Hooray 🎉🎉Just what I needed today! A calm interlude with Tom Burleigh!
Thanks Nancy, I always enjoy reading your comments. 🙂
I just happened to come across this video,ty your awesome
I’m a bottle digger from the u.s.a, I’ve been watching this channel since I was only twelve and you inspire me so much. Someday I must travel to England to start some mudlarking! The stuff you find is so exciting and historical! Your videos do give an asmr effect, and out of all of the mudlarking youtubers, your videos are the most soothing. You should definitely start an asmr channel, Tom!
" i like it and I'll take it!"
Tom, your videos are just getting better and better! Thank you. -Cali
Gives me such joy to have a video pop up from you, Tom. I did wonder if that scaffolding plank was kids bridging or damming the river. I have to say, no matter what else you find, there is something endlessly charming about a glass bottle stopper.
Thanks Gill, I hadn't thought of kids as a possibility, but it absolutely is. There's also a small hamlet further upstream that I'd forgotten about, so may have floated down from there. The bottle stoppers I found there were lovely glass, particularly the two mushroom topped ones. 🙂
Your voice is soft and soothing and I love hearing you tell us what you are finding. It's a very rainy day here in a north Carolina coast on Saurday before memorial day 2023 . We are having a strong he windy rainy weekend.
Just to walk the streams along with you and look at the view of that lovely farm out your window is so perfectly enjoyable.
Thank you for another afternoon of your soothing voice and unhurried Mudlark finds. Greetings from the U.S.A.
Thanks Peggy, glad you enjoy them. Greetings from UK. 🙂
Thank you Tom. It's 3am in New England USA. Aches and pains keep me uncomfortably awake. I'm grateful for the soothing distraction. Spring 2022 footage? You must have an enormous collection of videos! Take care. Much appreciation for your kind efforts.💜
Love your sence of humor, saying something totally ridiculous, in a quite low key serious voice😊
What a magical place! So pleased that it’s being left to nature.
Beautiful beautiful view, ever changing from your window.
Thank you for sharing your adventure.
🙂🐿🌈❤️
Answering as many questions as I can...
Yes, gifting a bottle stopper would be lovely. Someone dreams of finding one. Took me a year❤
Would love to see a series of the new lives for the figurines ❤
I like the look of this site. Plenty of surface finds. Easier pickings than in some places. Thank you for taking us along on your mini adventure. Andrew
I thought I watched all your videos but I didn’t watch this one. I loved watching you pick up all the bits.
I think that first piece of wood with all the holes may have been the head of a push-broom. It is always a pleasure to come along. Thanks.
Always enjoy your company while having a cup of tea.
I could watch you search this area all day! So many things to find and always so calm & enjoyable with your voice 😊
That "brass wavy line thing" would make a great underline for a logo with "Tom Burley Mudlark" since it looks like waves! I'd have a field day if I lived near a big spilling dump like that! Lots of nice finds! I love that Ammonia bottle if you plan to pass it on 😉😂 Your channel definitely has the best theme music in my opinion. Not too jarring and suits the tone perfectly!
Sadly, don't think the ammonia bottle was still there when I last visited, but if I ever go again, I'll look out for it. I'm pretty rubbish at logos, I've tried designing them every now and then, for other people, for decades. Never had much success, but never tried to do one for myself; thanks for the suggestion, I may well give it a go. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 This was a brilliant video this week and those brass things depicting grape vines etc are lovely too! If you bent brass things into text and used the waves as an underline, that could work? 😂 I come up with random ideas!
Thanks Richard, for the compliment and the idea... I'll have a play with it, and see if I can make it work. 🙂
Ohhh the absolute joy of wading around river beds collecting bits and bobs...or nothing at all..just being
Hello dear Tom, you have a very soothing voice, and your easy to listen to when the volume is higher then I want, with you I don't have to turn the volume down, God bless you for that !😌 good to see a video from you again my friend !👩
Always wonderful to tag along on your trips. I enjoy your comments even when they're repetitive. Thanks for doing what you do.
Thanks Bernice, that's kind of you to say.🙂
so many lovely finds...thank you for the peaceful outing.
Hello from the USA. I'm amazed at the quantity of bits and pieces you find along that stream. A brass ring and you didn't even have to go on a merry go-round to win it. That was a fun pick.
I love the sound of your voice. It is calming and I love your videos. Thank you for posting it’s been awhile.
What a great “find” day, such a variety! It’s nice to see you have a good time.
Thank you Tom for another lovely video. I appreciate you telling what each find is, it is informative, and enjoyable. Beautiful site, it will be a great preserve .
Thank you Tom for another great lark. I so look forward to your outings and the interesting miscellaneous oddities that you uncover along the way. 🥰
Love all the ideas, just enjoy your videos so as long as you keep making them I'll be watching them❤
Good “seeing” you again Tom! I’m always happy to see a new video!
