      When I was a child my Grandmother had one like that pinned to a lampshade which I was terrified of because I thought the Spider was real.😆
      Her Spider pin was a dark green.

Alex, your find brought her back and her story, which needed to be retold so more people would learn of Amy! The spider is a story teller in many cultures, I found its appearance was more than timely! What a great video💐

    You really outdid yourselves with this video! In addition to the great finds, informative botany and entomology lessons, and terrific music, you shared the story (/stories!) of Amy Johnson with us, ensuring that an important pilot and woman will be remembered. Thanks so much! ❤❤ from Seattle.
    PS. When you found the fork this week, I was reminded that in previous videos, you had mentioned the possibility of making a wind chime from your found tableware. When you do, please be sure to show it to us. I'd love to see it!

    What fantastic treasures you unearthed, ladies. The spider brooch was creepy yet very unique and a cracking find. I loved the tiny little blue bottle and the airplane badge.
    We here in the States have a saying: "If you don't like the weather in [insert your state's name here], stick around a few minutes, it'll change." We don't have midges here, but we do have mosquitoes and they like the same conditions (no wind, humidity, etc) as midges do...they'll make you want to flee inside your house to escape from them. Miserable little so and sos.

      At the time, Amy Johnson was so well known and her exploits captured peoples' hearts, that in the UK, she had several songs written about her, the best known was "Amy, wonderful Amy" The chorus goes:
      Amy, wonderful Amy,
      How can you blame me for loving you?
      Since you won the praise of every nation,
      You have filled my heart with admiration.
      You can Google this, and even hear it here on RUclips.

I was surprised this morning to see you were still having this problem. It's strange the videos still appear on my feed, being that I'm no longer "subscribed" ...I check them every time and 99% of the checks are positive for unsubscribed AGAIN.
    I'm not complaining, it seems to be unfair to you two and the beautiful videos you produce. I can really see the details in the editing and how much time you spend with that...the music is always beautiful as well...

    What a tragic end to a brave and fascinating woman. Thank you for enlightening us about her great life story. I also love the spider pin. You had a great haul on the river.

    Gail will appreciate growing up with our mom's using Jergen's Lotion and Yardley English Lavender, and us getting Jean Nate for Christmas. I still use my Jean Nate in the summer. A real blast from the past like a Nat King Cole song.

    Amazing finds here! Can’t wait until you go back here next time. We have stinging nettle in Canada too but luckily they’re invasive so we CAN chuck ‘em 😁

    So many awesome finds this round. Alex, I had to look up and see what a midge was and they are some bitey little buggers, aren't they? I also couldn't wait and tried looking up Gail's spider brooch. I didn't find that particular one but WOW, who knew that spider brooches were such a big thing!!!

    Alex, do you know the song "Mama said there'd be days like this" ...? Looks like you are having a time! Happens to us all ... Au Courage, ma belle amie! Smudging your cheek and your face in response made me laugh out loud! ♥😊

    The long, thin metal item with the jagged edges looks like something you would wrap around wire, metal or pipe to secure it. You would cinch it around the metal and hold it fast by putting one of the tabs into the holes.

    Fabulous ladies, I love your videos. With the midges, cedar oil keeps bugs away and is completely natural. Also, and you may know these things, tea tree oil on the bites. Ugh, I hate midge bites, know them well. :( Love from DownUnder, Lynda

    Your mystery item reminds me of what we call a clipstrip here in the US. They are hung in stores with smaller items hooked on them, usually in the aisles. Picture a row of small toys affixed on cardboard hanging in a row down your item! It's probably not what it is but that was my first thought. Great video with great finds!

    Wow, some great finds. I can't believe that you found a spider brooch. I have collected vintage jewelry for years, and have several of them. I don't like spiders, but when they're in brooch form I do!
