It's obvious Sarah is not only your partner and love of your life but your absolute luckiest charm too. You both are very blessed to have each other ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎
I love when Sarah comes with you, I wish she would dig all the time w you. I love the finds. Great.
Thanks Pam - and me too! Sarah's kept busy with her own channel too, otherwise she's come digging more often. Willie :)
My thoughts exactly
Loving the belters! Love your mini happy dancing! I sure hope you take Sarah out for a Valentine dinner! She’s a belter!💕
That lid you found looks more like a top for a cookie jar then for a cooking pot.
i LOVE that overhead tree bit at the beginning of the dig
Thanks - we're putting a few drone shots in these videos now. Glad you appreciate them! Willie :)
So many treasures on this dig. I love the bottle with the thistles on it best.
Thanks Penny - we love that one too! Don't think I'd ever let that one go! Willie :)
The thistle bottle is a stunner
Completely agree! Willie :)
Awesome production! Very much enjoy your work Willie. Way cool to find Sarah digging too. My favorites are the antique artifacts that turn up, so interesting to learn how the items were a part of life back in their day. Celebrate and dance Willie, pulling those fantastic bottles, stoneware, pots, etc… in such good condition is definitely exciting and gives a rush of joy at the point of discovery. See ya next dig✌️
You know Sarah's a keeper when she's happy about being taken to a literal dump for Valentine's Day.
That very large lid you found is a crock lid. You are very lucky to find that, as .any times the crocks survives and and the lid is broken. I remember my mother using crocks in the cellar to store fruitcakes in to let them age so they would be ready for the holidays. Wonderful find. Now you have to keep your eye out for a crock that needs a cover. I have several crocks, but bought it made wooden covers as the covers broke years ago
My mom would store my grandma's big crocks (original lids too!), full of cucumbers becoming pickles, in our basement during the summer when I was growing up in Wisconsin. I loved her homemade dill pickles from baby cucumbers grown in our garden.
THAT THISTLE BOTTLE!!! 🤩 🥳
I know! Crazy cool! Willie :)
Wow ! What an absolute hoard of absolute belters =o) Love the restoration job on the cream pot . Brilliantly done
so many treasures had, but one is always with you is the love of your life Sarah, God Bless you both 🥰
Sarah's metal thingy may be a coat hook?
Edit from the full time roundup! I think your two porcelain balls screw on to both of the ends!
A few belters there Willie 👍👍
Thank you for another totally absorbing video. You find them, you film them, you research them, you clean them, AND you restore them. That’s a lot of work and especially this weekend, a welcome reprieve from the so-called real world. It’s nice to escape into yours sometimes.
Love the aerial views addition. Another great dig 😊
Thanks Tammara - the drone shots are proving quite popular! Gas you enjoyed another episode! Willie :)
'He digs, he finds, he restores'! Brilliant video Willie. Great to see Sarah with you.
The shape of the skittle (?) bottle is so charming--the one with all the thistles is a real beauty.
Great belter of a video. Great finds. Go Sarah
Thanks Barbara - glad you enjoyed it! Sarah said thanks. Willie :)
Hi Willie and Sarah,nice wee collection again,loved Sarah’s wee food cup and lid,think that lid could be cut down too fit a crock you got a while back,good too see you both digging together,what I do when i do a repair is try and get the colour as near as possible,then mix it through the milliput,again what works for one,might not work for another,still you got it filled and painted ok.Well done you both.👍
Hi Robert - that's a really great suggestion - thanks. I've since learned a new trick, through trial and error. It'll feature in a new video, probably in around 2 weeks or so. Definite game changer for me! Willie :)
@@dirtysecretsofscotland looking forward too seeing what you are going too coming up with,might be a good tip for me,cheers,👍
Just love everything y 2 talented peeps do!!! Blessings
Thanks Jeanne - we appreciate your kind words of support. Willie :)
That cream pot repair is fabulous, well done again. Great video and finds. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks! It was a fairly quick repair, this one. I recently did a full porter bottle repair - that took AGES!! Lots of trial and error.
It'll feature in about 2 weeks. Willie :)
We love your show here in Oklahoma, nothing is beyond possible with the obvious loving young couple 💑 we are very much entertained, thank you.
