Diana air rifles were made in Germany, that looks very like a Diana Model 1, so could have been made as early as 1920 , at the latest the 1940s. Alex, that thing hanging from the light fitting in the caravan is a pomander, a type of air freshener.

Diana mod 1 and bsa jaguar ithink would love to have them for restoration

Happy New Year! That shed was just so full of old goodies! Thanks, Alex, Steve, and of course, Ed!

Reminds me of some places I would explore as a kid. Newspaper of 1949, three years after the big war ended. Because of the war, some people never returned home leaving behind spouses and belongings. Some retuned home injured spending their final days in a care homes. I took care of a few widows back in the 60s who faced exactly that

That caravan is much older than ‘70’s…..more like ‘40’s or 50’s!! How fun you guysare!!

You guys are so much fun to watch and always find such neat things. Happy New Year to you.

Happy new year!

Another great video, the farmers catalogue with the old man on the front is 3d which is 3 old pennies not 3 shillings 😮

Great clip as always. I think the caravan is 1950s, judging by the 'space-age' style interior door handles.

I think your right! The shape of the exterior was quite space age too. The 70s carpet threw me off

How much fun was that shed? What a fabulous find. Thanks guys!

9pm. Will be there. I have missed you all!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😜

I love watching you guys, you respect what you see and have fun doing it. Happy New Year

Happy New Year guys. What a mixed bag that was. So much scrap metal in that shed. The old tin toys were great. Shame you couldn't get into the house. Looking forward to more videos this year. ❤

Another great explore guys. I bought a 1914 Victor Victrola record player in mint condition at an estate sale last year for $47 and it came with a box of new 78 rpm records, like the ones in that old barn. So much history in that old barn. Imagine what all was in that house.

That was a fun explore. Thank You so much. A Happy New Year to all you boys. Many blessings to you and your loved ones. May all your explorers be safe.❤

Happy New Year guys. Wow! The caravan is amazing! I think it’s earlier than 70’s more like 40’s or 50’s, because of the design of the couch. It would be great to restore the caravan…Stay safe. 🙂

Awesome explore. So many really old things to see. Happy New Year guys. All the best 👍

Thanks guys for another video glad that you are back happy new year to all😊

Oh boy that was a fun beginning to the New Year. Thank you and your crew. Thoroughly enjoyed that!!!! 🤗🤗🤗

WOW !! Very 😎😎 love seeing this from the 1930s to 40s Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉

Happy new year and thanks for all of your great videos. looking forward to another year! 👍🙌

Diana has been an air gun industry leader since way back in 1892. During this time, they have built a reputation for quality air rifles. The Stormrider, however, is their first foray into budget-friendly PCP air rifles.

Happy new year guys thanks for all your great vids xxx

What a great find to start the New Year off, the rest of the year is going to be full interesting finds, the round ceramic that was hanging up in the caravan was a potpourris they were all the rage in the 80’s .👌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

Hello Alex and Pompeye and Steve!!! Happy New Year!!🎉🎉😊 shame you couldn’t get in the house. The barn had all kinds of things in it. Thanks for sharing your find. 😊❤

Happy new year from California! Looking forward to the next explore. Loved the fireworks at the end!

What a cool place to stumble upon..i could have spent hours looking thru all that stuff and WoW that retro camper was amazing! It’s in such great shape inside i hope someone saves it.

I am the scream was from a fox. The Caravan was late 50s early 60s and would never have had a toilet in them.

Diana was a gun maker! Not personalised 😂😂

yep definitely 1950's .I wonder what they used to tow it with? a Land rover would be struggling. My Dad used to hire a caravan every year in the 1960's and I remember an English one being the same design as that but not as big. The family Zephyr was working hard up hills towing it .

Happy new year to u all . Love your explorer's x

Happy New year Guy's.. Many thanks for all your efforts last year in bringing us such entertaining and fascinating videos.

Happy new year cheers for the kind words 😁👍

Records of that era were made very differently to how records were made later. In the late 19th and early 20th century, manufacturers used shellac, a brittle resin-like substance produced by insects, to press their records. In order to ensure that the shellac held up, manufacturers would add ground up stone and carbon black powder to the mix in order to strengthen the otherwise brittle material.

