A Rainy Day River Walk, a little mudlarking adventure. 

I dont mean to pressure you or anything and I have no ill feelings when you don't upload for a while, life happens to all of us! But it bums me out every time I hear you say that you hope you're making something interesting that makes us want to watch. I hope you know that for a lot of us you are our top favorite RU-vidr! Most of us would be incredibly excited for your uploads even if you sat on the side of a loud motorway and read us the dictionary. I don't think we really care what you find, I mean we love watching you find everything you do, but if you don't find much we also aren't disappointed. We like you as a person and we like your voice and we like your beautifully poetic take on everything. I'm sure I speak for many many many of your followers when I say that we just love to see what you're up to! We love to see these hidden places we've never been, we love to see what you find or don't find, and I still can't believe you haven't pre-written or memorized some of the things you say so poetically. We're Tom fans!

The best way to start a Friday! Tom Burleigh, rain, a river and a tunnel. I’m in Heaven!!❤

Each of your videos feels like an unexpected but welcome gift; thank you so much.

Your voice and videos has the same soothing effect of watching a Bob Ross painting video.

Just as the soothing guitar music starts, my mind goes to a happy place with the magical voice of Tom along with the sound of rain and flowing water. My brain anticipates the score that will be played in each change of scenes. I feel like the words of the Moody Blues song “Tuesday Afternoon” - so gently swaying through the fairyland of love, if you’ll just come with me, you’ll see the beauty of - and for me that is the beauty of walking along the riverbanks and admiring the simple beauty of a lost marble found. When Tom placed the little snail back on the rock ledge amongst the tasty greens, my heart melted. Tom’s videos are just what the weary soul craves. I so look forward to the next journey.

Such a pleasure to have you back Tom, a tonic for the soul. That blue marble was a stunner, the best find. The river walk was a good choice for this video, we always enjoy these walks/larks if only because of the flora and fauna that you come across. Thank you, look forward to more and hope you get through the fatigue syndrome.

Goodness, Tom. Today, for me, your film is the treasure I needed. Thank you for always telling a beautiful story with your words and camera.

I never get tired of seeing the beautiful view out your window!

That first marble made the entire trip worth it! I’m glad you are still posting videos periodically. Some of the channels I’ve been subscribed to have all but disappeared. Glad to see that you’re not one of those. Sorry to hear of your public performance anxiety. I am glad you have been able to record some of your music…I do enjoy it.

Your videos always seem to come at the right time. Soothing river sounds and beautiful West Yorkshire scenery to calm the sole. Thank you Tom. 🙂

Great to see you again, Tom. Been a while since I watched any, but always glad to finally do so. I still fighting ALS, and slowly but surely will decease me in the next two years. Your videos always put a smile on my face, so you on the next. Cheers Tom! 🇬🇧🙂👍🇺🇸

You have an eye/lens for the lovely and serene and an ear for the sound of a brook, gentle rain, and the wind through grasses and trees. You don’t give off a chaos vibe, so when I am chaos itself your videos can help me change that up. I enjoy your artistry.

I love that first of two marbles,presumably German. Yes,I understand that a sea glass patina is important,but wow it would be great to se that tumbled to a near-perfect shine,the shine that a child so long ago was captured by,to the envy of his friends,right before a round of marble.

Look at that view!!! That sky! Those hills and fields! The light! Dude I’d take you reciting Rick n roll lyrics as long as you show me that! Or just a walk in the sun! ❤️💯glad your back! You obviously don’t know how much you’re needed today, and loved! 💥❤️

What a lovely marble! Blue is my favorite color.

That insulator is a radio relay type for the old rediffusion and similar hardwired radio systems. They are always a pleasant thing to find and the poles regularly followed rivers, so it's worth grabbing if not too difficult! Another cool video Tom!

There's nothing like rain in England, is there??!!! The only place in the world where rain can fall and it will feel like home, the colours of the nature blending with it and becoming that enchanted place that England in rain is!!....Unique and special like nothing else out there!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🌟

I always enjoy going along on the river walks with you and I needed it today. I find it very restorative and I thank you!

I have missed your calming influence and voice. Couldn't have come at a better time. Thank you Tom

Oh, how I would love to live on a canal boat . Just move along the rivers through the locks and see the river life. Have a canal boat all kitted out and comfy for me to just enjoy the slow life. A raining mudlark is just as fun as a dry one. Seeing nature is always a big bonus.