So many belters! The food warmer is fantastic great history of how the term fairy lights came to be. Terrific bottles, great fun. Great job Sarah 👏❤️🐕🇺🇸
Wonderful video with super finds. Love the belter boogie! Nice to see you and Sarah enjoying time together. Have a great week. 🇨🇦
What a belter/stotter of a day…first belter, I bet, was having Sarah with you! So many cheeky little dances for all those great finds! Your rainy-day fix-up was well-done, Willie.
Nice v❤lentine's diggin duo! Luv the repair Willie ..Sara I think your pot lid would make a nice bird feeder or plant drain plate in macrame plant hanger. Happy hunting
Brilliant! You guys are treat to watch. Thank you so very much🤗 xx
I couldn’t find anything on the thistle bottle so it is probably rare, what an absolute belter!!!
A great video you both had some sweet finds. how did the trees get on in storm Eunice at the bottle dump . i lost a lot of lovely trees sadly..stay safe..VIC...
Great dig!!! Love your new sit down dance.
Thanks Sadie! Saves some energy for all that digging! Willie :)
You can’t even tell that it was ever damaged. Great job ♥️♥️♥️
I found an egg in the barn when we moved in here in the 60s in the chicken nests. They were long gone but the houses were left. They put them in the nest to encourage the chickens. I love you guys. You be good to her Willie, she is a cool keeper!
What amazing memories and finds you two made today. Thank you for bringing us along. Love the repair of the cream pot. Take care and see you next weekend 👍👍👏👏💖💖
I think that is an old nest egg.
My Grandfather put glass nest eggs in his hen's nest boxes. Some hens will not lay their eggs in a nest box, if an egg is not already on the nest. This was to keep all the hens laying in the same nest boxes that he provided. One afternoon, when he went into the barn to check his nest boxes, he found one of the boxes empty (no glass nest egg). Not far from the nest box he found a snake who had gone through a knot hole to crush the eggs he had swallowed. The glass egg was solid glass; and, the snake could not crush it (he was stuck). Grandfather killed the snake and got his glass nest egg back.
Oh Willie......it just wouldn't be one of your videos without you delightful smile as you dance you better dance. Your dance brightens my day and I just love to see the total happiness in your heart. ❤️🐕🇺🇸
Willie, you're not tired from digging, you're tired from dancing. What a belter of a day for you and Sarah. Sarah I think you metal piece is a jacket hanger and the white porcelain ball goes on one of the ends. Take care you two and be safe.✌
Well that had to have set a record for Absolute Belters! It's a good thing you decided to shorten the dances or you would have been exhausted. Congrats! It was nice seeing Sarah along with you. I'm certainly glad you gave her a chance in the bit you were digging in, all that work for nothing has to get discouraging. All in all you both had some wonderful finds. Thanks again for including us in the fun. The repair came out great. Well done! :-D
Wow, the two of you have found amazing things. I really enjoy the two of you together. Thanks so much, cheers. Also your repair was fantastic.
Great finds, I think the sign is the Bass Brewery trademark
Great finds! Sarah’s large lid looks like the lid of a bread crock. The uranium glass lid Willie found looks like part of a dressing table set. I love the Swedish medicine bottle!
Loved doing this as a kid. Good memories
What a haul of belters from both of you, almost need to pool them all together and do one mega belter dance 🕺💃 beautiful repair job on the cream pot too Willie!
Sarah, I love the hair color! And how romantic to dig in the dirt with your husband. I love the food warmer. It did look like a flower pot. The thistle bottle is an absolute belter!
Love watching you dig for treasures. Others just walk around looking at what other diggers left or scrape a little dirt. Please keep digging down for all those dirty secrets. Pam from Texas
Great finds! Love you guys digging together! Good job on your restoration!
IMPRESSIVE repair Willie! 👍🏻
Your ‘steath dance’ for the blue poison just cracked me up. Tell Sarah the curly thing she found is a hat/coat hook. Probably some small decorative knobs screwed into the ends.
That big lid is perfect to turn over Spanish potato tortillas in the frying pan. 😀
Your getting good with that drone mate
Great finds! Sarah should come digging more often.