This place has so much history shame its left to rot cant wait for pt2 😮

Happy New Year guys! Great video! Stay safe guys!

completely missed your last 2 lives which I'm cross about.hoping you all had wonderful Christmas and new year. And oh oh oh camouflage things will never be the same!!! Always a pleasure guys xxx😊

Awesome like always and can not believe the guns and the stuff are just left

The 'what's that?' that was hanging in the caravan, is known as a pot pourri pomander. For my sins I used to collect them. 😜 Fabulous finds this week, guys. Pompeye always has me in stitches. Great stuff!

Can't wait looking forward to watching this mate 👌👍

Happy new year them shed was right full of old good stuff just hope no body else finds out and steal anything to sell as looks like it's been sat for many years and the house looks the same but sealed up tight

Happy new year guys! I enjoy your videos.

Love all your videos Alex happy new year to you all you lads have a good one ❤

A happy and healthy 2024 to you guys! Thanks for all the laughs, and I'm looking forward to seeing where you take us in the next 12 months.

Tonight was great Steve nearly falling out of the caravan Alex you done it in style sham couldn’t get in the house I loved tonight thank you guys happy new year the fire work at the end was funny

Those records aren’t vinyl, they are Ebonite 78 rpm. The “guns” are toy BB guns 😂 A treasure trove of all manner of things! Cheers Alex, Ed and Steve Happy New Year 💥 😎👍

It is not ebonite ! Ebonite is rubbery substance. In the late 19th and early 20th century, manufacturers used shellac, a brittle resin-like substance produced by insects, to press their records. In order to ensure that the shellac held up, manufacturers would add ground up stone and carbon black powder to the mix in order to strengthen the otherwise brittle material.

I used to work at Rover, and seeing those old Rover boxes took me right back.......

Happy New Year Everyone 🎉really enjoy your. Videos some great finds you are so funny 😂 together thanks for all the laughs keep up the great 👍 Job 🎉Happy New Year 🥳

A lot of museum pieces there lads Aladdin's cave some nice finds 👍brings back some memories

Happy New Year another nice find.

I think the caravan might be a Carlite. A very high quality make, sometimes called the Rolls Royce of caravans.

Maybe but given the size, it's more likely a vintage Roma. Designed for living in year-round so built very strong, the downside is that you need a big vehicle to tow it due to the weight, and most caravan sites won't accept them because of the association with gypsies. (You're also much more likely to get stopped by the police while towing one, for the same reason. Apparently other large, 'winterised' vans like those made by Polar and Hobby suffer from the same stigma, the powers that be assume you're living in it, and treat you accordingly.) Lovely vans, much better built than most statics, but lots of drawbacks unless you're planning on just parking one for use as extra accommodation.

So I’ve not been on to watch your videos, been very busy. I will come on tonight to watch it and happy New Year to you and Merry Christmas. I am well and okay been working very hard 🎉🎉🎉❤❤

Cor, the carpet in that caravan we had back in the early seventies. You made me laugh again guys. Happy travels and finding new places to film. Bit cold at the moment though

What a treasure .... Those records and the player. Wowsy !

Great find goes way back to the 1950s the toys also date back to around 1959 wow 👌 let's hope the stuff is saved 🙏

It’s a two bang🤣🤣 brilliant lads, happy new year 🎉🥳🍻

That book of aircraft is fascinating. The Defiant was a WW2 aircraft..Diana and BSA were airgun manufacturers

HAPPY NEW YEARS 2024 Love ya guys.

Awesome 👍 fellas exploring. The old air rifle looks like 177 break barrel, my granny use to have one of those bird cages. Made by Poly-gon 74+ 🍁hunter Yorkshire expat

It's a gypsy van, that's why it's so big and has no bathroom. Beautiful vans but worth very little, you need a big vehicle to tow them!

Happy New Year guys and all the best wishes!

I hope you put everything back as you found it because Eddie is a bit of a shambles he didn’t give a shit.

The Caraven was cool

Good afternoon. Good to see all you guys again.😊👍

Reminded me of one of my grandads sheds a long time ago x

Loved the vlog nice to see Steve shame about the house it looked full though the window 😂😂
