Greetings Richard from the Treasure Coast of Florida. Happy 2020, Wow....Have been away so I am lurking over your shoulder on "our" your first Lark off this year...You are certainly out front with your opening pictures of the mosaic mural! Trend setter, giving your dear fellow Mudlarkers... a challenge. Rather amazing you now have thousands of new dedicated friends from all over the world.. That is so nice.
Hi I am Tammy from Malaysia. I am afraid we dont have the excitement of mudlarking for treasures or history but am glad to watch you doing it. I enjoy your videos tremendously and whatmore, to be transported back in time in learning the bits and pieces of history. Please keep your videos coming! God bless!🌻
I binged most of your videos (including the pottery quiz and your ebook) during a recent bout with pneumonia... and I greatly enjoyed every minute that you transported me away from my sick room and into an adventure in a different land. If you ever have a day when you wonder if your hard work is appreciated, please refer back to this post. My best to you and yours!
The bridge looked awesome especially when it includes mudlarking finds. Made the bridge look so bright and cheerful. Great vid. Always enjoy seeing shards magically made whole again 4 us 2 see what they 1ce looked like.
Brilliant video, thanks! I love learning what the different types of pottery are called and how old they are. I;d love to find some of those Roman shards!
Thank you for the video. It reminds me of the pottery we found during a rescue archeological dig I was on in America while I was in college. We found Native American pottery with clam shells for tempering. I'm looking forward to your next video.
Great video! Learnt we have probably a few bits of the Roman Nene Valley Ware that we picked up along the Thames. We kept them because they looked so unusual. Now we know they are Roman (which is fantastic) we will know to pick them up in the future! Two things learnt, always keep things you think maybe interesting and to come watch your videos to learn new things :)
Thank you Richard. The history wall is amazing with all the pottery shards from centuries past in it. What a splendid way to learn history. A very early pipe too. Nicola would be excited for you I do believe.😉
Hi Richard! Great to see you again! I never noticed that very nice mosaic mural at the beginning-- I'll have to check that out--I may be coming to London first week of March. Have to check the tides, though! Take care.
Happy 2020 Mr Hemery, good to see you back on the foreshore. I just love, love, love the images of the actual pieces intact, thank you so much for those! Now, I had no idea what/who Asterix and Obelix were and why they would eat a boar, so I read up on them and had a good chuckle regarding your remark. :-)
Thank you once again Richard for another great video. Im watching it with all my containers of Thames foreshore finds in front of me to identify! I still think you were born with a piece of pottery in your hand!
I keep hoping you will unearth a whole pot of some kind, lol. I love trying to guess what type of pottery it is before you pick it up. I am still learning.... :)
Thanks Richard. Enjoyed your video. A nice selection of pottery found. Seeing Farncombe station gave me a sense of nostalgia! Have you been to Elstead yet? Hope you get to London often this year! Look forward to your next video. Andy.
I don't know what you are filming on but a dead cat for the mike is definitely needed. A lot of your voiced descriptions were totally covered by wind noise. I'm also going to complain, again, about not using full screen for your videos. You can do it 'cos you've done it!! It makes a huge difference. Not quite as bad as using a phone vertically, you have been guilty of that too, but I can imagine that anyone viewing on a phone would only be able to use about half their screen. You have great knowledge and the views of the finds are good but the easily cured problems would make all of the difference to your channel. I look forward to your next upload.
A nice vlog, so complete with the trip there. Too bad the wind in the microphone. There is a lot of history to be found and appreciate your knowledge. I have purchased the PDF book, it seems wonderful.
So interesting 👍. Love to hear a lecture by you. To the untrained eye all the pottery bits and pieces look questionable. Thanks so much for your time and expertise 😉😁. 🤞 Wishing you a very happy New year 🥂 and much luck in your findings.
Yet another wonderful video! Right at 5:27, is that a handle or a pipe just to the right side of the middle of the screen? Also, at 24:54, I see what looks like a ceramic roof tile with a clear nail hole visible. Is there a way to date those?
I had a look, it's a pipe stem at 5.27. You were right about the roof tile later, they are very difficult to date. The Medieval city authorities tried to legislate that people only roofed with tile (which shows that a lot of buildings were thatched at that time.) I don't think they become common until after the Great fire, but still produced in that style up to Victorian times.
Richard, I hope 2020 brings you wonderful finds and you discover all the items on your wish-list! ... Also, I'm wondering if you've ever ventured out to the Thames Estuary and found any Roman items there?
Thank you so much! Love the history and your teaching of it. (Were you at one point a teacher? If not, you should. A college professor perhaps! Your very good!

