Thanks for watching Mudlovers! Wanna see my best find this year? CLICK HERE ruclips.net/video/RCS8PF5zji0/видео.html 👍🏻🐾🧡
16 mins ish it the under part of a crab
It is one of my favorits as your facial expressions in the moment were adorable....in Chicago , this old lady waits for the ding... along with Nic's Tide Line..to tell me to grab History!!!!
@@victoriawest 6
its a whelk, every Londoner eats whelks, they are certainly british, pint of cockles and a few whelks with vinegar, luvly jubly
wheatsheaf tokens are usually bakers not pubs, symbol of bakers guild, also the co-op insignia
I think someone wanted to be part of a mudlarking video and planted their shell collection to see if anyone would feature it.
Haha maybe!
I had to do a double-take, I thought Vicks was Nic at first. Great job scoring that ring!!!
Haha. Her sister from another mister 👍🏻🐾🧡
It’s the Stripey shirt.😊
As always your extra work in editing, and well thought out camera angles, make sunday morning viewing a joy. Thank you for attention to detail ( and appreciation of little lives of creatures) have a great week.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate that 👍🏻🐾🧡
I think they were filming an episode of “Barnaby Crubdubbler: Foreshore Detective”.
🤣🤣
Haha. They commission anything these days 🕵️♀️
As always, a great adventure! The bit of shell you found looks like a crab under shell. I don't know if anyone else has commented as I know I'm late to the party :) great finds today!
Thanks Mudlover 👍🏻🐾🧡
@@Sifinds Female crab pad. Theirs are wider/spade shaped so they can carry their eggs. Males are thinner.
Yep. The "apron" off a crab.
Probably she was shedding her old shell as she grew so not necessarily dead, just on moved to a bigger :home:. the first shell is a waved whelk, Buccinum undatum. We have them in New England, I think they are on both sides of the Atlantic in cold waters.
Beads, garnets, pipes, Nelly & a Hedgehog.....couldn't get much better!
Aw thanks Thelka 👍🏻🐾🧡
Even watching your videos on holiday , dedicated fan right here🇪🇸🙋♂️
Have a lovely break!! xx
Happy holidays Josh! 👍🏻🐾🧡
At the end of your video we see your two cats surrounded by a bunch of feathers. Hopefully all is well with the chickens. Thanks for the video.
Yes all good. They mault now and again
At first glance Jules looked like Nicola due to her stripe shirt! Lol thought that it might be a mudlarking women's uniform. Great day, glad to come along.
You means Vicks? Yeah she does
the pale crustacean item is from the ventral abdomen plate of a crab
Ah thanks Martha. That makes sense! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Necklace was great and the trading coin came up brilliantly too. Was nice to meet Vicks, she has a look of Nicola lol. Great finds, interesting stories about the shells. Xx
Cheers Gaynor! She’s her sister from another mister 👍🏻🐾🧡
Si I think the first shell you found is a Welk shell, the second shell is sometimes called a turbo shell its worth about £20
Ah thanks Terri. That’s a steal. It’s beautiful 👍🏻🐾🧡
The ribbed looking shield creature as you call it, Is the bottom of a crab it's called the apron. And that's how you can tell if it's a male or female crab by the shape of the apron. 🦀
Ah thanks! 🦀
The movie there filming is "Si-finds the movie" and that seen is when Si makes his millions and he comes back to where it all started to relive his memories
💙🤣
That's a great title!😂
Haha! Will it be a Sci-Fi movie? 😉
Ahhh see what you did there 🤣🤣🤣
I agree with some of the others here. I don't think those shells that you guys found at night were from ballast. Sand dollars of that size are extremely hard to find intact. The shell with the spines (a snail called a lambis), the spines would have broken off if it had been used as ballast. The "creature from the deep" is part of the underside of a crab carapace know as the Pleon.
Wicked info! Cheers!
At first I thought it was a parasitic isopod that latches onto mud shrimps and eats them.
@@kevinwaters60 😮
I always loved the thrill of finding everyday forgotten treasure from the past when I was younger. Yesterday we took our puppy for his first splash in the sea and in the shingle was a broken glass bottle. I was going to put it in the bin when we went back to the car but then I realised it was a fab peice of an Aqua coloured bottle. No markings but plenty of air bubbles. It has a convexed panel on three sides . The forth side is straight.
Lovely! 👍🏻🐾🧡
What a beautiful ring Vicks found. Nice finds all around. As always thanks for a bit of history.
Cheers Susan!! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Terrific video. Thank you for actually "writing over" the letters on the traders token. I simply could never make out what it said even after stopping the video and having a good stare. Thank you for taking us along on your mud'venture.
My pleasure Lisa!! 👍🏻🐾🧡
As far as the shells are concerned, I have my doubts as to them being ballast. Those particular shells are hard to find - the sand dollar isn't rare, but hard to find intact - so I suspect someone got rid of a shell collection. Enjoyed this video, as always!
they looked too clean to have been ballast.
