Clear, articulate speaking, devoid of far too oft-repeated clichés, is a rare thing indeed these days. Thank you, Tom for restoring my faith in the spoken word.

Ah, the blissful voice, scenery and music. Exactly what dark Sunday nights need. Thank you Tom.

The large round 'onion bottle' shaped vase would make a beautiful display bottle for marbles if you were to shave the top off to make it smooth and include some fine led micro lights Tom. Thank you for sharing and taking us along with you! Take care x

You should definitely return to the second site, your complete codd bottle is there for sure!

07:34 I pine for more than just a vicarious connection to all the British mudlarkers I've been following. Belonging is an essential part of being human, & there's been a dearth of that in my life. I've mostly made my peace with that, being now a senior citizen, but there are still very poignant moments, such as your description of the friend you've yet to meet, Amanda Bell.

Noralee, we are lucky to have Tom aren't we?! I think about what this time would be like without some of our latest inventions. I love my quiet and am picky about what I watch, just remember, you do belong, with all of us. I will think of you during the next outing. Peace and comfort to you from the US, be safe and well.

I fell down a mudlarking rabbit hole, landed here, and praise be to all the angels for it. This has been a balm to soothe my troubled soul.

Sigh, even if you found nothing at all I would greatly enjoy the walk listening to you talk and play, looking at the beautiful scenery and hearing the soothing sounds of the river. The bottles are lovely as well and, as always, I appreciate the environmental clean up. Thank you!

Thank you Tom for your soothing voice, the beautiful scenery, the great finds and the wonderful sound of rushing water. Your videos are always over too soon.

I think so too. I'm hoping I can make a replacement for what's lost with resin, and hopefully I can find a dye that will match the colour. I've got a cap for it, I found it at that dumpsite the time I visited before, and it fits perfectly... so perfectly it might even be from that bottle! 🙂

I was thinking that with some skill you could cut out the decorative sides and make two amazing sun catchers. Do you know SiFinds? Fellow mudlark out of London. He is quite skilled at cutting broken bottles with his tile saw.

I love the piece of tile with the autumnal colours!

Sorry I’m a day late but really looking forward to this video now!

I've got a very similar bottle to the Art Deco one you found, mine is light milky blue. It still has its label on and filled with Yardley talcum powder. It dates from the 1930s.

The uranium glass bottle would also look good with some sort of polymer clay mutant climbing out of the broken part. Some of the verdigris metal sheets would look amazing on the cover of a journal. Perhaps a journal of your mudlarking and bottle dump activities.

Sheep on the snow in the pastureland of England makes a picture perfect Christmas card 🙂

Mr. Tom, You help me in a very special way, I suffer from chronic pain and when my levels get high I pop on one of you videos as I wait for the medications to kick in. Between the beautiful scenery and your very soothing voice, It help me hang on until the meds. do their job. Thank you, Lisa

Hi Lisa, I'm here for a similar reason. At the moment I have to lie down most of the time due to pain, and a viewer of another channel (Atomic Shrimp- also highly recommended!) sent me here. I really enjoy these videos, it's almost like being able to go out myself. And his quiet, storytelling voice is relaxing, isn't it? I wish you a speedy recovery (if possible) and as many pain-free moments as possible!

Hi Tom, it was a treat to be taken to two dumpsites and i enjoyed it thoroughly! The view outside your window is spectacular, looks like a painting. You have been blessed by all those gifts and i am so happy for you, you certainly deserved it. Take care and stay safe, Tammy🌻

Ahhh nothing like a lively Tom Burleigh video after a long day - always so relaxing and such great finds along the river! Wish that UV bottle was in one piece but I am sure you'll restore it to its former glory :) Thanks for another great video... Waving from Scotland, Nicole & Craig

Thank you Tom. Definitely have missed your videos. Love your sense of humor- you make me laugh. A video searching the deep pools with a viewing bucket would be really interesting. Stay safe. Ladybugs are considered good luck.

I would be in my absolute element, all those tiny bottles, love to have all of them.

