Is the orange heart for mud lovers and HHH? or "the dread pirate red bleeps!"
Hi can I ask, How comes the graves are really deep in the layers? The Old Boy would look amazing as art in the garden. Can you pick me one up next time your down there. lmso
@@corbinbacon9043 🐾=mud 🧡=lovers
@@victoriawest Because they buried them 6ft deep. The buoys wouldn’t budge an inch
@@Sifinds lol it looked taller than 6ft. opps lol
No one has ever found a living man stuck in the mud before! What a beautiful find! And he was all in one piece. No broken bits! lol!
hehe Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Kris, 'why do you not have thighs like an Amazonian wench".
Simon, "oh i have".
Best laugh of the day....🤣
lol, Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
So glad you are back - a week without a Si video is terrible! Looked like a great outing except for the rain. Thanks for the video!
Thanks so much Thekla! Nice long one for ya 😳😂👍🏻🐾🧡
I agree. I have to get my weekly Si-Finds fix.
I agree they not long enough xx
Has it only been a week??! Seems like a month at least!!! Lol
That was so fun! You and Addicted to Bleeps are a natural comedy duo! Thanks, Simon for taking us along!
Cheers K Pax! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Yes Si , it’s a golden bullet suppository , belongs in the royal arsenal 🤔🍻
Hahahaaaa!!!! That is very clever.
Yes!! haha 😊👍🏻👣🧡
😂😂😂😂😂
The bullet looks like a lazer pen
What a commitment, love it
Love this collab! Kris is fab 🙌🏼
Cheers Emma 👍🏻🐾🧡
Thanks for putting up with the rain and cold to give us a great video. Beautiful ginger beer bottle and upcycled necklace. Have a great week Si.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Good grief! I misread that comment. I read "Beautiful ginger and upcycled necklace". I thought the ginger you referred to, was Si' friend, Kris!!!
@@sarahmcgregor6006 😁
1:02 Your impression of Kris had me in stitches 🤣 Spot on!
Glad to have you back 🥰 Portsmouth has been added to my list of places to go exploring!
Cheers Beth! 😂 I had fun with that one. Still lots to explore too! 👍🏻🐾🧡
OMG Kris is brilliant! You're brilliant! Everyone is brilliant!
Shame about the rain but still a brilliant video as always!
Wish I was lucky enough to go mudlarking with you 🙌
Cheers Maarina 👍🏻🐾🧡
Si, you must have a really brilliant sense of balance.
Like a mountain goat 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Convicts that were transported to Australia back in the day had to wear clothes stencilled with the broad arrow. It is a significant part of our history.
indeed
Yes, Robyn, i came to the comments to add that about the arrow and convicts. Imagine the extra stench when they were interring bodies overboard of the hulks. I wonder if there’s a link to what the archaeologists found?
I love Kris's excitement. I'm new to detecting as well and have the same excitement when it comes to learning/talking about and discovering anything historical. As I live in Northumberland, Pennsylvania, USA, a bucket list experience is to one day mudlark the River Thames aa well as walk medieval ruins!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I always look forward to Sunday afternoons for yours and Nicola’s videos 🥰
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great finds ! Simon You are so funny 😆 , 🧡👣🐾
Aw thanks Essie 👍🏻🐾🧡
Fantastic Simon & Kris! Lovely ginger Simon, such a beautiful anchor pictorial. (Obviously)
Cheers Ad - biggest one I've ever seen out in the wild! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Love when you get together with your friends Si.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
You truly are a dedicated mudlarker/beeper being out in all weather's with your mates. You had some good finds and love the necklace you made. You're really talented Si. Thanks for the video xx
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Legends all, challenging weather, but awesome history. Thanks for bringing us along this Sunday morning ! love the pendant !! x
Cheers Michelle 👍🏻🐾🧡
🤣excuse me "where is slimming world" ..bless her,.. great video guys 🖤🤘
lol. Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I really enjoyed this video Simon. Thank you.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
That skull looks like it’s been through an autopsy!!! Did they do that on prison ships??? I think it’s something more sinister xxx
Yes looks like an autopsy
Don't be scared you look great in those glasses!!!
I agree!
Thanks Si. You guys are made of strong stuff to withstand such conditions 👏 😄. Prison graves? That one skull showed signs of autopsy. The skull cap was neatly sawed off the skull. Doubt if the prisoner was used for learning purposes it would have been interred so neatly. Always thought those used for medical dissection were just chucked in a pit when finished with. 🤔. Cheers.😻
Thanks Annette - yes I noticed that too. There’s some fantastic web pages written about the skeletons found on Rat Island worth reading. Cheers 👍🏻🐾🧡
@@Sifinds I'll look them up. Thanks 💜
The mystery item was a smoking pipe the bit you unscrewed then screwed in to the hole at the side to make a pipe bowl. A friend told me lol 😂
I just did a Google lens search, it came right up.
Ah so I was close. Cheers! 👍🏻🐾🧡
@@Sifinds yes it’s a pipe. But I didn’t need to consult a friend on what it was though. 😉
Yup, reminder of a mispent youth!
