    My Dad, his father and grandfather and extended family all worked at the Woolwich Arsenal making guns back into the 1800's ............. My Dad was definitely at 'the arsenal' in the 1930's, he might even have used that mug! Thanks for the memory and so wonderful to see something so tangeable of a time long passed......... Great find. Enjoy your cuppa!

One story was about a sugar refinery or warehouse that was hit and the poor souls there were covered in burning sugar! On V.E. day, she was driving an ambulance and got caught in the throngs of happy people from Piccadilly Circus to Trafalgar Square!

    Hello Nicola, I love the music with each video and the wild life it's great how you put it all together. It's much appreciated with these times and feel like I'm there taking in the fresh air and finds. I love the fact using the mug, felt quite emotional. Thank you Nicola for taking the time to put these video's together. Love Micheline xx

    Hi Nicola, I’ve been complaining about not being
    able to see your latest video
    about the war time relics!
    Well I don’t know how I did it
    but it seems I got in through
    a back door!!! I really enjoyed
    the video!!! Actually I enjoy all
    your videos!!! Your the best on RUclips!!! My favorite of
    all your videos is the one you
    did In Cornwall!!!! It reminds me of where I grew up on
    Long Island in the states!!! Cheers! Thank you!!

    Finding the mug intact was fantastic, it's nice to have an historic cuppa, when I lived in Devon some years back a local secondhand shop had a lot of ex-prison crockery all marked with the HMP mark, I bought a dozen pint tea mugs from them to give to friends as gifts, the oldest of those was 1938 and purportedly came from HMP Dartmoor.
    If you get caught with the government pen, you could be transported to Australia!!

      Nicky - I'm from Texas and grew up in a place called White Settlement! It's a suburb of Fort Worth. When Ft. Worth was an army outpost back in the 1850s, it was a settlement among a few other indian settlements so it was called the White Settlement and the name just stuck.

    Nicola, many thanks for this video...I was meant to have arrived in the UK this morning for a 2 week stay in Oxford, where I intended to explore the non-tidal Thames...Hopefully next year! So I shall have to content myself with mudlarking videos...Please keep them coming!

    Cows are such fun caring critters.
    You have eagle eyes, I would go ahead with the clay pipes.
    A funny surprise the shell.
    Cheers with your tea.

    I am so touched by the stories that were sent and read in the last part of this video. I am grateful to the person who sent them and allowed Nicola to read. I love those little bits of personal history. Unless those memories are shared they are lost forever when that person is no more.