Tom, my wife and I thoroughly enjoy your videos and particularly your commentary and wonderful dry humour! We are trawling through all your videos which, along with those from the Northern Mudlarks and Kit & Caboodle, give us hours of enjoyment. You certainly live in a superb part of England. As you wade through those beautiful rivers we think you may benefit from the acquisition of some waders thereby eliminating the risk of flooding your ''gummies'', Australian term. Your collecting of trash from the rivers deserves recognition.

I have been ill for a bit and am now well enough to get on KZread and I immediately hunted you up and have been binge watching your latest video's! I needed the calming sound of your voice and the peaceful walk in the woods! I love the little bottles, so sweet. Until next time, stay safe and hold those you cherish close! ~Jen

16:18 Whoa Nelly-Belle!!! Glass disease is a real thing?!! Who knew? Well, other than Tom Burleigh, I mean. LOL

Oh I love hearing you talk and watching you explore. Thank you for taking my tension away.

While I started watching your videos for the finds, I mainly love the respect you have for the environment. You’ve taught me so much about the impact of dump sites and even invasive plant species! I also love how varied your interests are. There’s certainly something for everyone on your channel. Your videos are so relaxing, especially after a stressful day. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into your channel. I haven’t been able to leave the house since the start of the first lockdown, so your videos really help to fill in the gap left from larking. Best wishes, Ellie.

I couldn't wait to watch/listen to this video, I saved it until I went to bed. You never disappoint Tom! Thank you and please continue these as long as its safe for you to do so. Blessings!

OK, watching now. Excited for a new Tom Burleigh video!

Wonderful view Tom and those sounds nature makes!!!

27:24 I think I saw something very similar in a mudlarking video I watched yesterday. It was in Wales, which will probably give you a big hint as to whose video it was. It's very beautiful. :D

The tube thing with the large hole in the centre looks like part of an old greenhouse heater

The cylindrical thing looks to me like the top of a paraffin heater - usually used in greenhouses. It brings back memories of visiting my grandparents house in the Midlands in winter, the house stinking of paraffin fumes from the small heaters heating the landing and upstairs bedrooms.

A soul satisfying journey. I noticed the richer color of the bottles on your thumbnail, beautiful. Thanks for making that adventure possible.

Love the beautiful stream and your description! So relaxing! Thanks for taking us on your journies!💞

Lovely opening scenes. I think that the onion bottle would have made a lovely lamp. The mirrored bottle appears to be the inner bottle of a thermos. The walk along the river and the music accompanying it was wonderful.

Beautifully done. Thank you Tom.

Thank You for taking Me on an enjoyable and educational walk- Your videos are a nice part of my evening . Looking forward to the next. Seasons greetings and good tidings to You and Yours.

Hello from Oklahoma. I recently enjoyed an adventure you, G ayle and Alex took. I have named you The Walking Encyclopedia. You are a National Treasure. Thanks for increasing my world, Barb

It was so good to see you back mudlarking. The wonderful cool water and soothing voice brought me such pleasure and happiness. Thank you for sharing with us.

I love listening to you speak so clear and relaxing, love the river scenery, the bottles at that dump certainly are a beautiful colour.

Thank you for posting this. I really needed a walk in the wood and interesting finds to make my night/day a brighter. Thank you!

Hi Tom very beautiful mudlarking I really enjoyed this video amazing finds thank u Tom hope u well take care 👣

Tom I have watched your videos over the past few months since subscribing to your channel.Your content is always quite interesting and though I live on the other side of the world to you, I find it quite educational. I do love the fact that you are happy to leave items for other larkers that you may already have , a very admirable trait. I hope this pandemic is over really soon , good luck to you ! cheers from Dave

So beautiful Tom, a bit of a heat headache from the 100+ Degree Fahrenheit and your soothing voice with the wonderful river sounds offering a bit of respite! When I am in a bit of pain your voice, your music, the cracking of the twigs underfoot, the clink of the bottles always relaxes my aching brain releasing the blinding pain. You are better than any painkiller!