I hope you feel better soon Tom. Be sure to give a good history to your doctor of what you walk through and what you put your unprotected skin into. Could be useful. Retired nurse❤

Woohoo 👌😊 a Tom Burleigh video to watch. Welcome back, we've missed you and we just love any of the videos you post even with big or small finds or none its awesome to look at the beautiful areas you take us too. Thank you so much Tom ☺️ Also i hope your Chronic fatigue doesnt put you out of action too much. Take care, from your Aussie fan, Deb 🙂

Wonderful video, nice to hear your voice again! And many thanks for taking the bits of plastic and lead out of the river.

Ah, a video from you is the best of surprises!!!!

Love hunting for treasures, no matter how small, the beautiful greenery, sound of rushing water, & a voice like warm chocolate caramel sauce over vanilla ice cream, what more could you ask for!! All joy Tom.

I save you up for moments I have time to savour your videos. ❤

Always love watching a wander through nature.

I hereby declare “hissiest” a real word!

Yeay a new video. So good to see you still posting. What a treat. Thank you 😊

I’ve missed you and your beautiful music 😁

Really missed your videos. Glad to see you today. Blessing to you. ❤❤

Thank you. CFS is no walk in the park. Appreciate any / all content you are able to manage. Blessings.

I enjoyed your walk, Tom. I love the wildflowers and the wildlife!❤

Love the flower and the MARBLE!

I like the mud hens.

Lovely Yorkshire, even in the rain. Very enjoyable video, thanks for sharing.

Thank you for giving me a trip down memory lane. No I have never been anywhere near the river you wandered along but I have been on a wander during a rain shower and can no longer do such a thing. Wandering along thinking about nothing at all or sorting through all the great mysteries of our existence on the planet. It was always a pleasure in spring when I was younger. Now the carers in my life would be horrified if they thought I was getting rained on. Thanks again for the ramble and the peace for random thoughts and ideas.

Tom!! We've missed you!!! Please continue to make these lovely videos if and when you can 🎉

Whatever you film we love to watch, finds or no finds, crafting or not. Love the marble!

Having spent the day digging out knotweed from my property it was so relaxing to go on that river walk! And it was a stretch without knotweed as far as I could tell. There is something very soothing about vicariously walking along these rivers, finds or no finds... thank you.

Beautiful video Thank you❤

I treasure your videos. I don't care if you find anything or not..love the scenery and listening to you.

Nice to see you again Tom. Hope your day is as amazing as you are.

Wishing you good health, and kind doctors who will help you get there.

You always give such an enjoyable walk and mudlark. Thank you Tom.

I would love to see you forge a healthy-sized animal shaped bell with an interesting clapper. Thank you for the video. Enjoyable as always ❤

How lovely to hear from you again, Tom, wishing you good health and many pleasant outings to come 🍀

Good Morning Mr. Burleigh. I understand why you didnt transport it, but the prospect of seeing that insulator and bracket resting next to your window would be an interesting curiosity. Peace be upon you. Thank you for your videos

i love canadian geese

Tom, so nice to “see” you again! I’ve missed you! Love the marble! Just beautiful!

Your videos offer a calming escape - many thanks for sharing your peaceful wander and authentic self

Hello Mr Tom I miss your videos so much.I wish you a happy time 💐

Nice to see a new lark from you! It was so relaxing: the flowing of the water, your very soothing voice narrating. Thank you for cleaning up the river as well! The marble was a great find. So swirly and colorful. Grace & peace.

"I'll take it!" and "I think I'll take it!" You gotta make up some merch!!!

Absolutely lovely to see you again, Tom! I’ve been in need of a calm, soothing voice lately, life has been difficult. Cheers.

So enjoyable and soothing. I was in a rotten mood but now feel calm. Thanks.

Thank you for a lovely rainy day lark.

Thank you Tom taking us on this adventure…I LOVE YOUR STYLE VIDEOS VOICE WORDS AND LOCATIONS…LOVE FROM CALGARY 🇨🇦

I absolutely adore this one! Thanks so much Tom.

