For so many centuries, people have struggled to stay alive along those shores. I always try to imagine what they would say if someone would have told them that one day people would walk along the shores, just looking for things lost, as a hobby. History fascinates me and I love your channel!

The white ceramic bottle with the pouring lip at 6:40 looks like a master ink bottle. They were used to fill individual ink wells at multiple desks . They are highly collectible here in the States with some going for as much as $200.

For a good part of my life when I lived in the UK I was a builder. You'd be amazed at the number of jars and bottles we would find when digging footings for extensions on older houses and a lot of them were the old marmalade jars. Britain must have cornered the marmalade market at some time.

All this stuff comes from the contents of London dustbins from victorian times. They used the cinders from the open fires that were dumped on the Medway and Thames forshore to add to the clay in the brick making trade . If you look at the old yellow london bricks you will see little bits of cinder in them. This was to increase the heat in the kiln process. Of course other things went in the bins ie bottles broken crockery etc and food waste. The piles of waste wghere left untill the organic matter rotted away and then used

The original food wasn’t made from oranges, but from quinces. These were cooked with honey and in the process the unpromising bitter green fruit was transformed into a sweet pink paste, which was stiff enough to be cut with a knife and be served in slices as a kind of dessert. The first of these preserves were made in Portugal and were called marmelada, from the word for quince in Portuguese, marmelo.

De don't find too many Dundee Marmalade jars here in the US, but I did find one. My mom begged me for it to use as a toothbrush holder.

You all work your buns off trekking through the mud the way you do as an example in this video. I am impressed. I love the crackling on that marmalade jar. I would take a broken one of those and cut out circles or other shapes to make pendants or gems for other things. BTW, having used lots of diamond blades such as the one you cut the shell with you will find the best luck with a stream of water keeping it and the object cool. You won't lose the diamond from the bit, and there is less chance of breakage. I love what you are doing with your upcycling, very inspiring!

You must own a museum for your finds. Or else you sell them. I love your video's: The thrill of the hunt. We learn more about our ancestors by looking at what they threw away or lost. I have never been to London & maybe never will. If I did I would consider my time to be better spent on the shore of the Thames mudlarking with you & learning about the London of the past.

Hey Si, a schooner in Australia is a 425ml glass of grog. In between a Half-Pint (a pot) and a Pint. A stubbie is a 375ml bottle of beer, and its bloody cool you have stubbies too.

In Sydney Australia a schooner is the most popular sized beer in most pubs it’s 425ml as opposed to a pint which is 570ml A stubbie is a bottle of beer which holds approx the same
@lmp8932
@lmp8932 4 года назад
I was most disappointed on moving to South Australia - the schooner is only 285 ml. A pint is 452 mls and oddest of them all (and swallowed in a couple of gulps) the butcher at 180 - 200 mls. Even smaller is a pony at 140 mls - the ladies used to order a pony of sherry or port.

Greetings from Sugar Land Texas USA 🇺🇸 Si I love your Mudlarking and “Dumping” adventures. Matt makes a great wingman! Be careful in that muck. You don’t want to wear out your knee and hip joints. My husband would take off 60+ mph in his bass boat only to have Cervical 3,4,5 and Lumbar 5 back surgery. Believe me, I’m a retired nurse and his surgery was no joking matter The Cervical 3 injury could have made him a quadriplegic I believe all that slamming into waves contributed to his surgeries You only have one set of bones. And although they make it sound easy to “replace a joint” it comes with risks of infection, risk of poor healing, pain during healing process which may not ever go away etc. So Si please be careful about the deep muck. Like my husband you might regret it years from now Wah, wah, wah. Don’t mean to bum you out - just a warning ⚠️ I truly enjoy watching your mudlarking and along with Nicole White and Alex and her mum ya’ll (I am from Texas, LOL) have made this Pandemic bearable! And for that I owe ya’ll a huge debt. Wishing you luck and fortune! God Bless!

But the only thing that caught my eye was a pot of Keillour's jam! An old schoolyard rhyme sang by girls as they skipped in Perthshire schools in the early 60's.

Glad to see that you have new and better mud spreaders on your feet. Much better than the broken ones in the video with Nicola. Have you ever thought about making a mud sled similar to a snow sled to pull your finds in? You could use bungees to tie down buckets to place bottles in and or boxes. Could be better than pack and carry. May work or not but an idea out. Bottles are good but the pots are better! 😊 Great collaboration with your friend. Blessings

@geslinam9703
@geslinam9703 4 года назад
Most of the bottles and jars in this video are from the last couple hundred years. We have been in the US longer than that. I suppose it depends on where you live, with the eastern, and especially northeastern US, being the best places to search. You just need to know where to look. Major rivers near myself are deep and have strong currents,so they wouldn’t be ideal, but I used to find a lot of old bottles just digging in the sand at the beach. The Thames seems to be an excellent place, with its huge estuary with shallow tidal areas, and the history of the cities close by dumping into the river. In America, shallow rivers and creeks, places known to be where people have long dumped their trash, old farmhouse sites, those would be good places to look.

Just before you say "whiskey bottle boys", there were two large round coin looking things next to a piece of glass beside the seaweed at 12:12, at the bottom of my screen. I love the marmalade jar. The crazing of the glaze is so pretty! And for it to be in that small of chips, its been in the river since it was emptied, the 1800's. Those mud shoes make a funny sucking sound, but bet they save a lot of energy walking those marshes.
