Watch me find a WW2 shell case!
The revolver is a Harrington & Richardson Safety Hammer Double Action in 32 S&W.
I came here from Nicola's channel, I'm really loving your videos and am having a binge watch of them tonight...but I had to laugh, Nicola is always so gentle when excavating finds and there you are literally stabbing the light with your trowel lol >_<
The Thames is like a giant treasure chest. It's hard to believe the amazing things you can find there and the diversity of items. I lived in London for nearly four years in the early 2000s and you can bet if I'd had any concept of mudlarking the Thames I'd have been there at every opportunity! We don't have this kind of concentration of treasures here in NZ so I will continue to just be envious of these videos! So enjoyable, thank you! Love the clean ups and upcycling too, and 'meeting' all of the great people you mudlark with in your videos. What a great bunch of people 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I love how you pick up a variety of items and not just one type, then give the history if it can be found. Makes for a great video, thank you!
Another FABulous spot you found before it gets smashed and gone forever. Just think, those lovely items, padlock, gun, green post top, cutlery, etc, etc, would never have been discovered. Thank you for rescuing them and for sharing them with all us armchair mudlarks! Hooroo from Down-under. 😁🦘
At
You teapot . . . Collected you 😂.
Love the padlock! I am imagining in my mind that it was on a sailors locker safeguarding worldly possessions. And the pencil! Neato!
Great as always, I really enjoy the historical context you provide for your finds.
Love it when you dig the history out and research it , brill ! Keep em coming 👍
I've seen some lovely wind chimes made of spoons and forks hanging from metal teapots, strainers, etc.
Really enjoyed watching you and Stu. You both had lots of cool finds. The way you clean-up everything and present them is greatly appreciated. The histories were interesting. Thank you Si <3
My Dad worked at Harrington and Richardson's. I still live in Worcester, Massachusetts . What a find! Thanks for the memory 👍💗✌️
Some lovely finds there, amazing once the mud is washed off and things are cleaned up. You must have a good eye. Thank you.
I have to say, it's amazing and satisfying to see the finds cleaned up: a wonderful historical repository of finds! I'm watching you videos, by the way, in the early hours of the morning (serious jetlag after visiting family in the States), and thoroughly enjoying some 'me time'!
Wonderful finds an.
you should bring an empty 5 gallon bucket with you on your searching. It can hold all your extra tools as you journey from the house but will also serve as a wash basin for cleaning off the mud. Then when you head home it can carry your finds
The flask that you picked up at the start was very modern, the ground glass joint was for connecting to other articles of lab ware usually a condenser or a glass bend. Usually made of borosilicate glass, Pyrex or similar.
Wow, great finds, thank you for posting.
