Mudlarking

In theory I'm very taken with the idea of mudlarking, but who am I kidding! This is the dame that doesn't like extended periods of getting really muddy [hence not much of a gardener] nor being really cold for any longer than she has to. As with archaeology, I am very much of the armchair variety. One of my small personal treats is enjoying the finds real larkers make by watching their videos on Youtube. My personal favourites are Nicola White, Si-Finds, Mudpies, Kit and Caboodlers and the Northern Mudlarks. No doubt there are many more excellent channels out there, but I must limit myself to these otherwise it's going to become a bit of a rabbit hole which I may never emerge from!
