If your ever feeling down in the dumps, just watch these two ladies and their overflowing excitement and enthusiasm for things you and I may not even notice. On the Scottish waste heap! The things they get into raptures about, with a view to making jewellery or magical creations at some later date! I always come away smiling, because of excitement in finding a marble, also known as “cod marbles!” A broken off dolls ear! Etc etc! You will come away smiling with a different outlook on life! Well done ladies! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙋♀️😘😘💐💕
I can listen to you 2 allll day...So soothing!
In a mad crazy world, You are an Oasis of Calm....🌹🌹
Thank You 2...
Thank you for taking us along, ladies!! 🥰
Sooooo glad to hear you referring to the reclaimed tile and pottery garden path project. I SO want to see that project and I think you'll be surprised how easy it is to do it in increments. No need to put the project off, thinking of it as daunting and you have to accomplish it in entirety. Start at your doorstep, so every day crossing your threshold, the beauty of it will be inspiration to do another segment.😉 Happy Easter ladies!
Yes I agree exactly and hope they start soon. Always interesting and pretty pottery shards to be had and placed in the pathway!
When Alex found the doll's leg, I yelled out "It's a leeegggg!!!!" And my mother looked at me like I was mental!!!lol Thank you for another wonderful adventure ladies!!❤❤
Haha! 😆
I used to visit a re-sale store with craft and art materials (failed during covid), which had a sign saying "Trash is a Failure of Imagination",
That is perfect! 🙌
@@NorthernMudlarks Yes, it is. You should make one, Gail! A crafty name plaque for your house would be cool, too.
The little boar is so cute, you should totally cast that in silver too!
this !
Girls, how about painting him 'piggy pink'. Then he'd look great.
@@janicecooper875 not this ,lol boars are not pink
@@lindamazur4208 Hi Linda, what sort of colour are they, l thought they were a dark pinky colour. Seems l'm wrong let me know. Don't think l've ever seen them at all. Thanks Linda.
@@janicecooper875 most common are black or brown . i think you are picturing domestic pigs
Without fail, I always forget the tiny doll hiding places and it makes me laugh every time! 😂. Look at darling kitty peeking in to see your haul!
I think he was hoping to bag a chaffinch.
I do the same... First I forget it and when I see the wee little thing, it cracks me up and I desperately try to find it/her in every shot... 😂❤
You are so fortunate to be able to spend time together doing fun things! The bond the two of you have is so precious.
HI GAIL AND ALEX!! LOVE THE LION HEAD CASTING, SOO COOL. YOU NEVER CEACE TO AMAZE ME FOR THE THINGS YOU BOTH CAN DO WITH YOUR FINDS. LOVE THE BIRD FEEDERS ON THE WINDOW ABOVE. NICE TO SER ALL THE BIRDS THAT COME TO FEED. WELL THANKS AGAIN AND STAY SAFE ❤️ 🙏
Hi . The small blue German marble we use to call them pea wee marble when I use to play with them many years ago. So nice to watch you and your mother doing something both of you like doing. Have a good Easter.
I get so excited Saturday nights because I have something to look forward to watch on Sunday!! I love watching you ladies find the items from 100 years ago and tell us the history that comes with the piece. So awesome! I hope you never stop making these videos and congrats on the 100,000 subscribers! I'm happy to be a part of your channel.❤
It's so funny when Alex says it's a leeeeg! Love all your videos! Love from Northern California. ❤
I love it when Alex says head with her accent! IT'S A WEE HED!!
Happy Easter, one and all! Congrats, ladies, for reaching 100k subscribers! A wonderful achievement. Here’s to enjoying many more!
I love hearing Alex say knackered🤭
The little item from the steam engine has the words: 1 Atmosphere is 1 kilograms per square inch.
That's how they measure pressure inside a vessel.
Love the finds! Such a diversity and so much history. ❤
A HUGE congrats to hitting that 100K mark, and then some. Wonderful video as always. I love the "battered" cod marble.
❤❤🎉🎉 yippee from are Steven. From borne in South Elmsall and now living in pontefract next to pontefract Castle. Happy day's Happy Easter 🐣 too you all and all the viewers 🎉. ❤❤
Omg I have family in South Elmsall I live in staffs now,for 60yrs..we lived in Upton..
Saw a BBC miniseries about undertaker in pontefract... never knew it was a real place.
Think series called lark rise to candleford.
And a HAPPY and BLESSED RESSURECTION to you also.
Happy Easter 🐣 everyone 🐰 your little dolls hiding amongst your finds makes me laugh each time🤣
☮️🇨🇦💜 love the history, Appreciate the work you put in ! Two new bird feeders🐦 until next time! Gail happy Mother’s day
😊 thank you
Happy Easter 🐰🐣 !
