Dear Si & Friends, I suffer from chronic pain and often I can’t sleep at night. When I can’t,I turn to you, Nicola & the Northern Mudlarks to see me through the worst. I love watching your videos, I spent 5 yrs in London, partly doing my post graduate studies many years ago in History, so you can imagine how much I love some of your discoveries and their provenance. I’m also a bit of a maker and crafter, so the upcycling is right up my alley. Thank you for all the time you take to make such fun videos. Know they are much appreciated.🌟🌟😊🌟🌟

I have always been very active, i love walking , gardening, i used to bottle dig , and metal detect, but i now have arthritis in my feet , and can't walk far at all . For the same reasons, i watch si doing his mudlarking, i love to watch you dig the things up and bring them back to life, you have a real talent for that . I also find your vids very calming and relaxing , though the vid with you on the beach starkers ! was very entertaining . lol I went to bed chuckling ! Keep it up . xx

Simon, About sewage, here's my story. We had a septic (sewage) tank on our farm. Every so often a service would come out, remove the concrete lid and pump it out. It fascinated me as a child, I couldn't wait to see them do their thing. So after watching for a bit in the morning I left. I came back around noon and this fellow had a long rod and was poking and stirring the sludge. "What are you doing?", I asked. He said, "I dropped my coat in there and am trying to retrieve it". "Surely you can't wear it after that?" I asked. "No", he said, "But my lunch is in the pocket" Not quite your treasures, eh:) Cheers, Rik Spector

I think your "gold ingot" looks like the back of a silver clothes brush. My dad used to have a set in a leather case: it had hair brushes, clothes brushes, a little container for cologne, etc. The clothes brushes were the same size and shape as the "ingot" you found (obviously the main body of the brush was wood, with the bristles inserted into it, and the silver part was just a shell or cap - like the one you found - that covered the brush-back). [Edit; by the way, I think the "horse" on the cap-badge is actually a lamb.]

Hi, Si, Robert from Pensacola here. Your floral broach is Art nouveau . Art Nouveau generally involves sweeping curves and a general nature theme - flowers, birds, etc. The distinguishing features of Art Deco are simple, clean shapes, often with a “streamlined” look; ornament that is geometric or stylized from representational forms. Art nouveau was primarily from 1890 to around 1910, but was still there in the 20s.It was old hat by the 30s and was about gone in jewelry. Love you, and have a little crush on Nicola LOL

Really enjoyed the post today as I do all of them. The tea strainers we're fun to see. Thimbles are always fun for me to see. I started collecting thimbles a few years back. Thank you for the Lark in the Muck 💜

After 59 years I am still digging things out of the ground every spring / summer when I do a new flower bed or deep dig an area. From square nails, to strap on skates, old glass, metal toys, but my favorite are definitely the marbles. from baked clay to swirly colours. Cheers!

Loved the Pendant coupling that holds the marble. Wendy is very talented .

Too late for me to enter!!😆 Wendy did a beautiful job with the brooch. It’s a design that I love to collect on vintage compacts, brushes, mirrors, lipsticks, and I think I have a few either pendants or brooches that are vintage that is designed like it as well. I gifted to my sister a beautiful small compact and it had this other basket design and I just love that design as well. Because she carries a small purse it was just the right size compact for her to have. Very interesting fines today because I love when you find different vintage make up pieces. If anything I would mudlark for, it would be old compacts, lipsticks, and things I love that I collect. I just find them beautiful!! Great video!!🌊

I’ve only been watching your channel. A few months. I was watching Nichole White then found your channel. Very interested channel. I love the history you are able to find.

I had a friend who lived in the oldest part of Boise Idaho USA. In the 1970s they dug up a bunch of outhouses from the early to mid 1800s. Housewives used to throw entire sets of tableware, kitchen cutlery, and china in their outhouses. A lot of treasures were found. #shared

Brilliant episode, as always! Having worked in archaeology, I share your continuous excitement of never knowing what one is going to discover.