Thanks Jeanie, I'm always glad if they make people happy. 🙂
No patron it blocks us poorer people out. Love watching you
I agree, it's not a perfect option, and I absolutely do not wish to block people out. That's a big part of why I haven't done a Patreon page yet. On the other side of things though, by not doing one, I'm potentially blocking myself from ever earning a living from video making. I haven't taken a wage yet for thousands of hours of work; putting all the income from it back into future video ingredients. One day I hope, that all this work will pay enough to pay my rent, my living costs, and for future videos.😕
Yes I would love a video of you crafting with your treasures. Bracelets and necklaces from your metals
I'll buy the bottle stoppers from you, and any tiny bottles you don't need. Great day for you. Thankyou, Tom.
This area was beautiful. The bottle stoppers are so pretty. Thank you for an enjoyable walk
Enjoyable as usual. Great job Tom,
Lovely video Tom, anytime I can here you voice and running water, my stress seams to melt away.
Thanks Debbie, always glad that my videos can have that effect. 🙂
What a nice afternoon surprise! Thank you
Thanks Lisa, I hope your have a pleasant evening afterwards. There's a lovely sunset happening here. 🙂
Hej from Denmark
Thank you for the walk. I enjoy the nature and the stuff you are finding. I can see a little café table whit our small copper things laid as mosaik. And glass over. As a garden table.
😊😊
Your videos bring calm. I love them. Thank you.
Thanks for including this of last year. I do enjoy the hunt and all finds. Walt
Thanks Walt, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully I'll get round to editing all the videos I shot last year (and shoot many more this year). 🙂
I've never seen a bottle stopper that deep blue it's gorgeous
Thank you, Tom. Your videos are amazing and always missed in the interim.
Cool. If you found the bottles, you can give your friends have some that they can study the history and can use for projects. 🙂
Beautiful adventure on a lovely day!! 🦘
It's so nice and quiet where you live. ☺️ And your videos are interesting and relaxing. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us 👍🏼❤️.
It's always interesting to see what our presenters are doing other then what they put up on their channel. Have you considered displaying some of your art work? 🤔🎨🖼
What a lot of interesting finds! And a beautiful day for finding them.
Augmentation video would be fun to watch, yes, yes!! You have such a lovely view, WOW!
Thanks, I'll get the box of figurines out for some augmentations soon 🙂
The round ring like thing with notches is a part to an umbrella. Nice soothing search! ✌🏼❤️
What a great cache of metal finds in this video, Tom! I appreciate your restrained cleaning of these interesting historical bits and bobs! Thank you for continuing to provide such consistently entertaining content! Cheers from NE Florida.
Bottle stoppers would be a great giveaway idea yes. They’re small, tactile and easily packaged up for ease of transportation.
Thanks Emily, I haven't got a giveaway planned yet, but I'll include some nice bottlestoppers. 🙂
It’s midnight and I’m still awake working on craft projects and happy to be joining you on your trip. I hope you are keeping well Tom and thank you 🙂
Window latch and pulley, my first thought and wild guess was sash windows fittings🙂
Tom,
I enjoy "The Bleak MIdwinter",
but Spring and pre summer Yorkshire are a joy to behold!
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Delightful video with for me, some lovely finds. Best of all....your voice, its so calm and reassuring, thank you! June, Coventry UK.
Oh joy of joys , a dig with Tom 🙏
Your voice stays relatively calm, but your hands show the excitement as you find find more and more..and then the voice speeds up. 😊😊
Poor unfortunates made me laugh ; inks are my favourites and thats my next video ; a bit chucked together but editing or beach . Beach wins today.
Hello 👋 from New York USA you Found Some Amazing Finds my Favorite Definitely Was the Little Stoneware mustard jar 🫙 and the Glass Bottle Stoppers Thank you for Bringing me Along with you I can't wait to see What you Find Next 😊
Please please create a Patreon! That berry spoon was lovely! I want to watch craft making videos. Any content you make I will watch!
“That thing” that you find a lot of is from either an umbrella or parasol. As a detecorist I too find a lot of them!
Ah, yes... thank you! I thought I had a glimmer of recognition about them, but couldn't place them. 🙂
Lovely video Tom as ever ! Tryed watching when you posted yesterday but it was so relaxing with birds , river flowing you talking in your gentle voice it became a struggle then your music started .. I was out for the count 😂. Keep doing what your doing ! Your a tonic x
Good evening Tom
I hope you’re well my friend 😊
Good evening Emily, I'm reasonably well thanks, hope you are too. 🙂
Another amazing calming video. Take care and thank you for sharing 👍🙏❤️
Very nice outing. You left the Victorian hot water bottle! Someone will visit behind you. Your videos have an asmr quality, that i enjoy. Location is dreamy.
Your voice is wonderful 😊🎉so many treasures
Nice finds buddy got me in the mood for a bank holiday deus detecting session
If what you were doing wasn't so intriguing I could fall asleep to your voice😂❤❤❤
A up Tom another adventure for you and us. We love your videos. Can't get anuf. Love them all.. thanks from Steven from pontefract Castle..🎉🎉
Thanks Steven, I'm glad you like them. Hope to get over your way for a mudlark someday 🙂
Your videos are very relaxing, lovely voice and love to hear your choice of words.
