the plains, the guy just bottle digs, but it's his tool that is interesting ( no smut) he's cut the 2 outer tines off his fork, making it like a pair of steel fingers, and great for getting round bottle necks. Also makes it easier to dig in rocky places.👌
Love the adventure Simon always. I'm behind I had some problems with my health but I hope to catch up with you. And see all of your great adventures, love yours, videos, stay blast, my young man.
Cheers Roger - better late than never old bean
What an experience to scratch around in a place like that ! So interesting all your finds and you always look like you have such a laugh while you are doing it . Can't wait for Part 2 !
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
My father-in-law started his career with Imperial Airways (later BOAC) and retired in the 1970's. He was a flight engineer, and was proud to say he was qualified to taxi the Concord in the later part of his career.
wowza!
Looking forward to part 2 xx
Another great video to watch with a cupa and bar of chocolate! love it so far and only 10 minutes in ..
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Wonderful finds. Little muddy. All that matter you helped clean up the water. I sure if a fish could talk it would say thank your friend shirley from new, north carolina ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😅😊
Cheers Shirley! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Your channel is one of my "comfort" channels. Great video and wonderful finds! Hi from Buffalo, NY!
ah thanks so much
Just seen your bottle dump dig from 4 years ago, the cat with Strike me... it's a match striker, the holes where the whiskers should be were for matches and it's back which was broken off was the striker👌
Beautiful ring u found/u guys r Sooooooo sweet to do that pick up the trash / u guys r finding some nice things along the way
Monicas sure looks real! cheers.

Great video! Can't believe I missed that day. Thank you all for clearing up all that rubbish xox
You and me had our own private party!
Very cool finds and exploring and cleanup! Well done, you all!

Great vlog very lnteresting Elliot
My friend owns a 120 year old reservoir. I was finding old beer bottles and liquor jugs on the bank. Nearby I found a small 1930s trash dump with Japanese artifacts! Awesome video btw.
That's awesome!
Great video!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Safes, guns, offerings! It's like a crime seen down there! Great to see you all down there cleaning up the waterways. The ring was a great find. 😊
I was just thinking the same...evidence of at least a half a dozen burglaries!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
What a great adventure!!!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I think the 45 , is Brimful of Asha 👌 such a joyous tune 🙏 well done to all of you wonderful volunteers for clearing the waterways 🙏
Ha! I thought of that song too!!! I loved cornershop
@@stephaniecrane6803 me too 👌
lol
Thanks for the video.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Funny to see rhese video's at this reservoir . I just saw a video of a couple who were having a guided tour of the same locks just a few days ago. They are restoren a canalboat.
I’m happy you’re brave enough to rescue these things I would be afraid of getting stuck but would love to try!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Oh wow. Great FUN!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Very interesting 👍🏼
Delightful project! I love the boot adaptation for the mud, clever! Lots of Ganesha stuff; Beautiful fabrics! That looks like a pellet gun I bought to dissuade the magpie outside my bedroom window. (Never actually hit him) That's too yellow for real gold. Getting a cup of coffee for part 2!
Can't wait
I love the fish lock, it is so unique!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
it would be worth teaming up with a scrapper to pick up the metal!
As mentioned, the large pieces are taken by contractors
Round cylindrical find is a lock tumbler, hello Si , from Indiana USA👍
Cheers!
Quite the cutie your talking to in the beginning ...
So much respect for your water ways,well done all of you ladies & gents!❤
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
looks like fun !!! try snowshoes to keep from sinking in the mud !!
Some terrific finds this day. Many Hindu artifacts and safes, coins and other assorted objects. Thank you for the video, Si. Glad to see Cuff again. See you on the next. Cheers Si! 🇬🇧👍🙂🇺🇸
Loved the exploding swan! I think it is, “George Girl” on the 45. Second guess is, “Gloria.”
Thanks!
the ''Gun'' is a blank adapted prop gun based off the German Walther PP, para is short for Parabellum, which was the ammunition used, the 9mm Parabellum round, which is still used today in modern 9mm pistols, and in this case probably signifies that it takes 9mm blanks
Can't wait for part 2 x
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I'm a new subscriber for Alabama in USA
Is this an actual water storage for consumption!?! Yuckkkkk!!! Or just a place for it to rest on its way to the sea? It appears to be a common depository for anything and everything. Many, many people fill it up with their junk and so few gather together to clean it out! Sad ☹️. But thanks must be given to those doing the cleaning up. You are the salt of the earth! THANK YOU ONE AND ALL😊👌🏻
I guess it`s a silt-pond, made to help keep the river from getting to muddy, and to kreate a livingspace for wetland/riverside birds and animals.🤔
It water saved to help fill the canals
31:35 parking meter was a keeper. It would clean up fairly well.
I did consider taking it... maybe i'll go back for it... hmmm
Definitely a real pearl...they come in all sorts of shapes, colors, and vary widely in quality. Yours is a pretty one, although unlikely to be a very expensive one, set in sterling. A great little find!
Cheers Kath
I love the fish padlock - 🤩
cool init
That pearl looks real and I work with pears every day. They have a certain luster. But it is a camera.
think you missed a coin when the bottle was picked up between 16/17 minutes in right next to the rock, only mentioned is as you showed the coin being missed later, great time with the larking friends and so much to find. thank you
It was another temple token we picked it up
Ruby Tuesday on the 45. Thanks to all for the clean up!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
To Sir with Love!
omg so awesome! i wish you guys could use a metal detector i understand you have restrictions but such awesome history found. love it.
We did that too - stay tuned
Just seen the one from a couple of years ago when you were in Berwick, and on your up cycle you couldn't remember the name of the ball thingy that went in the cistern...a ballcock....
😂 so called because it floated on the water and ' cocked' the valve back into the shut position 👌👍
I hope it’s the mamas and the Papas 😂. I bet that the ring is real pearl since the metal is silver. Love the fish padlock, it is so cool 😊 I love that you can see the original river path. It’s so cool that you can mudlark whilst saving the environment. 😊. I love the Pepsi bottles. It’s amazing what remains after so much time 😮. I cant wait to hear what the record has on it. You could plant strawberries in the diffuser pot. It would be perfect for it I think. Unless it’s ancient 😂 maybe they used the pots with incense and then prayed and threw them in? Great video today 😊
I love strawberries - good idea
Careless Whisper by George Michael (the record). Cool video Si. 🖖🏽 Anna reminds me of Mrs. Figg from Harry Potter, love her enthusiasm.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I think the record will be something by MUD, The cat crept in perhaps ? 🤣😂😉