@@momtrips6783
Yes, and the really large whelk/conch appears to have had quite a bit of work done to produce those beautiful iridescent bands of color (the wide band around the body and the narrower band above it at the suture). I don’t know if that is simply a polishing process or if there is some cutting away of material followed by polishing? It doesn’t look like any natural shell I’ve ever seen, but I’m definitely not a shell expert!
@Susan Boon
Sand dollars are all over the beaches in the US. I’ve picked them up from Cape Cod to South Carolina to Florida in the East, on Texas gulf beaches and on the beaches of California.
I tend to agree
That shell is absolutely gorgeous! And her ring find was amazing, I love the old gold!❤Not a bad trader's token either!☺️
Cheers Jenny! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Hi Si, I think the 'creature from the deep', is actually the flap from the underside of a crab shell. Some unusual finds for you all on this hunt, but the traders token is a beauty, well done guys 👍
I was going to say the same thing!
Cheers Barbs! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Apron of the carapace of a crab👍
That first shell was lovely!
Right!
Random Hedge Hog finds large pile of cat food on the fore garden. Luck in the muck.
🦔 🐈⬛
Love Nellie, most amazing Si, Sunday almost complete, now onto Nicola. I think your little creature might be an isopod, your necklace lovely. Keep going strong and see you next mudventure. 😊🐘🍁🇨🇦👣
Cheers Marion! 👍🏻🐾🧡
I'm very jealous! I was in South Florida for a week and couldn't find a sand dollar !! The necklace is stunning! Nelson is very handsome
Cheers Angela! 🐈⬛ Nelson says thank you too 👍🏻🐾🧡
The shell you asked about is a spider conch and his second shell is a Murex. Awesome traders token and upcycled necklace, thanks SI.
Awesome. Thanks Debs! 👍🏻🐾🧡
OMG! What a terrific video! I can't believe Vick's luck finding that gold ring - and thought it so funny that it wasn't in the review at the end because it was still firmly on her finger. It's not going anywhere!!! Those seashells were totally awesome. I can't believe they were simply ship's ballast, because they are so beautiful. You'd pay upwards of £30 for each of those in a home decor store! The trader's token was such a great find - loved how you explained the mis-spelling on it. And as for that gorgeous necklace you've made - think I'll be making a bid! I loved seeing that you put food out for your hedgehog - a man after my own heart :) Thanks Si - I just love your channel!
Thanks Di! Yes the shells were a lovely surprise! 👍🏻🐾🧡
The ring, is that Welsh gold?, it’s pink like wash gold, not much of that available these days, the queen has some, used it in Kate and Williams ring. 🇺🇦💍
Congrats to Vicks pin the beautiful ring, she reminds me of Nicola
Vicks and Nice 😊😊👍
Very true - thanks Cath
The garnets look like dried up raisin sorry😂Love the kittys🐾🐈⬛🐾
That unknown "creature" I believe to be an "apron" from a crab. If I'm wrong, sorry.
I love your videos and look forward to Sunday mornings. It's great to see all your cool finds.
Thanks and have fun!
Cheers Pat! 👍🏻🐾🧡
You are right, the underneath of a crab carapace..
Yes, it is from a female crab
That chap walking along I was looking for his lost scraper. 😂
The gold ring was gorgeous. Loved it all.
The little Crustation is the flap off the bottom of a Crab"..
great videos thank you...
That gold ring was awesome!
Right! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Lovely finds, I wonder what people will be finding in 200 years time from our generation, probably anything made of plastic!
Sadly yes, drinks bottles or similar
Love the random hedge hog in your garden, very funny and cute. You guys had some awesome finds, love all the sea shells, and the Italian pottery has a very nice design.👍✌💖
Cheers Mudlover!
Good finds. The gold, those SHELLS and your lovely garnet necklace you made are my faves 👍🏼
Cheers Sylvia 👍🏻🐾🧡
Sunday cheers Si 🍻🍻
Cheers Craigo 👍🏻🐾🧡
Sunday is complete 🥰
Cheers Millie 👍🏻🐾🧡
Vick’s ring, Jules’ astonishing slip decorated piece and your token. What a wonderful outing!
You rocked it! Great necklace!
Cheers Cate
Brilliant as always Si. Absolutely love the shells and your upcycled garnet necklace. Looking forward to next week's video 😊
Cheers Gill! 👍🏻🐾🧡
@ 16:35 I'm pretty sure that was a parasite... One of those things that attaches to the fishes tongue but idk for certain.
Ooh err thanks 👍🏻🐾🧡
Two terms for londoners... 1.mouth and trousers.
2. Cheeky chappies.
These lads are the latter, comparing the size of their pipes.
Enjoyed 👍
👌🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 on the 100’s traders token...score Si! Woohoo 😁 that’s a score on the gold ring too
Love parting shots of Nellie.🖤
🐈⬛ 🧡🙏🏻
Pick it up then! You guys are a little pushy but mannerly 😂 I love it!
