    I just love that you make your finds part of your every day life, by turning them into wearable jewelry or just carrying them in your pocket. It’s not just about acquiring things for you, and that love is why we keep watching.

    Thanks for another lovely video and greetings from central Texas, where we're currently in the midst of the coldest winter storm in 40 years, so your snow day adventure really resonated. I love the tiny be-fezzed gentleman and you also sent me down an internet rabbit hole re wild ring-necked parrots. I had no idea there was such a large naturalised population in the UK.

      The ring necked parakeets have tropical origins and are mostly found in suburban parks , large gardens and orchards . They are descended from escapees or unwanted pets with one recorded in the county of Norfolk about 100 miles to the north of London in 1885 but were only really noticed when they started to breed in numbers 1969 in Kent south east of London , the South of England has on average milder winters with less frosty weather than us in the North of England so they have spread to a few other counties in the south . One rumour is that the birds escaped or were set free from the Film studios in Isleworth in the London Borough of Harrow when the 1950 ‘s film The African Queen with Humphrey Bogarde and Catherine Hepburn was completed .

    Happy Valentine's Day 2021 Nicola. 💕 I was never a Valentine's gal myself, perhaps due to being unlucky in love, but it's nice to hear you speak of it. It snowed here last Saturday also. And like you It doesn't happen that often in SCarolina. It was nice to see everything covered and people excited. The necklace you had a backing put on is really beautiful. I'm sure the person it belonged to was so happy you found it and brought it back to life. Enjoy your tea and stay warm today. It's rainy and cold here. A bit like England. Or so I will think while I sell wine to the lovers on this day. 💖. Nancy

    I really enjoy your counting. Besides the unique finds you teach all of us history about our mother land across the pond. Thank you.

      the gold locket I gave to Nicola belonged to my mother, Nic's maternal grandmother, and is studded with tiny turquoise stones so is quite old.

    Such nice stories of love and what a shock to see parakeets on a wintery day. I had no idea that there were feral parakeets in England and have associated them with tropical places. Always a pleasure to learn from your videos which makes them so special.

    Envy the snow. I'm in Aus and we've had a long very hot summer. Really enjoy you videos Nicola. Keep warm.

    Another lovely video Nicola. Nicely put together, liked all the diverse elements of it. And you've introduced me to a castle I've never heard about before.

    Imagine that. You can find a pipe in a snow storm.

    The bottle is a beautiful one. The rings and pipes are just great! The Thames just giving small treasures! Nicola you bring history back in an interesting way.

    I think the little head is a Turk's head.. maybe a figurine of the Ottoman sultan? Looks like a dress uniform collar round the neck.

    You are so keen lol - Rosy cheeks in that cold weather Nicola! Nice bottle, marble and coin finds! Thankyou for the Valentines Day selection - they were beautiful! And the beautiful walk in the forest - the lovely green parrot pair, and the story of the castle! Never let the weather be a barrier! Now go get warm! LOL

    Definitely a cherub on the pin. Sweet. Oh my gosh, those pale green birds were amazing! So beautiful and the fact that they were a couple makes them even more special. I live in the NW of America, and we don't have anything like that here. Love to you Nicola, every day.
