    More stylish smoking with a chicken than standard vaping perhaps? There is a Japanese story which may help with the I-broke-my- own- stuff-accidently Blues: There was once a Zen priest who took great pride with a special tea bowl that he showed to a young acolyte. Unfortunately in a moment of distraction while showing it he dropped it and broke it! He immediately became very upset. The acolyte watching this said: 'No need to get upset. It was time for the bowl to die'. I have found this idea very helpful emotionally for those who are obsessed with keeping stuff undamaged on their watch, like myself. Things, like people, eventually die and the time for that is simply not in our hands (literally). I am not always sure this story works but I try it anyway! You are a wonderful film maker.

      Diane, I can echo your comment. I saw her thumbnail in my play list and was curious (it was from Nov 2021- today is 9 March 2022!). It's not just entertaining, right? It's so incredible to see such historical finds!

    Hi, Nicola. Susan here from Shelburne. We DON'T have snow drops and daffodils blooming here! Rather, we have had storms for the last 4 days (no school for Thursday or Friday), with whiteout conditions today. Still, it was lovely to watch your video, and I was especially thrilled to see the pipe bowl. As you know, I love a challenge, and I did find a Frederick Parnell in the 1911 census, listed as a tobacco clay pipe manufacturer. Aged 29, he had a wife Anne (30), and two children -Alexander was 3, and Maggie was 2. they also had a 17 year old servant. They were living on Victoria Street, East Ham. Frederick was listed as an employer, so it wasn't a one-man business. When I brought up his records for 1901, Frederick was living with his parents in Essex, West Ham, Plaistow (that's how it's listed as a region) where he was a grocer's assistant. His dad was a coachman. Sadly, the next info I could find was the 1939 register, where Annie was living with her children, but was a widow, living on her own means. Annie outlived Alexander, and neither he nor Maggie ever married. Someone was financially astute, however, as Maggie died with a net worth of almost 124000 pounds.

    I grew up in Texas, where Lipton tea was the only brand of tea we knew and iced tea was the only kind of tea we drank. I had one of my first cultural awakenings in college when the first English person I ever met repeatedly referred to it as ‘Crapton Tea.’

    I worked at a hospital as a porter, it had been a naval hospital during WWII, in the old theatre suite was loads of unused poison bottles still in the boxes. We were told to get rid of them all. Poison bottles were also ribbed so that you could tell they contained poison just by feel in the dark. 29 could be the The 29th (Worcestershire) Regiment of Foot

    Always such great music to go with Great Tideline Adventures! Great finds as well. So much history in a broken piece of pottery that gives it very special value. Bits and pieces used by our ancestors that contain many vibrations of times gone by. So Amazing the Thames and all those interesting places you adventure in! Kind Thanks to You Nicole and David as well! A wonderful video I’ve watched on this sunny February day here in Pennsylvania. Snow drops are in bud here and the daffodils will soon follow. Seems this warm season is one many are looking forward to. I’ve already seen flocks of Robins. Much Love, Light, Peace and Joy of Being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania

  • @aengusmacnaughton1375
    @aengusmacnaughton1375 2 года назад +14

    Excellent drone footage -- and it's neat to see the islands/shoals/marshes around the two forts -- probably very different now compared to back when they were in use. It says a lot for how well and strong they were built that they are still so much intact, having been decommissioned after World War I -- and not really being kept up since then. They look like they should last, uncared for, for many more years....

  • @glennaw1547

    Hello Nicola! For some reason I’m only just watching this video, (usually they’re consumed voraciously as soon as you release them!) and am absolutely fascinated by these incredible sites! How very kind of Geoff to let you have access to his drone footage. Hopefully he will attract more connections from your endorsement. Your work is always a delight, and I completely empathise with your feelings about these special places. Sometimes you just feel as if you’ve really ‘come home’.

    Bless your soul! What a super unique and interesting hobby! I grew up in Chicago suburbs and spent my days kicking around the desplaines River and tributaries, up to the Chicago river back down to the Mississippi fishing, catch and release, and taking in the beauty the forest preserves offer. Helping any creatures critters or people in need. Mud Mudlarking, I love it! I've never been across the pond but I'm adding this to my bucket list should ever be in Europe!

    I was pondering if squirrel would be alright in that storm, so was happy seeing it wind surfing the bird feeder at the end.😊 Always enjoyable to see your adventures out on the River Medway. Along the lines of food for the imagination, to think of the conversations that took place over tea/coffee from those wonderful cups. As always, all the very best to you.

    @rockreader4298 2 года назад +1

    What a Fantastic video, cram-packed with treasures. Nic, you started this vid off with something I adore and that would have to include the person that sported it between his lips (giggle). Aww I Love your precious, tideline art toy. I have a miniature of the clear triangle shaped, with the rounded off edges, that is a poison bottle. Perhaps your left-behind, large bottle contained something not to be taken, made by the same company as my mini replica of yours? Hmm .... I'm wondering if you wanted to preserve the color that a clay pipe is when pulled out of the mud, if you could? Some of them are such terrific colors.
    A Cool way to display your unique, assorted pottery pieces of the some-what smaller size, is to apply a fairly strong magnet to the backside of it, with (hot melt glue because it's not necessarily permanent). Then arrange them onto a framed (to protect you from sharp edges) sheet of stainless steel and hang on the wall of your art studio. The pieces can also be re-arranged as others are added. ( : Big ((Hugs))

    The Thames toy adoption plan makes you just like King Moonracer, (from the Rankin/Bass Christmas production of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer). King Moonracer was in charge of collecting up and giving sanctuary to all the unwanted toys on his Island of Misfit Toys. But, of course, you are Pipe Queen Nicola Moonracer. Anyway, the King did ask Santa for his help in distributing all the unwanted toys to any boy or girl who would love and care for them. So, good luck to you! I will definitely volunteer to house a critter.

    SPECTACULAR VIDEO!!! It was an amazing day for you, everywhere you looked there was something specifically for you. It seems like that day was set up for you. The rooster pipe was made for someone with confidence or someone who was a jokester. I collect poison bottles and your poison bottle is breathtaking and valuable. I have a naval poison bottle too. I loved your music selection, it was so lovely to hear. Thank you for taking us along to enjoy your experience. Take care and be safe. ✌

    Thank You. A Wonderful escape if only for a few minutes. What a Beautiful place. I'm in P.A USA. I'VE been going to flee markets etc. looking for a Cobalt Blue bottle. It will happen someday. Glad you found some. No bottle dumps around here. When it warms up I'll go to the rivers edge.

    And it is a Jellycat bunny as well. Nice to see the 18ct gold ring, I was hoping you would take it with you. Shame that the diamond has been removed.

    I have a fun book recommendation. The Raven Spell by Luanne Smith is about a pair of sisters who happen to be witches. They spend the early morning hours mudlarking for precious objects to sell in their second-hand shop. Some nifty magic is involved.

    I have been reading about the River Thames and it’s incredible history. King Henry the II and all of that. I can’t believe I can be so lucky as to be able to watch you and all of your mates discovering and picking up it’s history. Thank you so much. Stay safe.

    I had a lovely medicine bottle like that. I found it in a bottle dump. Mine said Ballard Snow Liniment Co., St. Louis, MO. Sadly, I broke mine, too!
