You two are just so lovely ❤️
💖👑👑💖🎬🎥📽Am a new subscriber and i think you both are adorable. I lost my daughter to cystic fibrosis in 2016 she was only 26. But i do enjoy seeing Mother and Daughter haveing something you both love doing together it really warms my heart .your vlogs are so relaxing because after i lost my daughter i found out i had stage 4 bowl cancer i am cancer free now after 5 years but treatment has left me so weak.Your vlogs are so helpful for me because thay really intresting and i love history. So a big thank you too you both am so looking forward to watching all your vlogs❤ Am so happy I found your channel ❤
Your videos are so relaxing to me! I love to watch them and listen as I work on my stained glass pieces. Great work ladies and thank you for all the amazing videos!
The cap badge gets my vote. The history of your family is priceless, and you are blessed to have their old photos. Peace and Blessings. . .
Same here, love the cap badge, I still have my families cap badge along with all of the medals from the Bore-war and WWI.
I aagree,military badge with a family connection ? It doesn't get better than that ! Great find,I'll give a special mention to the seriously creepy dolls head for staying in one piece all those years,lol
My husband served 20 years in the Army Infantry. He was in Berlin, on the Iron Curtain twice, and served in Desert Storm on Highway 8 to Bashara. We military families are so very lucky to have such brave and honored men to call kin. I would like to vote for the blue eyed dolls head. Such blue eyes.
What a wonderful description of the bottles of leg makeup and nail polish on the strong women working during WWII. Thank you as always Gail and Alex.
As always, you ladies teach me and entertain me. What an absolutely brilliant lark! I vote for the cap badge.
I love hanging out with you both ....been Wacthing you for a few years now... I love the bond you have together it is wonderful many blessings hello from OREGON 🇺🇸
Hi, what a lovely 'off the cuff' visit to the high tide mark. lovely surprising pieces of history . I was such a pleasure to be in your company as you had fun larking around. I was thinking the LEG looked like it might have belonged to an articulated bear??? Have a great week and stay safe.
In turn, a heartfelt thank you to both of you. Your discoveries are adventures that fill my heart. Thank you!
Gosh, that was a lot of fun! So many treasures. I LOVED that porcelain shard with the little clerical type person on it. ❤️
Another great haul and beautifully displayed on your table as always. Thanks for allowing me to join you on your lark at high tide. See you next time!
Window of Wonders: cap badge. What a wonderful family history! Thank you for sharing these stories. 💕 from Michigan, USA
Thanks for watching! xx
So many goodies this week! I really love those old glass reflectors and the Chandelier drop is amazing. I too like those little bottles with their bakelite lids on top! That amber jar is crying out to be lit! On springwatch they mentioned another fish species with dentacles in their mouth as well... That border reg badge is amazing!!
What a great lark! Thank you once again for taking all of us along. I vote for the cap badge for all the great history and the connection to your family. The sweet blue eyed dolls head is my second vote. 😉
I second that! Wonderful story! ❤️
There's surely no competition this week for the shelf item. In honour of all those that gave so much, let it be the be cap badge.
I love the fact you know your family history and are able to pass it on to those that follow in their footsteps generations later. With photos too.
The other items you found at high tide, were wonderful and some deserving of queing for the shelf, but theres only room for so many.
That dolls face was fab, with its pure blue eyes. Poor little thing needs some new pupils and she will be perfect....some hair too, don't forget. I hope to see you put her together again one day.
It always amazes me the beads you find. Teeny tiny jeweled pops of colour, which look lovely all strung together. Some are so unusual and you probably would not be able to tell just how old some of them really are.
Its also a shock to see glass items survive so well. The crystal chandelier droplet....how did that survive in such good condition.
A very enjoyable lark as always ladies. Thanks.
Just shows it doesn't need to be low tide to find amazing treasures! The badge is fantastic especially since it has links with your family. 😊❤️
great video girls the badge is fabulous and cleaned up very nice , the blue eyed dolls head lovely , and for your family the badge for the window
You two have a particularly unique mudlarking skill, of holding several objects, while dexterously picking up another with the same hand. Well done! I've Enjoyed this high tide adventure!