I LIKE TO SEE YOUR STUFF YOU FIND WHEN IT IS CLEANED UP YOU CAN TELL MORE ABOUT WHAT YOU FOUND GREAT JOB
THANK YOU SO MUCH for making the lion pendant! I love craftwork and your visions to use found objects to make beautiful objects.
Congratulations on hitting 100k! Also I loved the little frozen Charlotte that moved about when you showed all the finds cleaned up 😊
Rewatching this show, I’m curious, do you enjoy finding new ways to display the pudding dolls on each new haul? Many laughs? The power of a smile enlightens many here🦋 how are your other projects going? Garden gate, Mudlarking on your electric bikes, new workshop Reno in your house 🏡 how are the shrews? love all you post! Drone property views are a favourite 🌷thanks for all your hard work, you ladies are trail blazers! ☮️🇨🇦💜
Great finds. Love the happy recap with the window view. Very creative 👏👏
When you find those huge glass stoppers you can use a water sander to fix chip to your liking. I thought I spied a water sander in your workshop before. That would be so cool!
I love playing find the penny doll! So cute!
Beautifully filmed and fabulous finds, so interesting ladies!
Congrats on 100k! The pig reminds me of the figures that came in Red Rose tea packages.
Such great information about the history of things that you find always a joy to watch! Thanks so much for sharing this 😊 ❤️ 😀 ☺️
Congratulations on reaching 100 thousand so quickly. That’s a wonderful milestone that some people never reach.
I love all your finds, but I especially like hearing all the history behind them, too. Congratulations on your 1 million subs!
Always fun to go treasure hunting with you both.,and hearing the history behind your finds too.I love the little boar and the pretty small marble,and the unusual all over patterned pipe bowl. Walkways get little surprises each time you go.But it’s also the beautiful surroundings you’re in that is wonderful too.Looking forward to the next one ,Love n Light 🥰
Thank you Christine! Glad you enjoyed it!! 🥰
The boar was a great find but oh that besutiful blue pee wee!
You mentioned that they had a special opener for the cod marble bottles. Have you ever found one of those openers?
I love watching y'all recover all your amazing finds. Congratulations on reaching 100K subscribers!
Congratulations on your 100k. See you next week my lovely ladies.
Happy Easter girls.Love the tiny Bore it's so sweet.
Always an interesting search with you two ladies ❤❤
Love you finds..thank you ever so much for sharing..God bless.. keep it up..
Love watching your videos and I love learning about your finds.
11:09
As soon as I heard you say “bead of the day”, I sang it out loud in the same tune as Robbie Cumming sings “Pub of the Week” in his (earlier) narrowboat videos.
Very random?
Yes.
Did I need to share this information?
NO!! 😳
Did it make me happy and also smile?
Absolutely!! ❤🙂👍🏽
🙂🐿🌈❤️
Fab finds ladies.love the boar and the lions head x
I really enjoyed the video, the history of your findings and watching you make new things from the Past. Thank you so much for a great day out. 🤗❤️🌈🙏🕊️
Thanks for giving the history on your findings. It’s fun to find out where and how things come about. Happy Easter 👍👏😍🐣🐇🐰
The broken basket looked simular to Balique, they made woven baskets which were so delicate...I'm sure other pottery manufacturers made them too . Some wonderful finds yet again ❤❤❤❤
Thank you ladies, that was a very entertaining and informative episode, loved it all, cheers!!!🥰😘😘💕👍👍
Yay!!!!! Happy Easter y’all ✌️🤍
I just love watching you guys fine history at the tip. Thank you for taking us along. That was great fun. From LIZ in California.💜😎🐇🐬🇺🇸 do not attempt to
I love the onion skin marble a nice find I watch Rocks Cousteau he digs some lovely marbles..stay safe....
I love how you dig all the history of people that have been forgotten. Have you ever thought putting them in wikipedia?
Mum, I love what you said, the bee's are out, hibernation I spotted them 2 weeks ago what they were drained of energy, if anyone sees a bee struggling, try and pick her up and but her in safety I love watching mum and daughter they have taught me so much
Love the history and stories, thank you!,,
OMG OMG! So this is the first time I saw your beautiful kit cat and she is an EXACT TWIN to my kit cat Bootsie! It was like a glitch in the matrix. I about fell off of the couch. BLAHAHAHA 🤣 Congrats on 100k, you are on the way to 1mm! Love u both❤❤
Dolly on the boar!!! 😂 That spittoon thing would have made a nice cloche bottom.
You guys are awesome I love watching you ❣️
HAPPY EASTER !!! ❤❤
Great treasure day.
Your passion for the details of the history of the treasures you find really brings out the magic.
