Thanks so much for watching! Subscribe and hit the bell so you don't miss any of our videos :) Jewellery making is back in its usual Sunday 7PM spot from this Sunday !!! Nicole & Craig xo

So many memories of my time in Pittenweem bent over double looking for tiny treasures. I’d fill my pockets till they bulged with all my finds. I have a wee blue bead too and my granddaughter loves picking it out of my bowl of finds and admiring it. Lovely to watch this.

How lovely! Pittenweem is a great place for wee treasures - we must get back along soon! Its such a lovely thing to have that wee blue bead and see your fascination for them in your granddaughter - such a lovely thing! :D Thank you so much, best wishes, Nicole & Craig xo

Well you two are troopers going out in the cold wet weather. Cold is fine but when you add that wet drizzle it’s hard to get warm. Love the beads! Thanks for the history lesson Craig. Looking forward to your jewelry making on Sunday Nicole. Thanks for taking me along on this journey. Xxx

Thanks so much for coming along on this wee - chilly - adventure! Its so funny, we left home with the sun bright in the sky, then the closer we got to the bridges, the more the sun hid away behind the clouds. So glad you enjoyed it - see you on Sunday! :D Best wishes, Nicole& Craig xo

Thank you for braving the cold and wet weather for us, your bead’s are beautiful along with other wee thing’s you found. Take care, stay safe and well. See you Sunday 👏👏👍👍😍😍💖💖

Thanks so much Lynn! Oh Yorkshire would be nice , especially if there are beads and other treasures I have seen you find on instagram :) Hopefully we can travel a little further afield this year! x

I was actually feeling chilly just watching you two brave the inclement weather in this video. Mind you, there's also a very brisk west wind blowing the snow around outside my door. The temperature is -5C, so who knows what the wind chill is. Brrrrr! I'm doing about 50% on the "Can you see it" scale. LOL I'm sure I would do much better if I was actually there doing the scanning. The turquoise bead is the star find, I think. I'm looking forward to seeing you make it into a necklace on Sunday, Nicole. Bye for now.

Oh it was a cold and rainy day Noralee! But probably around 5C , so much warmer than -5C!!! It's so tricky to see anything in the grey mud - and I am sure we missed lots of treasures.... all the more reason to go back! I agree with you - the large turquoise bead was my favourite too and it made a lovely pendant for the Sunday video... see you then x

Yet another terrific video, thank you. It looks cold and wet, so well done on persevering! Great information as usual, and so many fascinating finds. This time for me the star item was the 1932 bottle stopper; don't know why! I wonder what other folk found especially interesting.

Thank you for going out on such a miserable day 🥶 I love your beads, I think it is so great that you can see them when they are so small, but colourful!

Thanks so much Siona! Oh we are hoping for Spring to come soon - it's really cold and very windy at the moment, with a named storm nearly every week! The beads made really lovely jewellery - you'll see on Sunday :) x

What a wonderful adventure! Thank you for braving the cold to bring us along! And, you braved a lot of mud and muck. Wow! The beads were all so amazing! I’ve never seen anything like the green one. The turquoise one was lovely, too. Did you use something special to clean it up? I loved the “can you see it?” segments, but I didn’t do too well today. Craig, what an interesting history of the little cemetery. Your history lessons are something that I really appreciate. Thanks for your work to make your channel interesting, educational, fun, and relaxing! Take care, especially with all of the storms that I hear have battered your area! ❤️🙏 Looking forward to Sunday, and jewelry making!

Thank you kindly Ruth! Goodness , it's so difficult to see anything in the grey mud - you can really only search for unusual shapes and the odd blue if you are lucky. The large turquoise bead was my favourite too and it made an amazing pendant for our Sunday video!. Cleaning is mainly a toothbrush and elbow grease and 'the pink stuff' ... Yes we had 4 named storms this year already, but I think storm Arwen was the strongest in our area with thousands of trees uprooted and households without power... See you Sunday! x

Wow Nicole you just found all kinds of goodies! I can’t believe two beans in one day! That one looked really pretty. There is another channel that goes on the beach and find Scottish glass. She was on some beach that had just scads of glass. It was everywhere. She wasn’t interested in pottery only glass and wee wee pieces. There were all different colors. It was just amazing. However she forgets she’s holding onto the camera and it makes you kind of sick to watch so you can’t watch for very long. Also passed over at Clay marble to get to very plain piece of clear glass. I nearly choked on whatever I was eating! Lol and I was hoping to see if you guys had been on that beach but I can’t remember the name of it. Anyway without being unkind, I would much rather watch your channel and you do! For many different reasons. Thank you so much. Love to both you and Craig💜🤟🏻😎🍀🇺🇸

It really was a great day for wee beads! We've no idea why this bay catches all the beads - its so tricky to find them in that gray mud though!! Oh!! We'd love to know which beach that was - we're not sure where it might be - it might be just across the water from where we were in this one! hmmm! Must go visit to find out!! haha!! We can't have those wee clay marbles being left all alone like that! :D Oh! wobbly camera is... well, yeah, it can bring on the sea-sick feelings! So glad you enjoy what we do! :D Thank you so much, and very best wishes, Nicole & Craig xo

Lovely video, I really enjoyed the the photo's showing how the places looked back in the day and what they look like now, it's good to see that they haven't really changed much. You live in a gorgeous place! The beads are beautiful 😀💗 x

I feel like I need a microscope to see the detail in the beads. Was the green cylindrical bead green all the way through? Was it uv glass? It is so pretty and to think of its history, and tumbling around on the ocean floor. That you can see it amongst all the other things in the sand, it is amazing.

Thanks so much Karen! There is a little section right at the end of the video with close ups we filmed at home because it was raining so much that we had to rush off the beach :) The green bead isn't UV (I'll double check!) ! The beads made amazing jewellery for our Sunday video! It's always such a treasure to find these tiny things after 50- 60 or a hundred years in the Sea... x

Hi guys. I have an idea. Next time you go to beady bay maybe check in the cracks in the rocks. I have heard that things like coins often get trapped in cracks like that. A pick helps a lot to extract them. Just a thought. I know I have teased you in the past about your accents but the truth is I love them. ❤️

@@scottishmudlarking I never would have guessed you were German. All I hear is a Scottish accent. Funny how we pick up on speach patterns when being around them long enough. After only one and a half days of being at an event in the United States I found myself speaking with the local twang and had to keep reminding myself to speak Canadian 😆

Love this channel, but I think this one was far to ‘stretched’ there were repeated shots of the bridges that started me fast forwarding. I think the ‘can you see it’ is too long as well. Can’t we see more of the actual mudlarking? Sorry to be critical.

So glad you like the channel - thank you so much! :D Some places are a wee bit easier to film in than others - North Queensferry, for all its loveliness, has those very dominant bridges, so they are pretty much in every shot above ground level - sorry it felt stretched - its good feedbackand we take it onboard always trying to make better videos each time! :D No worries, its constructive! :D Best wishes, Nicole & Craig xo
