- Join us as we go mudlarking in the river. Check out out finds on another Yorkshire adventure.
Right outside our hotel was a river. That was a perfect opportunity for us to pop on our wellies and go explore to see what we could find. The rivers in Yorkshire are ideal for mudlarking as they have so many interesting things.
So come on, pop your wellies on and join us on another mudlarking adventure :)
Join us as we find interesting things to do, see and eat! We have another channel, based on our EBay reselling business. Even so, there is more to life. All work and no play...well, you know the rest.
We love travel, adventure and interesting things to do. We are starting our channel now, with the intention of it becoming full time when we go on the road throughout Europe in our motorhome/RV when we retire in 2 years time. Till then, we are going to find loads of interesting things to do here in the UK.
If you have any suggestions of ideas for us to try out or places to visit, let us know in the comments. We love to hear from our viewers!
We love to metal detect! Do you have some land you would be willing to let us detect on? If so, please let us know :)

Caroline you are a fantastic cinematic photographer and Phil is a great History Teacher !!!! Love you beautiful Mudlarking !!!!
Wow, thank you Colleen, high praise indeed and truly appreciated... It's great to have you with us on our adventures, and wonderful to know that you enjoy them so much... thanks for watching 🙂🙃🐼
I think that roller was probably at one time part of a conveyor belt mechanism, probably an end piece. Could be mistaken, I often am... they are very similar to mangle rollers, just usually narrower. Lovely video as usual Caroline and Phil. 🙂
Thanks Tom :) A conveyor belt mechanism, I'll try to remember that. It's much better than the 'sort of technical' terms I come up with lol
i love how you have fun together!!
Thanks Berta :) We do have a good laugh, usually at Phil falling in the water ;)
Glad you made it. The little piece that was found could be a pen holder. Lovely views of the water & stream.🤠😘😘💪🏽
Thanks Alison, yes! I can see that now you mention it :)
I always enjoy you guys! As soon as I start hearing that lyrical tune that plays when your video starts, I relax. Because I know you all are going to have fun and share your adventures with me! Thank you for taking me along, and will look forward to your RV trips in a couple of years!
Thanks Kathy! It's so good to know you enjoy the videos :) With the aid of our RV, we are hoping to do much more mudlarking and in many more places. I quite fancy spending some time in the Scandinavian countries.
Very nice video and nice people .God Bless y’all and keep you safe till next time ❤️
It's been almost 30 years since I was last in Halifax...your videos are always fun, interesting, and informative, but I also enjoy getting to see where my family is from (and where some still live)...cheers and thanks from Canada!
Thanks Cawfee Bean (great name!) Glad you enjoyed our visit to Halifax. There may be more in the future :)
Very good... smooth and pleasing!
So nice to hear that you enjoyed this video Virginia, thanks for watching 🙂😎🐼
So beautiful there!! Would love to treasure hunt with you two some day!!! Hope you are both staying safe and far away from the pandemic!! Stay healthy. 💕💕😷😷
Thanks Kim, and yes we're so blessed to have such beautiful countryside. We're both well at the moment, but being careful as cases of the virus have been identified in neighboring towns. Thanks for the concern, you take care too. 🙂
Sandwiches ....if id known a picnic was involved 😁 ..all those finds and we have no idea of there history ..exciting x
Picnic? We shall have a garden party , complete with gazebo and live band lol
Well you have had your exercise for the day. No need to go to the gym tonight.
We are super fit now ... or would have been if we hadn't gone home and ate chocolate lol
@@LetsgowithTheJohnsons I was impressed with the way you just powered up that bank. Chocolate has vitamin Ch in. Essential for wading in rivers & powering up banks I expect. It's nutritional qualities discovered by women. Scientists caught on later.
There is amazing birdsong on that video you know, beautiful. I think those shears might be for cutting cloth.
@@sarahstrong7174 Oh yes, us women are well ahead of the crowd when it comes to chocolate :D The birds were very impressive! I think you could be right about those shears.
Phil & Carolina Johnson, you are wonderful ❣️
Aww, thank you Memi :) That is so kind of you.
Fun adventure, well done, very curious stuff indeed. But you'll not get rich finding the odd cog and whatnot!
Thanks Crusty Cobs :) One day, I hope to come across an old gold bar that someone left lying in the river ;)
But they are having fun that’s what matters
Another fab interesting vid. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Lisa :)
Oh we do love a good Premier Inn. A good spot to go exploring! The water channels are really cool. I'm used to more natural water ways.
You never know what you will find in a river. We have a nice one near us that the kids play in and always pull things out.
I do like that tap!!
Thanks Worms Eye View :) Premier Inn are about the same price as Travel Lodges but sooo much nicer :) It was a cute tap!
@@LetsgowithTheJohnsons yeah much better quality and value for money.
@@WormsEyeView I can remember when Premier Inn used to put a sachet of hot chocolate each on the tray too! You don't get that any more lol
@@LetsgowithTheJohnsons no but you do get Twinings tea!!