If your 93 year-old grandma is still able, it would be amazing to hear some of her stories. Perhaps you could bring her some items from the past that you've found and ask her to talk about them? I just love hearing history from the people who were there. Just a thought! Love you guys.
Loved this video ladies 😊. The cap badge is our favourite; we loved the family connection ❤️. Please keep posting - you are going from strength-to-strength. P.S. nice cap Alex 🧢 😀
Wow....high tide was amazing! So many treasures. Between the doll's head and the badge I cannot choose a favorite.
Another great lark you found some great things.i think the cap badge should go into the window especialy with the connection your family have with it.those old photographs are lovley and how you have found out about them .Gail i think you have a resemblance to them your eye's are very similar.take care and thank you.
The cap badge and the history behind it was very interesting. The finds on this one at high tide were exceptional.
The cap badge, with all its history, has definitely earned a place in the window! Another wonderful day mudlarking!
The cap badge is so special!! Almost an instant family heirloom. I think that should be in the Window of wonders!!
Cap bagels for window!! Very Important family find!! Congrats Ladies and always enjoy your hunts !!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Window of wonders I vote for the dolls head with the blue eyes. Loved learning the history of Queen Victoria and blue eyed dolls.
This has been a wondrous lark! You found so many treasures but hands down the pick for the window is the Regimental badge. I can hardly believe how well it has survived. Thank you for sharing this high tide lark. Stay safe out there!
The border badge is an amazing find. Real old south African history. Great find
Thank you for such a fascinating video. I think there must be a Mudlarking Demi God who smiles upon you, as you always seem to find such gorgeous little treasures. The “Miners” makeup I’m sure I remember from my teenage years - the 1970s. I’ve been reading up on mudlarking, both historical and contemporary, it’s such an interesting subject. I think if it makes you delve into history and especially your own family history, it’s an invaluable pastime- even occupation. You give me a tiny dose of home each time I watch, thank you. I still get so envious of your finds… I may need to add an extra week or two onto a Scottish home visit in 2023 so that I can devote it to treasure hunting - my family will just have to find something else to do….👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
Wow how wonderful!! The cap badge gets my vote,I got emotional with your beautiful historic family story,thankyou for sharing 💕💕
They need a TV show. I love watching the wonderful treasures you find
Absolutely absorbing video ladies. and how wonderful to find a piece of History which you can relate to. So my choice for the window is definitely The Borders Cap Badge.
The cap badge is the top find and should go in the window, what a neat connection to your family’s history!
So cool if only I had a family member that would go out with me and do this.
I have been Spring cleaning like crazy and missed you a bit ago. All.done tired now. I've been waiting all day!! Love you Gail and Alex!!
Wow! Each find was wonderful, and the high tide was a reminder to open our eyes and minds to new places and things.💝
I'm new to your channel, but have been doing my best to catch up over the past few weeks...so inspiring on so many levels! I woke up in the wee hours of the morning with 3 ideas for the magnificent 'stopple boppers' (not sure I spelled that right) 😁no doubt you have thought of these ideas or other fans/followers/friends have suggested them...hope it's okay to share!
Shear off the points and drill two small holes, top and bottom, and (1) string them with thick monofilament line, then attach them to one of your large glass jar lids for wind chimes! or (2) string them into indoor beaded curtains! Either could include some of your wonderful colored glass shards or the lovely shards of china/pottery, and finally (3) use clear epoxy to glue them into windows or glass doors, for privacy glass or just for the beauty. Thank you for being so inspiring....now for a nap. 😂
Hello ladies! So grand to see you again…hope all is well. And what amazing finds! So glad you were careful not to fall in the water Alex! Love how you rescued the bead! The jar is adorable! And for the window the dolls head with blue eyes is my vote! Beautiful finds! Enjoy! Stay safe and thank you again for your devotion to share your finds! Greetings! 🌹🎈😉
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it! xx
Your war history is amazing … you are special ladies!
Turning is not falling when you see good.
@@NorthernMudlarks You've taken us all on yet another grand adventure today ladies. Loved all the finds. Did you ever discover whether or not the one bead was uranium glass? My vote (s) for the windowsill of wonders are the border regiment cap badge [btw, is it silver?], the unusual clay pipe with the figures, and the Miner's paint on stockings. Greetings to you from me here in North Carolina, USA! Take care and lark on!
