During an expedition last year, I was so happy to come across several artefacts in the mud that have been there for thousands of years. The people who made them are long gone but their incredible craftsmanship is here for us to see today. They have been subjected to thousands upon thousands of tides and all the elements - but here they are and as you will see, the detail on them is marvellous. Thank you to to David Nolan for talking about the forts Darnet and Hoo, and to Geoff Watkins for the incredible drone footage.
Thank you for watching.

My wife and I have been geocaching for 12 years (the hobby takes us to so many interesting places we would never have known about otherwise). When we saw the cache, she did some investigative work through the geocaching website and messaged the geocachers (by their cache names listed on the paper log) to let them know. She sent them the link to this video so they can see that they are "famous" now. LOL! We really enjoy watching your videos. So very interesting!!! Thank you, from Connecticut USA!

I always really enjoy your Medway visits! Through your videos I've fallen in love with the forts Wo, Darnett, and Grain. And, as a speculative fiction author, I often daydream of them being perfect post apocalypse homes. 😂 But I'm proudly weird.😊 As for the bead (yes, I own literally millions, am obsessed with reclaimed beads, etc and trying to teach myself to be a bead historian) -it looks 17th century to me... Ventian glass, possibly traders bead... but I'm not used to seeing them as large bugle beads. Its size and shape really has the likeness of a more Ancient bead, even Mesepotania! But no, it's more "modern" than that. But not as modern as our times. The size of the hole indicates age and about 17th century. If I find the links I vaguely remember regarding such beads, I'll send them to you via instagram. ❤

Many years ago, in the days before pigeon ring databases, I found a pigeon ring. It was still attached to a very much alive, but traumatised bird. Unfortunately, the said bird had been brought into my house by my cat via the catflap during the day whilst we were out at work and had taken refuge at the back of the cabinet containing a collection of LP records. During it's time hiding there it had left a mess as only pigeons can, as you can imagine. We called the RSPCA who contacted a local pigeon club who despatched a member to take it away. I'm glad we found it before it reached the state that your pigeon did. Great episode, lots of interesting history and wildlife scenery.

They were used in the early 2000s far more than now. Many caches are very difficult to figure out but when you do, it's "happy dance" time. Cheers from Sonoma!

Roll on 60 years and my wife and I were picking blackberries, I don't know why but I remembered the hiding place, climbed up put my hand into the hole, and pulled out the tin, the bits, and pieces of fishing tackle was still there, I put them back in the hole for another 60 years.

Well, I'm sitting at home sick as a dog, so it's good to hear it'll get better; thank you for the encouragement! Oh, nice to see that geocache! I've been geocaching for several years now, out here in the desert; it's amazing how wonderfully creative people can be with their caches, and the places that I've learned about by seeking those caches through the coordinates they post-- I can't tell you how many new things I've learned from them! Here in the U.S. we have a lot of caches placed by troops of Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts and other kids' clubs; those can be fun. But I've been to caches in graveyards that were multi-part and led you from one grave to another to find clues to fill out their coordinates, I've seen one that involved solar-panels powering doorbells connected to trees, others where you had to bring along a large jug of water to pour into a pipe to make the container float to the top, and one that you had to dive 10 feet deep to reach at the bottom of a moored barge... It's a treasure-hunt where you can find your maps online at www.geocaching.com. Loved the Roman pottery; it blows my mind to think of just finding it in the mud like that, how heartbreaking it must've been to the original owners to smash a bowl with such beautiful work on it! The fort was fascinating too, and beautiful. The bit about the Pelican later was very nice to hear, too; I was familiar with the symbolism from studies in heraldry and illuminated manuscripts-- it's all over, if you know where to look, and was heavily used in the past in artwork and statuary to do with charitable organizations.

Same! I have my own version of 'mudlarking' in my old creek, finding American Indian arrowheads & bits of their pottery, old bottles, strange little water creatures & mosses, etc - but no Roman pottery, that's for sure!! We do have a lot of Indian mounds on the property but I would never dig in them as that's where the NAs often buried their dead, so I'll just have to keep wondering what's inside them. I keep telling my husband I want to go to England and mudlark the Thames. He always says "maybe next week!" 💀 We're retired, on a fairly 'fixed' income, and altho we have thousands of air miles I doubt we'll ever go. Shame, that, as I spent a lot of time living in Scotland as a youngster, and passed through/vacationed in London dozens of times off and on as my family traveled with my Dad's work. I'd love to see it again, but especially now as my time is short in the big scheme of things. Ah, well... Perhaps I'll come back as a Thames Mudlarker in future, eh? Life has way of working out the important things. 😁

