    HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Wishing you all the very best that 2023 has to offer!!
    We've blowing our the cobwebs on the banks of the River Tay, just across from the city of Dundee, in Scotland! We love this place for the amazing agates we find here - what better thing to look for on a winters day than golden agtes... its like bottling sunshine!!
    We're always on the lookout for sea glass and other beach treasure - we find a lot of smarties lids here too, so fingers crossed!!
    As the tides turn we make out way back to the car, leaving time and the flowing river to carry on their unstoppable course... We'll put our memories in a wee bottle and always remember the day.
    We hope you enjoyed today's video... Thank you so much!

    One of my most favourite places and where I found my very first piece of lilac sea glass. Had some amazing little finds here and so much glass and amazing stones. I walk this one a few times a month and my little dogs love this shore. The walk down to it is beautiful also, could spend hours at this spot.

    • @scottishmudlarking

    • @karansmith5252
      @karansmith5252 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Scottish Mudlarking if you walk along the pathway beside the road heading towards the bridge you'll come across a stile. If you cross over there and head down the path in the field it takes you out really close to the bridge. Found some amazing stones and chunks of what I think might be barite. I love the sounds of the water and stones when walking along that shore line. X

    So nice to have to see you both! I love the crunch and clink of the stones and sea glass, and Craig’s soothing guitar music. That beach has so many gorgeous stones…I was shouting pick that one! Take that! Also 3 smartie lids in one day?! I’ve only ever found one EVER!
    I also want to say the earrings made of teen-tiny orange flash glass are fabulous. They are beautiful. I’m amazed that Nicole was able to drill them.

    • @scottishmudlarking
      @scottishmudlarking  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much! The crunching sound is so lovely and the rain really helped to bring out the colours of the agates :) We were very lucky with the Smartie lids and my friend loved the F one, because that's the first letter of her name ! So glad you love the orange earrings - thanks ever so much again .... x

There are a lot of red agates there and orange..wow I would love the walk a lot the beach there, I thought I seen Dolomite stones varieties as well. What a Gemstone /sea glass heaven! :)