Some times you just have to go and have fun glad you stopped at high tide, so many of your finds you would never of found as your there mostly at low tide. Some cracking finds that’s for sure.🤗🤗🤗
The cap badge is such a touching tribute to your family!
I vote for the red reflector and the The cut crystal lamp pendant for the window! Wonderful lark thank you ladies! 💕💕WV🇺🇸
Once more than you so much. Spending a bit of time with two lovely ladies is such a pleasure. The cap bage gets my vote for the window. Peace love & mud. TomCat
Oh my! That cap badge is priceless!! Absolutely gorgeous! 💞🏅💞
Wow,, very interesting about your families past..that piece will be treasured for sure..scrubbed up nicely..i love stories of past places and people😀👍🏿
Well girls, some great finds very enjoyable vid love the showcase at the end but I'm especially taken with that exquisite pea hen, good to see her from the outside rather than through the window, take care and happy mud larking in the future, cheers from Oz !!!🥰👍🍀🍯🦢

Absolutely awesome! And the fact that you have a picture of one of your ancestors WEARING that same badge on his uniform cap.....well, that is just beyond anything imaginable!! Super cool!
That cap badge was really something special and over all great finds. Superb!
I love all of the fabulous finds in this weeks video. All of the glorious red glass items, the show stopping military cap badge along with footballers pipe and numerous amount of stoppers and beads. I have to admit I miss the way you used to go through your finds I find myself now pausing the video to get a better look at everything. I know that the video would be hours long and lots of editing to record ever single find so at the end I like to see the whole lot together and see it all glistening in the 🌞. But I will take it anyway I can because I absolutely love watching y’all and all of y’all’s adventures and what you find while your on them. Have a blessed week see you on the next one.
I love that you shared with us some of your family history with the find of the cap badge. So sad that it wound up there in the dirt. But I'm happy at least it has found a new home
I’m partial to the doll heads ! ❤❤❤❤❤ Loved the history today !✌🏼💗✌🏼💗✌🏼💗🌏✌🏼🌏✌🏼🌏✌🏼
What a great lark! I always feel like I’m there with you! I vote for the cap badge 😊
The cap badge has to go in the window, how amazing you have a family connection. I also love the tiny head with the blue eyes.
Wow! Great finds! I love watching you two find great treasures! Thanks so much 🙏
Beautiful finds. I especially love the dolls head and the liquid stockings. Such wonderful history. Thank you my lovelies xx Teresa 🇦🇺😍
Thank you - glad you enjoyed it! xx
HANDS DOWN ! Must be CAP BADGE... SOOO many interesting finds... I love them and you ! ❤
Hi friends…. Always enjoy your adventures mudlarking!
Such authentic beautiful ladies. Thank you for adding joy to my days sweet friends💐
Amazing the history of finding items like the cap badge, could bring such memories of your family. You had some other good finds and in lots of colours. Maybe the nail varnish bottle could go in the window. Thank you for sharing and have a good week
The last round up was gorgeous! The whole find! I think the whole theme of the find was momentous because of the personal connection for you. Thank you so much for a gorgeous video.
Hi lovely ladies, another great video, I also think the badge gets my vote. Much love Sue Gosling ❤️
I just love you gals! That could have very well been your ancestors cap badge! I get a kick out of your love for beads.God bless you both! Your friend and fan, Kevin
Love 💕 the badge and family history!!!! Fantastic ❤
Hoo-Ray for high tide! Great finds ladies. Thanks for the wonderful history on the hat badge and your family ties. It should be framed with the family history. The Crystal would look dazzling hanging in the window.
The Cap badge has definitely got to go in the window of wonders,thanks for another lovely video 💗
I absolutely loved this video. So many treasures.
What fun you two had today! Thank you for taking us along. Todays vote is a bit difficult between the cap badge and the lovely blue eyed dolls head. But with the family connection I have to vote for the badge.
Cap badge for the window definately as it has links to your family. Another great adventure at a high tide too. Sending love to you both.
I love your videos. They're relaxing and exciting at the same time! I think the cap badge, and the blue eyed doll head should go in the window of wonders because they are both unique!