Fabulous finds as always Si. Love the necklace you made too. My Ollie sends a big meow-shout-out to English cousin Nelly 🐾🐾 😊 xx Teresa 🇦🇺❤
Aww thanks. And meow back 🐈 🐈⬛
Wow, that is a gorgeous necklace! 😻💛
it's a bit funny that shell ballast from tropical ports are found on the Thames..and at tropical ports one can find stone ballast from Europe along the shores there..indeed at Havana there were ballast merchants that would gather these stones and supply vessels with them..ive several in my garden that I've found
That cool. Thanks for sharing! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Watching you while I'm on CV quarantine. Almost over it.. But always love watching you!!! Wonderful finds! I absolutely love the Hedgehog! Reminds me of Beatrix Potter
Cheers Linda! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Simon great video 👍🏻🙂 ahwa sweet Nelson 🐾👣🧡
I’m back home and catching up on your videos. 😆, you guys and your jokes. I agree, that spot does look like a pipe graveyard. That’s such a pretty blue bead, and the faceted bead is too. Beautiful old ring Vicks found. The swirl pattern on the earthenware piece is lovely. Necklace is lovely
The traders token is beautiful and i love the necklace
Blimey! Now the conch shell. That’s a score for sure on th3 shore 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Your 'boys talk' does make me snigger (well, I've got that sort of mind). Amazing finds. I'm with Jules, I love a good pot sherd. Lovely to see Nellie and the hedgehog.
Haha, has to be done
Incredible night larking!! You should do that more often. Those shells were incredible. This video had a lot of my favorite things! Thank u❤. I’m bingeing again. Lol. I’ve been sick for a week but I finally feel great again. Your videos have kept me entertained!
Les Meilleurs🔬🐚Murex🐚,,Toujours un véritable plaisir🎬Alex France🍷🍖🍀💪🙏🌌
Merci Alex! 👍🏻🐾🧡

I think the "end of a spoon" looks like part of an ancient eye carving
Love from the old lady in Texas USA god bless you❤ always and forever
Cheers Pat!
Great day for you guys outdoors again can't wait to see you again on the hovercraft in a long time Simon awesome fines for the mudlark 👍🍺🍺
Lovely shells and increadable sand dollar.
Hello 👋 from New York USA you guy's Found some Amazing Finds my Favorite Definitely Was the Glass Beads 🧿 and the the piece of Pottery with the Castle 🏰 on it Thank you for bringing me along with you I can't wait to see what you Find next ☺️🙂
I'm glad you stitched in the night lark. The riverfront lights are always awesome to see. Great find on the trader's token. It cleaned up nice 👍
I kept waiting for you to poke your finger cleaning up the garnets, because that's what I would have done 😆
Haha, nearly Jim!
Very cool to find garnets already with drilled holes. You made a Beautiful necklace.
Cheers Carol! 👍🏻🐾🧡
You’re a kind man!
Could not believe the Thames water was looking that clear! Great video.
Only in the rock pools x
WOW...I need to move to Britain from CANADA ...LOV watching the finds ..so fun
First chance to get to one of my fave channels today, always chills me out 😎
That was great fun - and the necklace at the end was a thing of real beauty. The star of the show was, though, Random the Hedgehog.
Haha 🦔Thanks Daz 👍🏻🐾🧡
Top of my list when I come to the Thames is ‘beads’ - I hope to eventually find enough to make a Thames bracelet 🤞🏼 although I know this will probably take me years!
Congrats on the traders token- it’s gorgeous!! ❤️
Cheers Beth! Now that’s an idea!
Love the upcycle!!! 😍
Do love Nellie. What a great video Si.Those finds are amazing.
Cheers Sheena👍🏻🐾🧡
Awww...that hedgehog was so cute. But Nellie was cuter.
Haha, he says thanks
Oooh...nice rough garnet 👍🏽👍🏽
You guys are bring back history loving it 😍
Love your Hedgehog...xo
Gig a Double take - thought Vics was Nic for a minute! They are both Beautiful gals.
That pot base would look lovely with a big candle on 😊
It would!!
The random hedgehog just thrown in there! 😂
He was too cute 👍🏻🐾🧡
Wonderful video. Some great finds. Fabulous job on the traders token. Nelson again....so cute. 🐱
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
wow, those garnets are huge, necklace came out real nice!
Love the closer high quality of your videos 🥰 Keep um coming 🌲🦉🌲
Great Larking adventures always, I just love the finds on the Thames, it would be a dream to get to Lark On the Thames, Great video SIMON I enjoy 😉
Aw thanks Mandy! 👍🏻🐾🧡
I live in Florida and even here finding conch shells in that beautiful condition and a sand dollar that big is pretty rare. I couldnt speculate to how they got in the Thames but they are a rare find anywhere imo.
Perhaps someone threw them away to get back at someone who did them wrong. I hate to think that, but anything's possible!
Brilliant finds people, loving the necklace and the ring but the shells and pottery pieces are special. Thanks si and all x
Oh I love Nelson!
I live those rough drilled garnets they are fabulous!!
19:36
Like a shot of a professional archeological dig :)
Good job! 👍
Cheers Mudlover!
Great finds! Thanks for sharing!
What! Ok I need to watch this video without commenting ...but those SHELLS are a ace Find! ...night time definitely a whole different scores
Brilliant video as usual Si. Thanks.
Cheers John! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Love that piece!!
