For so many centuries, people have struggled to stay alive along those shores. I always try to imagine what they would say if someone would have told them that one day people would walk along the shores, just looking for things lost, as a hobby. History fascinates me and I love your channel!
Simon, I do believe you are becoming to bottles what Nicola is to clay pipes! I really enjoy your excitement when you find a really fine example, as you did in this video.Great job, mate!
The white ceramic bottle with the pouring lip at 6:40 looks like a master ink bottle. They were used to fill individual ink wells at multiple desks . They are highly collectible here in the States with some going for as much as $200.
For a good part of my life when I lived in the UK I was a builder. You'd be amazed at the number of jars and bottles we would find when digging footings for extensions on older houses and a lot of them were the old marmalade jars. Britain must have cornered the marmalade market at some time.
All this stuff comes from the contents of London dustbins from victorian times. They used the cinders from the open fires that were dumped on the Medway and Thames forshore to add to the clay in the brick making trade . If you look at the old yellow london bricks you will see little bits of cinder in them. This was to increase the heat in the kiln process. Of course other things went in the bins ie bottles broken crockery etc and food waste. The piles of waste wghere left untill the organic matter rotted away and then used
The original food wasn’t made from oranges, but from quinces. These were cooked with honey and in the process the unpromising bitter green fruit was transformed into a sweet pink paste, which was stiff enough to be cut with a knife and be served in slices as a kind of dessert. The first of these preserves were made in Portugal and were called marmelada, from the word for quince in Portuguese, marmelo.
Hey Si Finds, I don't ever tire of watching a Mucker like yourself. I will be watching and waiting for whatever you find! Take Care Brother Simon and Luck Inna Muck! I'll be watching you! Hey, that's a Sting song. DaveyJO
The way you showed your cleaned up finds was so cool. You are really dedicated there. That is a lot of hard walking to get to those many containers; squidging through the mud makes it even more so. Both you guys legs must be toned as can be 👍 Awesome finds Si and Darrell. Awesome. Loved the video.
Another great vid Si!! One thing did occur to me. If the tide suddenly started to come in the pair of you trying to run through all that mud with your buckets swinging and the bottles jumping up and down lol.
Y'all were really in the muck today. Great wash up and presentation. The bottle colors are beautiful. Please wear gloves. Afraid you will something yucky from the muck. Love your videos.
Great video boys, thank you taking us along. What a great way to show your finds after the cleanup, the lighting effect really picks out the details. My favourite this week has to be the marmalade jars - beautiful patina.
De don't find too many Dundee Marmalade jars here in the US, but I did find one. My mom begged me for it to use as a toothbrush holder. A few years later her house burned down and it was about the only thing that survived intact. Awesome video! Hope you and your friends find a gold hoard!!!!Gold Queen Anne Guineas would be nice. 😃
You all work your buns off trekking through the mud the way you do as an example in this video. I am impressed. I love the crackling on that marmalade jar. I would take a broken one of those and cut out circles or other shapes to make pendants or gems for other things. BTW, having used lots of diamond blades such as the one you cut the shell with you will find the best luck with a stream of water keeping it and the object cool. You won't lose the diamond from the bit, and there is less chance of breakage. I love what you are doing with your upcycling, very inspiring!
autonomous sensory meridian response ... just search ASMR on youtube, preferable with your earbuds in, there are a million examples as it's a fad right now (and I was just kidding with Si because of all the loud slurping mud noises he was making)
Wow. Split Splot ! You got a lot ! Terrific looking 🚶 walk on the mudflats. Your legs must be killing you - love the waking platforms. Beautiful day for a discovery walk around.
The tear to my eye when you found the Dundee marmalade. That was my very first find privy digging in the Pacific Northwest USA. Enjoy your work keep it up thanks again for the Memories rekindled
Yes I could go a stubbie too its hard work watching you guys! Incidentally not only do we have schooners but also a butcher a smaller glass don't know the size. Cheers & thank you from Oz
I've got an A.1. Sauce bottle in my refrigerator that looks pretty much the same, except with no embossing. 😁 Interesting to see the different bottles, thanks for sharing 👍.
Hey Si, a schooner in Australia is a 425ml glass of grog. In between a Half-Pint (a pot) and a Pint. A stubbie is a 375ml bottle of beer, and its bloody cool you have stubbies too. Cheers Mate P.S I found my clay pipe which I travelled so far for thanks to you... as for the license, I seriously thought you were having a laugh. Madness!
You must own a museum for your finds. Or else you sell them. I love your video's: The thrill of the hunt. We learn more about our ancestors by looking at what they threw away or lost. I have never been to London & maybe never will. If I did I would consider my time to be better spent on the shore of the Thames mudlarking with you & learning about the London of the past.
Gosh, you make me want to go mudlarking. Do you metal detect those wrecks? That iridescent bottle was awesome. And the two following also. The Williams and Dean and the other one. Good finds today. The Eye and the Mucker, a good pair, lol.
Glad to see that you have new and better mud spreaders on your feet. Much better than the broken ones in the video with Nicola. Have you ever thought about making a mud sled similar to a snow sled to pull your finds in? You could use bungees to tie down buckets to place bottles in and or boxes. Could be better than pack and carry. May work or not but an idea out. Bottles are good but the pots are better! 😊 Great collaboration with your friend. Blessings
In Sydney Australia a schooner is the most popular sized beer in most pubs it’s 425ml as opposed to a pint which is 570ml A stubbie is a bottle of beer which holds approx the same
I was most disappointed on moving to South Australia - the schooner is only 285 ml. A pint is 452 mls and oddest of them all (and swallowed in a couple of gulps) the butcher at 180 - 200 mls. Even smaller is a pony at 140 mls - the ladies used to order a pony of sherry or port.
Such beautiful glass...it's sort of like finding a beautiful gemstone in another form of mining or prospecting. A small gold nugget or an aquamarine gemstone perhaps. Nice job you have Simon.
@@Sifinds I know that, I have a hobby that pays for itself. i enjoy it, it's what I was meant to do I feel. Keep doin' what you're doin', you do it well. All your friends do too...Nice hobby for sure.
its fun to imagine what that same scene looked like maybe 50 or 75 years ago when very likely those wrecks were much more intact just sitting out there rotting away.and the things you'd find!
Just before you say "whiskey bottle boys", there were two large round coin looking things next to a piece of glass beside the seaweed at 12:12, at the bottom of my screen. I love the marmalade jar. The crazing of the glaze is so pretty! And for it to be in that small of chips, its been in the river since it was emptied, the 1800's. Those mud shoes make a funny sucking sound, but bet they save a lot of energy walking those marshes.
He’s using “Mudders” at 20:02 to walk that muddy ditch. I used them to duck hunt here in Louisiana and also while surveying the marsh. They work best if you are ankle deep in water. I, at 270 pounds, could run across mud that I would otherwise sink up my eyeballs in. What an amazing tool/boot. When one of the wings breaks, your ankle is screwed though. I’ve broken a few from tromping on grass. Thanks for a great video.

