Mudlarking 69 - Ginger beer

[squirmelia]

I went to Chelsea, down the steps by the boats and walked between Battersea Bridge and Albert Bridge, on the north side of the river. From the bus, I could see rainbows on the river, caused by the reflection of windows.

I spoke to a person on the foreshore and asked them what they'd found and they had found a ring, although a modern one.

I found a chunk of a stoneware ginger beer bottle - Clayton’s. It would have said on it:
Clayton’s
Old English
Stone
Ginger Beer
London and Kingston-on-Thames

I found two buttons.

The bus stop was still there, as well as a Lime bike.

A crisp packet floated by.

I found two stickers, one of which was a festive bauble.

(You need a permit to search or mudlark on the Thames foreshore.)

Buttons are always nice finds. And anythings with writing on, obv.

I recently found an old Peck's paste jar (Herefordshire), and a new cuddly xmas elf (Birmingham).

I do like to find buttons but they are never quite as good as the buttons in my grandmother's button box that I used to play with as a child.

Peck's paste, ooh! An elf, well, season appropriate I suppose.

A while back you were wondering what else you might find with your uv torch and I can't remember if I suggested Yellow-Tailed Scorpions in Sheerness. ;-)