I love your videos Nicola! I love the history of everything you find. Your friend David really enjoys telling history. Was he a history teacher? He sure kept my attention. I was picturing men behind the guns and men bringing up their ammunition. Then you found the note in the plastic case, and thought my goodness she could be a great detective. You have a true sense to find things very interesting places. Have a fantastic week ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

Just thought I would tell you that I have been sea glass hunting in Mazatlan Mexico, on the Baha. It’s hard going, but I have got my husband looking as well, and he found me a lovely piece of black and white tv screen. My first grey piece. It’s even a piece of the corner. All bubbled and tumbled nicely. I screeched with joy.😂😂

I love the way that you teach us about what you find and sometimes when you have a history of finding another piece similar to it you tell us about it. I think we all imagine ourselves as mud larkers looking for things right beside you. I love when you go off the beaten path, and you take us to a little voyage to another part and we get to learn about that. It fascinates me, the history that England has and the things that are still around!! Thank you Nicola and have a great week!!🥰

NER may stand for North Eastern Railway, taken over by the London North Eastern Railway in 1923, which was on of the four constituent railways which then became British Railways in 1948.

I have Lyme disease and have been ill for quite a long time. I am often cheered up by your videos. I adore you and your love for all you find. I would so love to go mudlarking. Never mind how wonderful it is to be by the water but to find such treasures? So wonderful. I have collected old things since I was 17. It blows my mind that you find Roman artifacts. I did find two arrow heads here on our property just after we moved in a year ago. I have decided since i cannot go mudlarking I shall search for more arrow heads. Thank you for sharing your days and your art with us.

I'm an arrowhead junkie in Louisiana. What state are you in? There are books to help you identify exactly which type/era your arrowheads are from - many of the guides are broken down into specific geographical regions. One go-to is the "The Official Overstreet Indian Arrowheads Identification and Price Guide," but there are plenty others as well, which honestly are generally more useful to me on a daily basis. You local library either has some or will certainly get them for you. Also, Amazon and eBay are great sources for used ones. I try to order 'used' books as often as possible! Cheaper, and why not 'save a tree' if one can, eh? I learned that several of my arrowheads are from the paleo, archaic, and Woodlands eras. I found a stunning, museum-quality hafted knife in absolutely perfect condition (the blade is still sharp!) in my creek - probably my most beautiful find, tho definitely not the oldest. Lots of pottery shards from across several eras, as well. My dream find would be a Clovis, of course, but that'll most likely never happen in this region. Sorry to hear you're dealing with Lyme disease. It's not so common in my area afaik, although I suppose it could be contracted from the ticks here as well as anywhere else. We harvest enough deer every winter to fill the freezer for the year, so deer ticks are definitely common during spring & summer. I wish you well, and sending prayers for you to feel better very soon!💖🙏💖 My spine is in horrible condition, forced me into an early retirement due to disability unfortunately, and I "get it" that pain is so debilitating some days that it's impossible to do anything except wait it out and hope tomorrow is a better day. Hang in there! ✨

I used to live in an apartment on Surprise lake In Washington state. I had never seen such friendly squirrels. I decided it would be fun to hand tame them and made the mistake of doing so by luring them into my apartment. After about a month I realized my living room carpet was infested with Fleas. Lol . Everyone thought I was an idiot because I didn’t realize squirrels had fleas.

My mom and dad spent their golden years as avid geocachers. It kept them close and kept them young. They found a cache in every state, in every county in Michigan and Florida, and in many foreign countries. They took cruises so they could cross countries off their list! Have a great time in Chicago!

Some of my old receipts fade with time. I suspect that long strip was a receipt that faded over time. Maybe it was left as a record of 1983 prices but the data was lost?

I stopped the video to look carefully at the hare images and to me it looks the most like the very first one but in reverse. I noticed separate fur strokes on the foreleg and no eyebrow like on your choice. Of course there are no fur lines on the rear leg so it’s not a perfect match. 🤔

Hi Nicola. Thanks for the lovely video. Nice to see (a) squirrel again :) This week me and my daughter are going for a massage which takes 1,5 hours. Done it once before and it is very soothing. Life is not so easy lately so this is very welcome. As a geocacher for almost 4 years now I can tell you that it really is fun. Here in the Netherlands we have found so many of them and living almost litteraly on the German border we found a lot in Germany too. 2 Years ago we were in Brighton and found several there. We still go every now and then as new caches will always come. We really love it, it's just little adventures and lots of fun. Have a great week and till next time. Love, Nicole xx.

It's just Wonderful! It has really enriched your life. And I must say, you have a marvelous attitude and appreciate all those little bits and pieces you find, no matter how small. Bravo.