Great bottle finds,watching your videos,and Nicola Whites videos are truly Stress relievers.Thank You.
I love the squishy noises, they are relaxation.
And the bloop bloop
And the bloop bloop
What a lovely adventure today. I love when you use those mud shoes. What a great invention. Thanks so very much for taking us along.
That was truly amazing. What incredible finds. The marmalade pieces are fantastic! TY Si!

Britain must have cornered the marmalade market at some time.
HaHa, yes they are really common, we must have loved the stuff!
My allotment seems to have loads of those buried in it.
Cracking video Si 😎

Thanks for the opportunity to meet old timer John. Fascinating stories. He had a real grip on his coonectiopn to and his part in
Well done lads, yesterday's throwaways todays history, clean up well and lovely to look at. Thanks for sharing.
Am amazed at all your golden oldies you find.. Awesome.
Turntable is a great way to show off your bottles, brilliant! Love the paste jar
Hey Si Finds, I don't ever tire of watching a Mucker like yourself. I will be watching and waiting for whatever you find! Take Care Brother Simon and Luck Inna Muck! I'll be watching you! Hey, that's a Sting song. DaveyJO

Some of those are absolutely beautiful
Some beautiful finds, Si! Congratulations!
nice to see Thames Iron Works. Be interesting to see what you find.
Another great vid Si!! One thing did occur to me. If the tide suddenly started to come in the pair of you trying to run through all that mud with your buckets swinging and the bottles jumping up and down lol.
Loved every minute of this video I think if I was larking in the mud I would want to take every bottle I found lol tfs xx
Enjoyed mudlarking with you... great finds and presentation..
The 1862 Marmalade crock was by far the best find of the day! A very nice hunt and thank you and take care!
Hiya Si nice little hunt mate , and the finds cleaned up lovely, thanks for taking us along 👍🇮🇪
Cheers Sid!
Y'all were really in the muck today. Great wash up and presentation. The bottle colors are beautiful. Please wear gloves. Afraid you will something yucky from the muck. Love your videos.
PROPER MUD LARKING!!! RESPECT!! Some Lovely Finds 👌
The mud sounds are oddly satisfying yet very moist.
Great video boys, thank you taking us along. What a great way to show your finds after the cleanup, the lighting effect really picks out the details. My favourite this week has to be the marmalade jars - beautiful patina.
I know I'm almost a year late, but sometimes I think "let's get stuck in the muck" would be a more accurate motto
Great finds guys! "You couldn't catch a cold."...bwahahaha!! Love the 'clean up' !!
Thanks for taking us along on your slog through the mud. Nice finds
Some lovely finds, and you got to play in the muck even more than on the foreshore! The squelching noises definitely add to the video. 😆
stunning finds mud-blokes! mud on ya!
I love your work. Hello from Spain!
Emilio mortera piorno Thanks Senor!!

