    Six fox cubs! How amazing! We feed the local foxes and the badgers living under our back garden. They bring their babies into the garden to see us. My cats are fascinated by them all. We've also had baby deer and baby boar. Wildlife is so precious!

    • @lechatel
      @lechatel 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      A word of caution. A baby boar looks very sweet but invariably means a mamma boar is closeby. They get very defensive of their offspring and that is extremely dangerous.So only watch the baby boar from a distance. I know this from firsthand experience. I live surround by boar and once had a serious run-in with a female boar when its youngster came out of a crop of wheat right by the path beside our house.

      @@lechatel I agree, I was watching the baby boar safely from the other side of my fence - they were in the corn field behind my house. Luckily I had my camera handy and videoed her. Never get between a boar and her baby - or any animal and her baby. We only get the boar when there's corn and they can hide in it but she came right up to the fence because their eyesight is so poor. She wandered back off into the field. Are you in FoD by any chance?

      @@BeaEss No. We are in Normandie. (Though I know they get boar in the Forest of Dean.) There has been an explosion of boar numbers in recent years-probably down to the increased growing of maize. We get wolves now, too. (One thing leads to another.)

    Hello Si, I'm the little old lady from the States who wants to adopt you...I watch one of your episodes before I retire for the evening hoping I'll dream of going with you on one of your adventures. I love that you found that old Mallet bottle, I went on bottle digs many times in my earlier years and still have many of those I found. I learn a lot of history from you finds as well, and love also that you include your lovely kitties and chooks in your vids as well. Thank you for vicariously bringing me along and cheers to you, continue on finding wonderful things and turning some of them into your crafty artsy items!

      Agreed, it does look great. My only suggestion would have been for a lower wattage bulb, as the one Si used appeared to take out the detail from the embossing - although this could just have been a flaring effect when the camera was pointed at it. That fox cub video would be an internet breaker if posted independently! I really respect his care for wildlife and the environment in general.

    Hi Si, in the 50’s and 60’s my dad was a farm tractor driver and when ploughing fields, he would often take a walk along the freshly turned furrows specifically to look for fossils but would often find pieces of old pottery and Roman mosaic floor tiles, as well as interesting fossils and other metal objects. I wish I had kept his collection.

    Regarding your bottle lamp. I am not a mudlark because I live in the desert and the only river around here is underground most of the year, until we get monsoon rains and flash floods, then the river is a b17{h, I am a history nerd and rock-hound though. A few years ago I found an old (5 inches-ish tall??) teal glass power line insulator, you likely have something similar in the UK from back in the day. I do not know the age, but my dad turned it into a snazzy night light for me. In the area there used to be a now defunct railroad (cargo) that was torn up during WW2 for the iron rails. He turned a 3/4 inch octagon of wood, with short blocks for feet into the base, with a hole for the bulb and cord with decorative brass pins to keep the insulator from sliding around on top and an on/off clicker. I love it, even if other people think it looks gaudy.

    Si, for your Slopers bottle lamp I'd suggest glazing his nose red with a translucent paint like thinned down nail polish or acrylic artists' paint. If you were to try that then a perhaps a less yellow bulb would really show off his bulbous nose!
    When you talked about making it into a lamp with the wood bottom, I had imagined it having a very small light bulb at the wood end with the finished lamp just sitting on a table or shelf. Perhaps that approach could be an option for another bottle with a missing (or cut off) bottom.