Thank you Beverly!
I could watch these videos all day. Such History..Great Job.
Thank you!
Thank you Richard. Your wonderful obsession with pottery is always hugely informative.
Thanks!
I'm so amazed at how much you know about stone wear. I like how you show what the pieces looked like when they weren't broken, and the dates.
Thank you!

Happy New Year. It’s great to see you back on the foreshore again sharing your finds and knowledge with us. Happy larking for 2020.
Thank you!
I’ve watched several of your videos, and now when you pick up a piece of pottery I can identify them. That’s very exciting for me!
Great. Thank you!
I enjoyed watching the video and learning some history of pottery, cheers.
Thank you

Hi there! Yes, if you weren't brought up on Celtic comic books it wouldn't mean much!
Thank you once again Richard for another great video. Im watching it with all my containers of Thames foreshore finds in front of me to identify! I still think you were born with a piece of pottery in your hand!
Ha ha thank you!
Another great informative video. Thanks Richard.
Thank you!
The year gets better and better. Thanks Richard.
Thank you!
Always informative and always interesting. Thanks for making these.
Thank you!
Brought back memories Richard, so much to find on the Thames with so much history.
Thanks Ian and happy Christmas!
Great Stuff as always Richard.....
Thanks Steve, nice to bag some small Roman odds and ends.
Hooray! It's Richard 'emery ! Notebooks out and at the ready 🖊 !
Thanks!
I keep hoping you will unearth a whole pot of some kind, lol. I love trying to guess what type of pottery it is before you pick it up. I am still learning.... :)
Me too, so much to learn, a whole pot would be welcome. although I have found a complete ink pot.
Thanks Richard. Enjoyed your video. A nice selection of pottery found. Seeing Farncombe station gave me a sense of nostalgia! Have you been to Elstead yet? Hope you get to London often this year! Look forward to your next video. Andy.
Not had a chance to go searching in Elstead but it is still on my radar!
I love ypur videos ! So informative! Wish there wasn't so much wind in the microphone but wonderful nonetheless!
Yes, sorry about that, it doesn't seem so loud when you are filming. I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! Thanks!
I don't know what you are filming on but a dead cat for the mike is definitely needed. A lot of your voiced descriptions were totally covered by wind noise.

@@delukxy Thanks for the comments, I was disappointed with the sound quality.

Hi Richard! I'm the lady that pinched your art work on FB, hehe..
Great video! 💖
Thank you!
lot of wind. Don´t know what you use for a mike but some windprotection is needed. Nice video btw
Thanks, I just use my phone, but the wind is annoying. It didn't seem that bad when I was there.
Richard, I hope 2020 brings you wonderful finds and you discover all the items on your wish-list! ... Also, I'm wondering if you've ever ventured out to the Thames Estuary and found any Roman items there?
Thank you! Not been out to the Estuary but there is a lot of Roman material there.
2000 years of history on 1 Square meter, truly interesting
Thank you!
Good video as always. Lots of Roman this time. Wind got a bit on the way (voice over should solve the problem). Shank you for sharing.
Thanks Tobias, it didn't seem that windy when I was recording!
I love the pins. How do you make them shiny again?
As they are brass I expect you could polish them.
How do you know all these things ? your amazing !
12 years of researching my finds! And an archaeology degree.
I love how you show diagrams and real pictures of what you speak about..
Thank you so much! Love the history and your teaching of it. (Were you at one point a teacher? If not, you should. A college professor perhaps! Your very good!
How kind, thanks, never a teacher but like explaining things.
My first video of yours...thank you!
Thank you!
Hello good to see you
Thank you!
have you tried a piece of foam or fleece over the microphone.... dampens the wind... sounds...
experiment a little..
interesting finds but sound quality pipes...
Agreed! Something I will work on next time!
PS to viewers of Richards vlogs! Let's help push him over to 3K... subs. It would be a nice thing!
Thank you, it worked!