Thanks Dustin, yeah one day I will find a gold coin! I'll have fun trying in the meantime!
Thanks for another fine video with lovely bottle finds :)
Thanks Si. Beautiful day for a lark.
Excellent video and beautiful bottles, loved the marmalade jar👍♥️🌞✌️
That mud was pretty tricky! Thank you for a great Mudlark.. You guys are great Thank you from Boston
Never leave a man behind just watch him struggle. 😅
Cool bottles and containers... I would have picked them all! 😁

Thanks Si, very muddy but interesting finds.❤️☮️🇨🇦
Great adventure and some great finds too.. loved it 👍
So......much....mud! Squelches galore and some nice finds. :)
Love your video! So many bottles! Beautiful! I found you while watching Nicola’s videos! Glad I did!
Nice finds! Good squelching noises!💕
yes, you've invented ASMR for the hard of hearing! crazy beautiful crazing on that Dundee jar. Shorts weather long past here, enjoy the warmth!
Marcel Audubon - what is ASMR?

Aww I’m so jealous of all those finds. Maybe one day I can visit the Thames. I’ve tried searching some parts of Glasgow’s river Clyde with no luck. 💗
Another great video bro. Thanks for posting it
Yes I could go a stubbie too its hard work watching you guys! Incidentally not only do we have schooners but also a butcher a smaller glass don't know the size. Cheers & thank you from Oz
Mate absolutely awesome video really enjoyed watching this! Some fantastic finds there, subscribed!
Love to go to London one day. If I do I am getting a permit to try some mud larking while there.
Love your videos thank you for sharing all your adventures
Jaclyn Isaacs Aw thanks!
Awesome bottle finds!!!!
Definitely beautiful bottles
That is an awesome bottle very beautiful
I've got an A.1. Sauce bottle in my refrigerator that looks pretty much the same, except with no embossing. 😁 Interesting to see the different bottles, thanks for sharing 👍.
I always thought A One (A 1) sauce was an American brand, but I guess they sell in in the UK as well.
Enjoyed video, and very interesting finds,
The marmalade jars are gorgeous. 😍
Great work again lads! Love those mud shoes, you look part human, part Transformer in them Si 👍
Kevin Cox haha! Mudbots
Those bottles cleaned up beautifully
They're stubbies here in oz too mate!
Hey Si, a schooner in Australia is a 425ml glass of grog. In between a Half-Pint (a pot) and a Pint. A stubbie is a 375ml bottle of beer, and its bloody cool you have stubbies too.

P.S I found my clay pipe which I travelled so far for thanks to you... as for the license, I seriously thought you were having a laugh. Madness!
Great video, great walk,lovely bottles that you both found, go there in another video

Gosh, you make me want to go mudlarking. Do you metal detect those wrecks? That iridescent bottle was awesome. And the two following also. The Williams and Dean and the other one. Good finds today.
The Eye and the Mucker, a good pair, lol.
Great finds!
The marmelade jar is so awesome. Wish I was there with you guys.
Makes me wonder if in 100+ years there will be people mudlarking our junk! So interesting!
All they will find is a heck of a lot of styrofoam takeout containers and boring plastic. Nothing charming about plastic.
Some nice bottles there Si. Another great video! It would be awesome to metal detected that area if it wasn't an impossible pit of mud.
You were really in some serious muck today (slosh, slosh).
great finds !
Love the concrete wellies!
whoa that bottle is beautiful
Glad to see that you have new and better mud spreaders on your feet. Much better than the broken ones in the video with Nicola.

Excellent video Si...but that mud is scary....😄
Omg that marmite jar is my fave, i have a modern one to put all my pens in 😊 only started watching your vids just before xmas and im loving them!

Looks like hard work Simon but it came out to be pretty good day we found some good things you guys stay blessed and I'll see you on your next
Roger Dempsey cheers Rog, Yes was a fun if tiring day!
Apparently, if you’re going to get drunk or have a marmalade sandwich, you’ll need to find a creek first so you can throw your trash into it.
Thanks for this nice video !
Thanks!
I am always amused at the written "translation" of your conversation. I would send it to you if I knew how. I enjoy your adventures any time!
Ah yes the captions - I could edit them but it takes ages - and it amuses you! haha