I've said this before but I just love the intro music, it evokes memories of long summer days larking on the riverbank without a care in the world☺ Lovely video Tom, good to hear you 😀💖x

It was great to hear you today. I love our walks in the water. Until next time😊

“Duped by a Stick” good title for your biography

We missed you buddy! Good to have you back, can't wait to watch this a little bit later when I've got a minute. Who am I kidding I'm going to make time for this! I love seeing things like the river boats you guys have that we just don't have here in the US, all the canals and locks, sometimes I really want to take a pressure washer to some of that stone work but I do think most of the charm is the moss and plants that grow on it. Even more impressive is how these stone structures survive so long even with ivy and other plants eating into them. I'm definitely going to add on to this comment as I watch! Those geese look Canadian to me You only issue I've ever had with them is their poop annoying to step in, even worse if you're walking a dog. 🤢 They're ubiquitous in the Eastern US but I almost miss them here in Los Angeles.

Love your videos whatever treasures you find

Yes!!!!!!! I’ll be able to fall asleep peacefully tonight! Thanks for the video.

Thank you Tom as always for sharing your thoughts and adventures. As everyone has said , your videos, for us are treasures 🙏🏻

Rainy,sunny, windy day, finds, no finds mudlark ...we will take it Tom...always good to see/hear from you

So good to find your latest video in my feed today. I always appreciate the effort that goes into the making of them. 🥰 The two marbles certainly made it a successful lark, imho, along with those pieces of blue & white. The scenery was delightful, especially the light rain falling, although I know it made things very soggy for you. Sorry about that. 🤗Sending positive vibes regarding your CFS testing. 😍I hope it has a practical & functional resolution. 😊 Take care, Tom. See you next time. 😁💖👌👍👋

We love going on walks with you.

So good to see you out and about again Tom. Thanks for the great video!!

Always great to see a new Tom video ✌️💚

So good to watch another video and join you on another walk. Thanks so much.

Beautiful Video Tom i really enjoyed the River Walk God Blesx Take Care ❤

*Kia ora Tom, another awesome video.... seeing what you find but also listening to your wonderful soothing voice. 🙂nz*

Welcome back. I’ve missed your river walks. Hope you are well.

Welcome back! You've been missed.

I especially like that you take plastic, lead & trash from the rivers. You have such a beautiful view where you live. I enjoy your photography.

I sure wish I had that view.

What a lovely walk. And Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is so hard. A little bit too much is way too much and it'd hard not to overdo things. Take care.

I really love your films ... I wish I could walk along side with you but I can't... I have to watch and enjoy... I'm bed bound....once a ballet dancer. and now an avid mudlarker. thank you for your filming - all your hard work.

TY for another vid. I missed that opening string plucking brov

It's so Nice to hear your voice again😁Thanks much 🙋‍♀️🌄🏞️

I have enjoyed following your beautiful walk today! It’s good seeing everything, through your eyes 👀. Vancouver, Canada

Nice to see you back Tom Hope you've been okay

I’ve watched so many of your videos and just finally looked to see where the music came from. Oh my goodness you made your own music, no wonder I love it. Love your videos. Why wouldn’t I love your music? It’s uniquely you.

So glad you're back! Hope you're doing well!

Thanks!

Beautiful lark!🎉😊

I am always surprised by how perfect and clear the German marbles look when they are pulled from rivers and dumps and then at the round up not so much. Have to come up with a way to preserve the "wet look" that makes them so beautiful. By the way, I will add my vote to the others that love and look forward to your content. The walks and history and all the ways you can turn a phrase.

Thank you for this.

Thanks for the lovely video, it was a pleasant surprise in my feed. I hope you are feeling better than when you filmed this regarding testing and fatigue. I wish you a wonderful day and look forward to the next video of yours to pop up.

Sup Tom. 🙂✌

Oh my, I almost missed this 😳. I have the notification bell on but didn’t receive a notification. Welcome back Tom.

Your new video made my month thank you.

Dear Tom. Big hug to you. Thank you for all your fascinating videos. So sorry to hear you may have chronic fatigue syndrome. I have heard that chocolate is a good tonic for such illnesses...... Please look after yourself and occasionally spoil us with some river larking, when you're up to it.

Yes very enjoyable. Great marble.

thomas, i love how you leave the site better than when you arrive, kudos for that that first marble was a handmade item,,usally done by gaffers ( glass artists ) at the end of the day prior to rechaging the furnace for next days work, also known for end of day walking canes. thanks for the content best roger

Tom! Nice to see you again! 👋

Sooo gooddd to haveee you backkk...the familiar melodic music takes me to another plane.....

I’m not well curious about that sign now with the randomness of location and the potential stories, cool marble too 😊