Oh wow I was totally addicted to your friends Tv show! The journey they rook us on with the military history was awesome!! I wished they were many more seasons!!!!
Good wasn't it
@@Sifinds unfortunately the producers were assholes and made it sound like they were robbing nazi wargraves, which created massive controversy.
Do you have a link or the channel name? I'd like to check it out.
You are so creative! Love the heart pendant. The blue bead sets it off.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
The warships are awesome. Kris is such a larrikin, just lives for the moment. What fun for all of you today. The little heart may have come off a jewellery box or trinket box. Rat Island sounds fascinating. I love history.
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
May I say, Kris, those frames do totally suit you! Very bookish and sly. Great Collab!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Wow, Si, a treat. Thanks dude!
Enjoy Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Also glad you're back Si👍😊 missed your videos!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Thanks for the day out Si. It looked really cold🥶
So glad you’re back. Some nice military finds. Your necklace turned out really great. Take care and enjoyed Addicted to Bleeps there too. 🦋
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Love Chris. Glad to see the antics. Slimming world was code to your glasses made you look skinny lol. Fun day!
haha
Oldie but a goodie so worth watching over and over again.
You know I suspect some of the musket and pistol balls that mudlarkers find are just fishing weights. They're known as 'drilled bullets' and until fairly recently were made of lead and the hole drilled through them closes up very easily, I have loads that I can no longer find the original hole and have to drill a new one.
I would tend to agree with you… but none had holes at all. They could equally be shrapnel balls, but the Minnie bullets came just after musket balls so I believe they were those. Cheers 👍🏻🐾🧡
Thanks for sharing another mud adventure. So nice to see friends having fun together even in the rain. The heart necklace is beautiful. Amazing what stunning pieces can be created from found relics. Have a great week and please keep safe! ❤️🇨🇦
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
4:53 Those glasses are awesome, they take you 80 years into the future! 😮🤣 Love it when you join up with Kris, great times. You are lucky to explore some interesting areas there
Cheers Brett. Yeah Google Glass has nothing on them
You guys had me crackin up. Kris was so excited, it was really cute, lol. Yes, those glasses really do suit him!
The belt clip/ key thing and buckle with the hole at the end are both from a WW2 gas mask bag strap.
The loop on the buckle is to attach it to a brass hook on the bag
I wonder if they're from the same bag.
Thanks Paul!
The brass heart could have been part of a diy fishing lure, the double-hole side would have likely dangled tri-hooks.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Oh my goodness, what unpleasant weather for a lark, some great finds though, love the necklace.
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Hi all, brilliant post Si thnx heaps ...🦘🇭🇲🇬🇧🦘
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Wow, the video from the camera glasses is very Blair Witch Project. I dig it!
Cheers Mudlover! Something a bit different 😊👍🏻👣🧡
That heart pendant is beautiful
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Oh how I love to see you all in the gooey mud! 🤣No one hurt so it's all good! You are so fearless in going to places that most would not venture! Awesome! Please be careful and stay safe! ❤❤
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Hello 👋 from New York USA you found some amazing finds that Brass Heart ❤️ Pendant came out Beautiful Thank you for bringing me along with you on you're Mudlarking Adventure I can't wait to see where and What you Find next 😀 😊
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Top show, I do so enjoy when you and bleeps get to mucking about!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great stuff, Si! You and Kris are like the Morecambe and Wise of mud-larking! More adventures, please, of the Dynamic Duo! Kris's videos are also excellent, especially the one in which he spent a night in the (allegedly) haunted deep shelter...that was unnerving to watch, let alone stay there for several hours in the dark.👀 As ever, many thanks!
He was crazy for even attempting that one. He's always good for a laugh.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Those glasses are actually pretty good, for nothing! Love Kris. Great fun. Pipe bulb😂.Looking forward to seeing you on tv this week Si . Next step I’m a Celebrity…
I think they are good for private investigators, for £8 you get pretty reasonable sound and vision. Not the best for TH-cam though lol
@@Sifinds the quality was good, especially as you paid £0!
I have been a fan for a year now and I live in Gosport it's so cool seeing my hometown on your videos
Thanks for watching! Let me know if you hear of any good Mudlarking spots and I’ll be back
Actually, upon reconsideration, I could do with a few visits to Slimming World.
😂😂😂
This video was very entertaining! You guys are just a hoot! Enjoyed your crafting of the necklace! Very cool!
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
hope your weekend has gone well thank you for sharing 👍
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Yeah, a New Si upload. 🤘👍
Enjoy Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Re balls on Burrow (Rat) Island. I have an ancestor who was an Engineer with the Royal Engineers Submarine Mining based in Gosport in the early 1900’s. They made and tested underwater mines. There are some good photos and info online. They certainly look like mines. Pre WW1.
Oh really!!!
Kris is adorable!
He’s great! He can come again!
deplorable you mean lol
@@Sifinds Si you are not adorable... you are just handsome!
Your creations from mudlarking findings are charming and exquisite! I hope your work is signed, as they will undoubtedly become collectors treasures : )
Thanks so much!