I like the cap badge for the window of wonders. Really enjoyed the history connection with your family🥰
Fantastic finds. The cap badge is the winner this week.
You two had a marvelous day, even at high tide! I love all the tiny treasures you've found! The reflector is gorgeous!💖
The amazing mosaics you could make with all the beautiful pieces of tile I just can't even begin to imagine the beautiful art that could come from that. I think I would have to build frames and decorate them even with half tea cups and such and pieces of tile and have a mirror inside
The Borders Cap Badge. Thanks for sharing the family connections.
Alex and Gail, have you thought about making eat rings out of the marbles. That half pipe bowl would be awesome with a few more put in a framed board with small air plants coming out of them.
Lovley treasures again a perfect way to spend time outdoors xxx
Hello 👋 from New York USA you guy's found some Amazing finds my favorite finds Definitely was the Clay Pipe bowl with the Two Men playing Soccer ⚽️ and the Crystal Chandelier peace That was an Absolutely Beautiful find Thank You for bringing me along with you guy's I can't wait to see what you find next 😀 😊

Great video! The badge wins this week! What a fantastic find at high tide! 💫
Cat badge should be in the window!! Beautiful finds love you both 😘😘Always a fantastic fun hunt.
wonderful!!! I vote for the cap badge for the window of wonders!!
It is simply fantastic that you found a badge (I forget its proper name) that has links to your ancestors! I would be over the moon with Joy if that happened to me! See? You were meant to go there even though it was high tide, your gut feelings were true! I am so Happy for you!
Exciting adventure and so many nice finds. Thank you both.
Liked most of the finds keep on mudlarking.
What a difference a tide makes! 😊🌸
Wow fascinating Family history xx
you 2 are you 2 I love you 2 thank you 2!
From western Nebraska, USA...beautiful finds...lovely!
Yes, the cap badge. It holds personal history. Every time you look at it in the window, you'll remember family.
It’s almost like the shed saved that man !❤❤
Great video Ladies! I well remember the 'Miners' brand of cosmetics, they were on a par with Rimmel back in the 60s and 70s and sold in Woolworths. The cap badge is a fantastic find and I love that it relates to your own family, I would definitely put it in the window! 😀💗 x
The cap badge is so lovely wow all the great history thank you xxx
What a beautiful table of finds! Love watching your journey! ❤
You should pick up the shards of glass from the broken codd marble bottle. I carry around used crisp bags, to pick up broken bits of glass everywhere, to drop off at the bottle bank. Thanks for listening.
You can always take the bottle home, smash it there, then save up the shards for when you need to put some filler at the bottom of your planters.
Wonderful family history.
Like the tini bottles stay safe. Enjoy the Tea
That marvelous cap badge and the red lens would be nice in the window.definitely the badge.
Great finds ladies.love the cap badge story xx
They are great treasures.love the football pipe .very pretty. Thank you both for sharing this wonderful adventure.
Hi there, Ladies. Your porcelain doorknobs were imitating a couple of very Cool mushrooms with morning dew upon their caps, don't yah think? ( : Looks like the guy on the clay football pipe is wearing a pack of sorts, on his back, which is attached to a harness? Prisoners? The reflectors always draw my attention, especially a red one. Some really super finds. Good thinking, Gail. Now you know that whatever the tide may be, that it shouldn't be a great concern (except for certain areas of high-tide danger, such as on The Thames). As you mentioned, being there when you were, forced you to look in areas you wouldn't ordinarily have looked, thus finding a new layer to the Mama Earth's treasure chest, so to speak.
There is a channel holder that makes sculptors from metal bits. I saw a rooster he made, using wrenches, nails, twisted, curly bits for the top notch and tail feathers. That got me thinking, if you took that melted, brown glass with the stopper in it, all you need do is add a top notch, tail feathers and a beak to give a peck of approval, made of any of your finds and I'd say you'd have yourself a very charming miniature Shwoo, adorning any area it lands upon. Please send some good healing thoughts out for the very talented sculptor that won't be making them anymore , as he is dealing with a serious health issue.
I still have my Dads cap badge and demob papers, also his petrol coupons, it lovely to have family history