Aw, thank you Nancy, I'm sorry you're suffering with the heat. It's a bit like that here but I'm managing to avoid most of it by working downstairs where it's cooler.... though it will be headache central regardless here before the forecast thunderstorms if they materialise. I'm glad my videos can give you a respite from pain, and I hope the heat and your headache dissipate soon.

The uranium glass bottle is fantastic, even if you do not make it a "prosthetic" shoulder it would be a lovely sight in a window. enjoyed so much your ramble, not able to do that myself due to "bubble" hiding for work. Being designated essential not because we see the terribly sick but because of what we do for the people who care for them. It is late night here and your voice is very soothing before sleep and hearing the water burble along makes a pleasant good night. Stay well, take care and thank you.

38:00 I watched both his tiling videos, on your recommendation, & am now a subscriber. I think you have an esthetic sense that is developed enough that anything you make will be wonderful to look at.

Hi Tom. There's a tree, a pool of water, a few rocks and look out Tom there is a pokey shrub for eye removal! Glass bottles seemed to be in abundance that day. Blessings

What an amazing view!! I love the color of bottles and then that beautiful view... in the back ground! Thank you for sharing this place with us. I can't wait to see what is next!!!

Tom, Your river(brook) walk brought back memories of the brook(North Branch of the Metedeconk River) which delineated the eastern edge of our 27 acre farm. It had a warm dark color created by it's Iron rich water , and in the late forties and fifties was home to fresh water clams and other creatures which eventually disappeared due to pollution from large housing developments which changed the rural farm nature of our township. In my neighbors farm field , full of wild strawberries, I found a very large box turtle in 1960. On it's underside was carved, Lt. Opey Y co 189?. I never researched the name, perhaps someone from the Spanish American war? I almost brought it home but I didn't, It deserved to be left in peace. It was amazingly old then and I don't suppose it survived long enough to feel the encroachment of "civilization". Your walks show the cycle of life, rural to industrial and back again, but wonder if you ever encounter wildlife along your paths. Cheers, Rik Spector

Wonderful finds! Such a beautiful area there. When you were talking about a metal craft object, a image came to mind of old copper and brass shaped into flowers on copper pipe stems and made into a sculpture and perhaps also a water fountain , water running down over the metal flowers or bowls .It's just a thought.

I am attracted to your calm and love the bits... blue glass ! Marvelous 💛💫

Thanks Tom for great video. It never ceases to amaze me just how many glass bottles can be collected. I prefer glass for packaging, it's better than plastic. Be good to have a new glass smelter business again.

It must be so exciting to be the first one to visit a bottle dump. Lucky you! Can't wait to see what you'll find there when you return to it. And I love to hear the story of the bridge one day, I love history.

Thank you Tom🇨🇦☮️

I have just recently discovered your channel and I admire it. The combination of cleanup (something I do myself at the rhine river), mudlarking and handcrafting is very entertaining and I enjoy the way you narrate the video. It keeps me engaged and gives me feeling of participation in the situation. I also do find your dumbsites very rich. During my cleanups I find heaps of modern garbage and find it amazing if I discover a bottle stopper or even a plastic shampoo bottle from 1955. Gives me a little envy for your locations.

Once again you make a serene moment for me which I deeply appreciate. I am pleased your second site location appears to be promising. I am excited at the thought of future returns there. Also the possibility of Springtime foraging is very appealing.

Thank you Tom for a lovely meander along the river, it's so lovely to change the scenery. Your narration really adds to the flow of the video. At one point your hushed tones seemed to become quite like David Bellamy through the undergrowth. Ha ha. Shame you don't have a pack horse to carry your load. Love those wee bottles though, irresistible.

Wow. Fabulous view from your window! 😌. 🇺🇸😎🇺🇸

Your videos remind me of when my daughter and I used to hunt for treasures in our little bit of the river Dee. We had a wonderful summer doing it in 2016 .

Beautiful footage of the water and your adventures Tom, lots of lovely bottles and treasures. The colours of Autumn in contrast to the vegetation that is still green is stunning. Some nice china treasures amongst the bottles too -would love to search an area like this with you! Beautiful views of the snow on the hills from your window too.