You men have the best senses of humor, it's a delight to watch and listen to you. I think that mudlarkers and detectorists must be the most jolly, lovely people of all. Keep up the great work!
Oh man, I laughed so hard when the stuck boots section happened!😂😂😂Thanks for great video!❤❤
😂 You’re welcome
Thank you.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
So interesting to watch you mudlarking in a different area . Fascinating stuff as always ! Thanks for sharing .
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Those aircraft carriers get all the more impressive the closer you get to them- the size is gobsmacking. I worked on building both of them in Rosyth so have been all over them, sadly before the aircraft and other really fun stuff came onboard.
Did you read about the aircraft that ‘fell off’ it 🙈
@@Sifinds I didn't! I kept an eye on them both for a year or two after the PoW left but haven't seen much since. I'll have to look that up though.
@@MrTumshie it’s great that Si attracts such diversity of viewers! Sounds like you had an amazing career making those things.
That bullet shaped thing is a pipe. Unscrew the end, turn it upright then screw it back in. It's modern, used to smoke dope. Kinda cool.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Amazing lark, Si!
Huge area to cover, with so much past
..gotta go back! 😊
Love the pendant ❤
hello from Denmark 🌸 🌱
Cheers Z! Yes soo much more land to cover - next time by Hovercraft
Could be a practice round. The military and police use them to stimulate malfunction in a weapon. This is to learn to clear the malfunction quickly and safely.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Si I like your friend Chris! Looks like you all had fun!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I so love watching your videos.... you give such great information. Well done.... from Stockbridge Michigan USA 🇺🇸💖🍺🍻🍀
And from Pittsburgh, PA
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
The scene of the stuck boot was so hilarious 😂 taken care of by true professionals! I’m pretty sure I would have freaked. Never do this alone! lol
So happy to see you & Kris back out together, you guys are so funny & I hope to see you two do more collabs in the future, some great finds & love your upcycling
Cheers Lauren 👍🏻🐾🧡
Wow, talk about wet and windy. Good finds though, especially the little heart and the ginger beer bottle. Have you found out what the bullet shaped item was? Pen? Secret weapon? 😀
Cheers Coni! Ah hash pipe it seems 😊👍🏻👣🧡
I'm glad to see that you do make nice things from your finds. I would like to give you an idea for a Christmas pendant use the bowl of a pipe and a bead. Drill a hole in the thick part of the bowl to put a big jump ring and using a found bead for the clacker and you have a bell. I'm sure I don't have to tell you more than that.. hope to see if you try it.. Good luck with you adventures.
Great idea
yessssss!! you guys have a plethora of history around you and just days and days ( weeks, months, years)worth of mudlarking!
This was a pretty cute and fun video. Your buddy has a lot a personality :)
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Awesome colab with your lovely friend. You guys ROCK my Sunday evening. Awesome findings.....( but was looking for some token ) . As I was enjoying my Vodka ( Absolut Peppar, Sweden brand) . Your video made it more special. Lovely upcycle. Really enjoyed. I remember my father's key chain tag ( S C BANIK NLN - 8133) His Vespa registration number in brass .
You really ROCK. Enjoy your life.
With Love from SAM
Guwahati Assam INDIA 🙏❤🥃
Cheers Sam! Keep on running - wicked key chain brother
Great video, thanks Si 😊
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
First & last stay in Portsmouth was Silver Jubilee summer of '77. Here we are in the Platinum Jubilee! God save our Queen!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Ohhh, nooo! You wanted that anchor for your collection 🤩🤣
Thought I saw sleet and snow?
If I could've lifted it - sure!
Cool -- riffing a little bit of Monty Python there at the beginning! Definitely bring Chris along in the future!!!!!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Great video lads, thought when that woman asked where slimming world was, Chris was about to say sorry we're not Fat 🤣😂
love your mate Chris he looks a great laugh
You and your friends always have so much fun all while finding interesting things! So good to see you returned from your trip and back in the muck! ☀️
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
A very nice interesting video today. A very usual site top explore. Thanks for the tour today. Cheers Si.
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Cartridge tops would make great little drawer knobs Si 😀👍
You keep your knobs out of this, haha. Thats actually a cool idea
😂

Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Sitting in the warmth enjoying all your finds. Brilliant.

I live below those chalk pits behind you in the video, I've watched for a while and had absolutely no idea you was here. Maybe i wasn't listening hard enough but i did a double take when i see the chalk pits. Thanks for the video guys!
Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Brilliant finds fellas! Your mate Kris is a hoot! Have to say the stoneware bottles and containers are some of my favorites. If you are able, are their plans to mudlark the Rosyth area?
You could check out @northern Mudlarks I believe they have visited this stretch. But if you find any good spots please get in touch, I’m often up that way
Awesome video Si with some awesome finds. Take care and thank you for sharing 👍👏❤️
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
Cool video! The heart necklace is neat. It could have originally been part of a handmade rosary.
Good shout - Cheers Mudlover! 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Hey Si! Well that was alot of fun! Thanks for taking me along! TFS Hugs!
Cheers Mudlover! 👍🏻🐾🧡