@@WormsEyeView Yes, very 'a la posh' lol
OMG, you two are adorable!
Aww, thanks Robin :)
A great spot, handy as you like from where you were staying. I love history!! xx Teresa 🇦🇺❤
Yes Teresa, convenient, beautiful and fun... all the qualities needed for a Johnson Video. Glad you liked the history 🙂😎🐼
I loved that skull so much omg
Glad you liked it, we so miss our trips to Yorkshire... thanks for watching 🙂😎🐼
Another great video guys. Love the history associated with your finds. Always look forward to watching your adventures. 😊👍
Thanks Paula :) So glad you enjoy the videos :D
Like the dog skull !
Thanks for watching 🙂😎🐼
great hunt you two. I am a skull person. i use them in my native american crafts. That was a nice one to. It would have been a great find. you really need gloves on. lol hugs
If I could have picked it up, you could have had it, but ewwww, I just can't do bones lol
I was waiting for bats to pop out of nowhere under that bridge. You are brave!
I was worried about rats but didn't think of bats. Phew! That would NOT have been funny! So not brave, just naive lol
Freddy was a good find!
Thanks Kyle :) He was cute :)
I think your mystery object could be fountain pen pen holder from a desk organiser. I remember my Grandpa had on on his desk , it used to swivel around🐼😎🙂
Thanks for the info Charlotte, and thanks for watching 🙂😎🐼
Much fun
Thank you Kathy :)
Glad you both made it to the top. Tell next time
Yes, we made it... team work 🙂😎🐼
At least you don’t have to worry about snakes. When my hubby and I go out, we are always watching out for snakes, mainly copperheads, rattlesnakes and water moccasins. They are found mostly in the hills near us and are quite poisonous. But when we explore locally it is mostly black snakes
That would freak Phil out. He doesn;t even like to see pictures of snakes!!!
That clay piece is a holder for a small cigar.
Thanks for letting us know Lana :)
Loved my time in Yorkshire, had some good larking adventures in the woods near Fountains Abbey and around Harrogate back then
It seems to be an area rich in mudlarking treasure :)
I hope you paid those geese & ducks equity rates for their performance in your video. Thankyou for sharing.
Equity rates? That would have been nice. Those geese drove a hard bargain and we ended up paying them far more than the going rate ;)
@@LetsgowithTheJohnsons A few Geese adds class to a show though. Good job it wasn't Swans, they charge twice as much!
Have you ever made any creation out of the small pieces of pottery you collect from all your wonderfull trips?
I have a nice collection of things all waiting for me to get chance to be creative :) I'm hoping to get some time to start work on a mosaic soon .
Another great adventure! Well climbed! Did the geese shout(honk) encouragement or just hope for an untimely slip down the hill?😁💕
Thanks Jackie beans :) Those geese kept honking away ..... I'm not sure it was 'nice' honking by the evil looks they were giving us lol
Bats in the belfry.x
15.06. The bottom of a dagger sheath. It stopped the knife digging through the leather and falling out. Old. I've seen several mudlarks find and identify these
Thank you seraphsfolly :)
The jawbone could be a fox or small dog, it has lovely carnivore teeth.
Not Caroline's favourite find 😄
Part of a fountain pen.x
Do you have to have a Mudlarks license to walk the town creeks and rivers or only on the Thames? And what did Phil and yourself do before retiring?
We don;t need a license unless it is the Thames. We still have almost a year before fully retiring. Phil is a funeral celebrant and I buy and sell.
looks like a bud vase maybe a pin is missing? I have one similar that has a pin (brooch) 14:50
Thanks Apache Angel :) That's great info.
You could build a proper small nice house with all the rocks and old brick.
Yes, if I could carry them all back we probably could 🙂
Looks like part of a pen holder 14:46
Thanks Norma! Great suggestion :)
Hi,
What's the piece of music called that you use for the introductions ? It's very catchy..
Glad you like the music, it's called Morning Mandolin 🙂
It's part of a pen holder looks like to me
Thanks Vicki 🙂
I think it's part of a pen holder
Yes, it could be... Thanks 🙂😎🐼
don't ogres live under bridges? Hate to see those stripy thingies damaged. Screw driver was about the best find. When are you going to find gold and Diamonds? Your letting the side down LOL.
Well, if there was an ogre there, we must have scared him off lol I keep looking but no gold or diamonds....yet :)
Can the Mrs. read me stories please?
Mmm, maybe we should start a story channel. I wonder how that would go down with people? With my accent, I reckon I could make the creepiest story sound comical lol
@@LetsgowithTheJohnsons Yes, yes, yes! I enjoy audio books very much. I don't have a television and if I did I wouldn't watch it. With audio books or stories you can do other things at the same time.
@@nananaannncy404 Yes, that is the beauty of audio only. I like to have something playing in the background while I work. It passes the time better and can be good company :)