I agree Dorothy. Sadly Sarah doesn’t always have the time to join me though. When she can, she enjoys a dig. Willie 😊
An absolute belter of an episode!!!!❤️ You two are love birds no doubt! ❤️❤️
Wow wow wow mind blowing finds! So many picking is hard off the top of my head egg, tiny pitcher, thistle bottle,blue poison, ginger jar, and you finally found a fairy in the Magic Treasure Tip lol! Good to see you Sarah! Off to watch Sarah’s video next! Thank guys! 💕💕WV🇺🇸
Thanks Lynette - glad you enjoyed the video. A fairy was bound to show up at some point!
Hope you enjoy Sarah's video too! Willie :)
Ya'll are the cutest couple awesome dig woo-hoo
I also Love when Sarah comes and digs. She was doing her first dig near my first video of DSoS. Great finds, Willie you should share the Belters LOL Awesome repair. I have not been getting my notifications, so I clicked off and back on hopefully that will work. Off to walk with Sarah....
It's the best! But, alas, she's a busy lass! She will join me from time to time though. And thanks - getting more confident with the repairs.
Hope you enjoyed your walk with Sarah! Willie :)
@@dirtysecretsofscotland i did, as always. Thanks, all of you (including Jack) are awesome.
You do a great job restoring. I enjoy your whole show. And also when Sarah and the Northern Mudlarks visit
Super dooper finds. Love your new renditions of the Belter music. Especially like the porcelain egg Belter music.
Way to go Sarah, I love when you two dig together. I like to see diggers react to their finds with another live soul at the time of the find....now I will stop writing and give my full attention to the video.
Happy digging, I'm hoping for some belters from both of you.
Thanks Mare - always lovely to dig with Sarah. Wish she could join me all the time, but she's just too busy unfortunately. Willie :)
It's always good to see Sarah with you.
I completely agree! Willie :)
A great day for belters and team work. You make such a wonderful pair! Cheers and keep up the good work.
Both of you did very well! I love the thistle bottle. You were meant to find that one for your collection.
Enjoyed seeing Willie legless!
...and congratulations on advance for the 6k!
Awww. Loved this episode with both of you in it. Brilliant finds as always. I'm so jealous of the blue poison. I'd have been salty too if Dave found that before me. 😂👍
LOVE LOVE LOVE The Red Dwarf reference, Sarah!
Sarah - your gloves are humongous! You need a wee pair! I love how both of you are so curious, creative, and crazy 😍
Super nice finds !!
It makes me happy when y’all dance…dance whenever the mood strikes you
Great finds. I can’t wait to try milliput . I saw that on Northern Mudlarks I think.
Very fun finds! I saw that exact same uranium glass lid and a fragment from that fairy light rhyme in other people's videos this week. I've been thinking I would love to make a pork pie ink and one of the larger inks into oil lamps with a clay bead to hold the wicks-those curtain draw things Sarah found would be perfect for that. Hope you did something romantic after you got cleaned up from your dig 😉.
nice to see you guys doing a dual dig.. some really nice finds :)
Thanks - always great when Sarah gets a chance to join me! Glad you enjoyed it! Willie :)
brilliant restoration on the jar.
That’s a great crock lid Sarah, love it.
Love the ariel belter dance, lol. You guys are so funny. Way to go, be happy. Just an idea for the broken bottles might be to cut off the panels of the bottles with writing on them, that aren't broken, put them in a shadow box or frame. Of course smooth the edges and make a pice of art. A great way to save heart-breakers. Do like it when Sarah joins you and her finds are just as great, but where is our favorite pup? I know he must be around.
Love to see you two together!
Willie you are a funny guy and sweet with it , Sarah is lucky to have you & you to have a lovely lady who loves to share the same interests with you.
It’s looks interesting to see how you fine those nice things some new & old . I like getting small bottles of whiskey with the different labels of places, glans & history from different cultures . Keep up your good dirty secrets of Scotland love you guys 👍🐶💖
i've heard of the fairy lights. some people use the broken egg cups as seats in doll houses. It was good to see Sarah with you I wish she could dig with you more maybe she will in the summertime
Loved your restoration process. Excellent video.
Thanks - really enjoying these restorations. I dig my most successful one yet recently. It’ll be on a video very soon. Glad you’re enjoying our videos. Willie 😊
I’m so glad I found this channel. I learn new things, see the beautiful Scottish outdoors, and have a laugh at Willie’s antics. Definitely one of the favorite parts of my week is watching these videos!