Have you considered making a paving stone with bottle stoppers. Based on videos I have seen, you would put the bottle stoppers upside down in a mold and pour concrete over them. I imagine it would also work with the flat bases of broken bottles. It would be a nice way to use all those beautiful broken colored bottles. Lovely video, as usual. Cheers Ladies.
Such lovely little finds! Thank you for sharing, and caring about the history. By the by, my husband suggests that the wee boar with his hole-y bum could be part of a clay pipe smoking kit. Perhaps part of a tamp, a cleaner or ream. He recalls a bit of his great uncle’s pipe smoking habits and seems sure that could be what it is, albeit a poor man’s version probably.
😂 Five seasons!!! Thanks for the laugh Alex. You ladies have a great Easter and thanks for the take along. Love from the USA
Happy Easter ladies 🐣🐇🐰
and thanks for another great video 🙂
Happy Easter from Australia! Great mudlark and I love the "Wheres Pudding Doll" at the end, although peeping out of a dolly's eye is a touch freaky 😂
good finds and really good photography again
Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme sounds like you both sing it!
Love it!
It isn’t them.
At 12:42 with the blue shovel did I see a wrist watch to the lower left? Love seeing your finds and your home projects on the Lost Tower Diaries!
Some great finds the lions head was my favourite
Thank you for sharing your lovely finds! ♥️🙌🏻
Peewee/peawee marbles. My grandfather used to have a very large glass jar full of marbles, so whenever we needed some we just dipped our hands in and filled our marble bags.
would love to come out mudlarking with you ladies and learn casting from Alex, keep up the good work, love history of some finds, looking forward to the next video
There is an American mudlarker that takes old bottles and makes whisky glasses and drinking glasses out of them. You guys are so crafty and so many bottles...gather same kind bottle cut them down for a set and sell. Just throwing an idea at you guys.
Great video.Love the Boar.
I absolutely love the little guy that you hide all over.
What a great lark. I love bottle tops. I do wish though that the hole diggers would fill them back!!
Has the tiny doll got a name please as she is now a permanent feature in your video roundups, she always makes me laugh. Love todays finds such interesting stories you give us about the things you find. Thank you.
Before the round up I stopped this to say Alex you were correct 5 seasons for you and us commentors! Haha Mudlarking Season!! Where would we all be without that? Also that piece you put next to your little boar on the ground..I reckon you could say its a bit "cheeky".
We called them peewee marble here in my part of the US!
LOVE this channel!!!!!
It's a peewee marble !
Who would want a boar on their cake? 😂
I absolutely love this channel and you ladies rock!
Looked like a beautiful day for a lark with some nice finds .....hope you had a Happy Easter....Karl from eastern Canada
Gail & Alex could watch both your channels all day.love to hear your voices also the excitement when you find something good . I look forward with eager anticipation fof new episodes on both channels. Well done.
Hey girls, I love watching all your adventures, been watching for a few years now, Alex has beautiful hands, mom has a beautiful smile, and you all can make beautiful charms from you finds, love from the USA,
Congratulations on the 100.00
Excellent research! Pretty cool stuff!
Good finds ladies...
Happy Easter everyone
100k SUBSCRIBERS!!!!!! YAY!!!!
“It’s a leg!” Such a bountiful dump! Caroline from The Johnsons would be in Heaven there. It’s a long drive from Wales though.
The tiny doll needs a name.❤
All that patterned broken china would be fabulous in mosaics…you two should make something. Would be good sellers!
🎉congrats on all your finds. As well as your many subscribers. I enjoy watching 👀 you look for treasures.
You should make light up funny faces using the cod bottles. they look like they have a happy face on each side you could even put some spikey hair in the tops. Just a thought of a craft you could do with slightly broken ones 😅
Hey, you liked the cute face too!
Glad you did saw the face too. Made me smile and I wondered if anyone would see it.
What an interesting view from the outside in.
Love your finds the wild boar with his big tusk was my favorite . I you could find a lot of old bottles that are the same you could cut them at the same hight and make 100 year old tumblers out of them I think that would be cool .❤❤😊
Happy Easter ladies.
I wish I lived closer to collect the bottles but it's like the old song say's So faraway 😊♥️♥️♥️🙏
That piece of slate brings an idiom to mind. When something is ‘slated’ to happen or on a schedule it refers to actually being written on a slate like you found.
Love watching you through the window!❤
Yes, and l also love when the birds, cats and peacocks happen by 🐦🐈⬛🦚
Nice finds ❤
I still laugh every time that little doll pops up in your reveal in strange places. She is magical and has great personality. Donna Northern Michigan
Great video tonight. Thanks. Clever camera work through the window. Congrats on reaching 100k followers! 🎉