Thank you, I'm glad you find them relaxing. 🙂
You could make little incense ( cone ) burners out of the clay pipes by turning the pipes upside down with the cone lit inside them. That way some of the smoke would come out of the hole where the stem was. Hope that makes sense . I suggested that to the Northen Mud larkers too. Love to all xx
Hi Tom you have ignited my interest because I collect little bits and bobs . I’m a bit disabled but I would love to go mud larking with you! You are so interesting! Thank you kindly!
I'd love to be in the UK again, mudlarking. Old dumpsites are so fun to look through but even better near the water! :) thanks
Small metal finds are the best!! Great vid Tom 👏
I agree, love a good metal patch and the things I finds in them.🙂 Hope you're doing well, not too stressed by school
I've missed your videos. I love the piece of Shirley brass and see if could become a lovely bangle bracelet with some polishing .It would be a gorgeous treasure
My first time to this channel. Very interesting. Thank you for the walk.
Ah, yes. I love the "secretive vs reclusive" comment. I can relate, too.
For some reason I'm reminded of Liam Neeson when you speak.
Thanks for the wander Tom. It as lovely. 🇨🇦
That blue bottle stopper on this lark is absolutely gorgeous, Tom! I’ve not seen a one quite like it on any mudlarking video.
OMG I've never seen a glass battery in my life
Lovely to come inside from potting up plants and have your video pop up to relax with.👍
Thanks JJ, I hope your plants (and you) thrive this year. 🙂
🌞so many beautiful things 🌞
Hello there Tom and thank you again for a most interesting video !! What a lot you got !!
I was instantly fascinated by that pipe bowl with the fake Dublin adress.
I had no idea that this type of bowl would be acceptable back in those days!
Thank you for always venturing out to explore!
There's something about finding things to repurpose I guess it's keeping the creative mind flowing and the treasure hunter exploring. 16:30 is a umbrella/parasol slide.
so nice tonight (saturday 27 may) to find this video from you. Made my evening!
Hello Tom. So glad to see you again.
Thanks Pat, glad to see your comment too. 🙂
Hi Tom, thanks for the info on the Slingers bottle, I could find nothing. Of course I love anything related to my village lol. I love the Queens coronation pin, an amazing find! I'm glad the land is being given over to wildlife but I do hope the remove all the lead first, there is so much of it there. It will be a huge operation! Lovely video 😀💗 x
Hello from Colorado USA. Would be interesting to see you make a Wind Art project out of the larger pieces of metal you find. Wind Art is wonderful. Maybe a weather vane Wind Art. Copper and Brass makes beautiful Art.
It was great to get a notification from you ! Haven’t got one in a while ! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Hello Mr. Burleigh was nice larking around with you,i loved the beautiful scenery,i have missed you,my phone had broken a while back and i lost a lot of channels i couldnt remember what the names were,so nice to see all the interesting things you were finding again,gotta love that view out your window, be waiting for next video,happy hunting to you,from coast of Texas,usa.
Another wonderful trek today. That canal area is a great spot to detect and explore the field. Always a great video to watch. Hope you are well and your household are also well. See you on the next Tom. Enjoy the upcoming weekend, and the week ahead! Cheers Tom! ❤😊
Hello! Tom. Thanks for the video always enjoy them. which I was there.
Thanks Alma, I'm glad you like them. 🙂
Thank you for taking us on a journey with you. I am so calm great metal patches. And the snake buckle Gale from Northern mudlarks found 2 little ones
Loved the toy solider Tom and the location looks very relaxing and peaceful 🙌 Just before you mentioned about ASMR, Collette just said before that. “He would be good at doing an ASMR video” Lots of lovely little pieces of brass as well. Snake buckle from the old snake belts, That took me back to the 70s haha. Nice video Tom. Lovely spot 👍
I think if I owned all those bottles and bottle stoppers then on some stormy night I'd try to match them up. Being retired, I have the luxury of time. Thank you. Always pleased to see a new video come up. (I watch the older ones, too.)
There's a slight issue with that, the glass ones were often made smaller than the bottle necks, and padded around with a ring made of cork, (which rarely survives). I've found stoppers that fit certain bottles, but they're rarely a genuine match. Vulcanite ones are different, but somehow not as fun to find.
I'm glad you can enjoy my older videos too, and thank you so much for your kindness and generosity 🙂
Love the outing, eager to be inspired by you creating up upcycles
Wonderful finds today! As an ardent rock hound, I am fascinated and interested in your local layered slate rocks. Also; as a collector of blue ephemera, especially blue-green, turquoisy blues, I am palpably frustrated at not being able to pick them up myself!
Thanks!
Thanks Artie 🙂
Wonderful video. Thank you Tom. 🙂
Thanks oceanluvngal, I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