I am so glad to come across your video's I can not believe the amount of wonderful things you get out, intact. I fell in love with the trinket box with figurine on, then coming across the top some way across where you found the bottom ! I love the perfume bottles too. I love the singing and dancing you both do, lots of fun. That you both xxx
The curved thing with missing ends at around 5:00 is a hat and coat hook. It had china knobs.
I think she found the knobs, too. Around 10:48 on the ground.
I love that Skittle bottle and those mini straight sided plant pots are fab! I'd use that food warmer as a house plant pot probably 😂 Lots of other gems too! A trick I found with milliput is to get the terracotta colour stuff and the white and black variants and mix both parts of each, then combine them. Make a good terracotta colour if mixed in a good ratio!
Thanks Richard! The skittle is a belter! In pride of place on my minerals shelf!
Plant pot is a grand suggestion - and it might be exactly its destiny! Willie :)
Great to see Sarah! Actually I’d rather be digging in a tip on Valentines, you’re a lucky girl! I’m sure there was a nice dinner too! So many great finds!
You find such treasures 😊
Wow, you where on fire with all those "belters" I think you did more dancing than digging 😅 great finds, that thistle bottle was the icing on the cake. Nice to see Sarah there, and you gave her a shot in your dig, hers was just not playing. Keep up the great videos...
Ps. Was nice to see you pop up on Sarah's new video.
ABSOLUTE BELTERS! You can hardly dig for dancing! Please don’t stop dancing! I smile every time! Congrats on all the great finds! Love your channels, your attitudes, your video offerings! Thank you.
Ooh. Willie you have to have Sarah paint the thissel bottle. She could bring out all of the embossing with the way she shades things. What a team you are.
I may have a few comments today. Sorry to be a pest.
Thanks Mare. Maybe she will one day! If so, you can take credit for the idea! And don't be silly - not being a pest at all! We love your comments! Willie :)
May I say how very much I enjoyed watching Willie do the Absolute Belter dance!! As a Scotch Irish American you've single handedly restored my faith in my heritage. I thank you Sir👌🥳
The triangle sign is for Bass beer. Love the channel.
Good haul. Thanks for the educational info. Interesting. 🌳🌲🍄🍶👢💍💰
Great dig! I love all the bottles you found. The big yellow pot lid looks like something I have seen in a picture of an old general store. It had big Red Wing jars of pickles, crackers and stuff like that. They lids like the one you found. Please stay safe and be careful! ❤❤
Excellent but I've heard of The Chicken Dance but not The Egg Dance,cracking stuff! Oh I didn't mean that pun.All the best.
Fantastic! Thanks Richard.
What came first, the chicken or the egg...? Clearly the egg... Dinosaurs hatched from em! Ha! Willie :)
Happy ❤ day I love your found so far I hope the hearts will shine down on both ahappy day. This is shirley from new Bern . North Carolina u.s.a. keep finding more pretty things ❤😂🎉🎉🎉😅
So so awesome, you guys!! I’m wondering how large is the ‘tip’? I hope there is alot more, such great finds!!
Thanks Judith! The tip is absolutely massive! But even if I did dig it all out, I also have permission on several more. I literally don't have enough time to get through them all! Willie :)
Great digs guys!😁
Awesome to see you both on a dig. I love watching the repairs you to the old cream pots. Well done.
Please share how using the rods helps you determine where to dig. Thanks!
This was a stoater of a video! Its always nice to see Sarah with you, and the drone shots are always amazing. I *love* the thistle bottle, and the ginger jar, and Sarah's teal coloured bottle was gorgeous. Uranium glass always fascinates me, I'm happy that lid was whole.
And so many varieties of belter dances lol, we got an aerial one, a sit down one, a sneaky one, and loads of just 'happy dances' 😃
And Sarah finding a wee leg, they always make me think of the Northern Mudlarks too - I always hear Alex's excited voice in my head - 'it's a *leeeeeg* '😂
I'm off to see where Sarah is walking and what she is painting now 😁
Those little porcelain balls belong with the brass coat hook you found earlier…one on each tip
very cool dig.. some stuf iv not seen. yet another stockport bottle lol.. good job i got a stockport beer today lol
