    Your not alone in the love of the little things. You find such interesting items on your larks. Plus then you give, more often than not, a history or snippets of information about the things you've both found. It just adds to the enjoyment of sharing your larks.
    Yey to finding treasure too. 😂
    A silver victorian coin. Not to be sniffed at. I really liked the hare printed into the lead piece...blob. its a shame we couldn't see that whole. Also the clay horse...that was lovely. What a pipe that must have been.
    I'm now off to watch the Lost Tower diaries. See you again soon. X

    Nice variety of finds I believe Gail is right about the rabbit being a test of a mould ...it's better to waste lead than the final material for a test but it wasn't wasted because it has found a new home within your collection of curios....it's cool when little dolly has a friend to play hide and seek with....and we all love "It's a Legg"...looking forward to next week...Karl from eastern Canada

    Alex---I just LOVE when you say,...."It's a leeeeg"! I follow a couple on FB who love antiques and are restoring an old house. The other day he found some fabulous furniture in the trash, that also had some little people that were attached to it, and one item he found was.........a LEG! 😅🤣. I literally laughed out loud, and then told him all about you! He said he would check out your channel. Then other people chimed in and said how much they adore your channel, and then someone else said they were quite intrigued and would check you out as well. So, you are quite famous now for saying, "It's a leeeeg"! 😅. Please keep saying it. 😊

    At 14:38 in the video, there was broken red glass below where Gail was examining a pipe stem. If it was old red glass, it would have been made with gold, and worth collecting to re-melt into something new. At the final tabletop reveal, your conjecture on the matte vs. shiny finish on some cod marbles was interesting. It makes sense that the more the bottles (and the cod marbles within) were re-used, the more worn they'd look; even the bottles. I also imagine the type of liquid within the bottles would impact how worn they'd get. The more acid based the drink was, the more it would react on the glass, surely. Again, a fun day on the tip, always enjoyable with you two.

  • @lindenbug

    I think melted glass makes the piece extra special! Like a work of art rather than a damaged specimen. Idk, I just love to look at them.

    Sorry i couldn't make it last night as i had to get up early this morning for a day out! I like all the bits and pieces that you found especially the Hare lead blob it was unusual. I thought about it for a while and maybe it could have been part of a run of them around a Victorian garden plant holder, the type thats an exaggerated wine glass shape? I love it when you bring in the frozen charlotte to play expecially with her disabled new friend aaaaaw shame her legs had come off 😟 Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing 😀❤

The lengths that girl goes to fossik for little gems in the undergrowth is above & beyond. You two must have exceptional eyesight, or have your eye 👁️ “well in” to find some of those teeny things. I adore the tiny beads.😊😊😊 My hands ache with a long forgotten muscle memory when I look at your poor cold reddened fingers. So, so 🥶

    • @NorthernMudlarks
      @NorthernMudlarks  4 месяца назад

      From Wikipedia: Crazing is a fine network of linear features which frequently precedes fracture in glassy thermoplastic polymers. Crazing occurs in regions of high hydrostatic tension, or in regions of very localized yielding, which leads to the formation of interpenetrating microvoids and small fibrils. If an applied tensile load is sufficient, these bridges elongate and break, causing the microvoids to grow and coalesce; as microvoids coalesce, cracks begin to form xx
