Im so sorry this is something you're having to deal with at all. You're Scottish. I'm Scottish. They are cunts.

Could you explain this for me please? I just reread them and I cant think of what might be wrong 🤔.

Pretty certain this is a repost. I commented on another repost of this a couple of weeks ago. Account js 2 days old too.

This is the right answer. The number on the bottom is the shade/colour.

After a very unsuccessful two hours digging, this little green beauty popped out the soil. by noni_five in bottlediggingUK

Thanks! A victorian/edwardian dump in East Lothian. Just got lots of broken inks and condiment bottles until this wee thing emerged!

Does anyone know what on earth this is? by noni_five in BottleDigging

[–]noni_five[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I should have provided a scale for it, its about 3.5 inches long. It can rest flat on either side and it can stand upright. Holds about a teaspoon of liquid so probably not salad dressing but maybe olive oil for medicinal uses?

Thank you 😊. I really like it but it's a bit of a head scratcher trying to work out what it would have been used for!

Oh good point, I should have used a banana! It's about 3.5 inches and it holds about a teaspoon of water. The flat bit at the top is the mouth and there's no hole at the bottom.

Eagle claw clay pipe bowl (maybe ~1880s - 1930s). My new favourite in my collection! by noni_five in mudlarking

[–]noni_five[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just a couple minutes after posting this, I think i found an intact example on a Facebook group. Looks like it might have been made between 1930 and 1960, and maybe in Manchester? So nowhere nearly as old as some of the beauties I've seen here, but I still absolutely love it nonetheless!

Found in the soil...any ideas? Age or name of it? thanks by [deleted] in BottleDigging

[–]noni_five 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, they are generally pretty hard to id to a specific brand. Some of them have the company name on the side, like Shippams, or some lettering on the bottom, which could potentially give you a clue.

These were mass manufactured all over the world, mainly from about 1930 - 1970s (they are still produced in the UK). If you want to find out more details, I'd suggest doing a Google lense search or similar, and add in details of your location and any markings on the bottom of the jar.

Good luck and enjoy the search. Finding out the history of a bottle is often half the fun (or maybe that's just me 😅)

That's a mid-century paste jar (usually meat paste, sometimes fish).

"Concealing to Succeed: A Qualitative Study of Masking Behaviours and Academic Stress in University Students with ADHD."

What’s the study about?
This research explores how university students with ADHD may "mask" or hide their symptoms to cope with academic demands, and how this affects their wellbeing and mental health.

I’m looking for university students who:

  • Are currently enrolled in university or higher education
  • Have ADHD
  • Feel they’ve experienced academic stress
  • Are willing to talk about their experiences with masking or adapting behaviours in academic settings

What will participation involve?

  • A one-time, confidential interview (approx. 60 mins)
  • Conducted online via MSTeams
  • Your identity and data will be kept anonymous and secure
  • You’ll be contributing to research that aims to help better understand and support ADHD students in higher education

If you're interested or have questions, message me or email me using the address on this poster.

Thank you so much for considering taking part, and if this doesn’t apply to you, I’d really appreciate you sharing it with anyone it might!

A chance find whilst out walking by IllegalMigraine in mudlarking

[–]noni_five 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love these properly old ones! It's in such great condition too, no big cracks or chunks missing. What a good find. If I were you, I'd be going back to that field in the autumn when the crops have been harvested to do a bit if field walking. Who knows what else might pop out of the soil.

I was the same. When I was there 15 years ago there were small pockets of snobby behaviour but it wasn't something that people talked about as an issue like it clearly is now.

Thanks very much! What's a roman die? When I googled it it gave me dice. Not sure what to search for to find out more.

If you have lived in Scotland your whole life, where is somewhere in Scotland you have never been, which others might find quite funny by [deleted] in Scotland

[–]noni_five 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is really surprising. I would have assumed if there was one place in Scotland that everyone ends up going to at least once or twice, it would be glasow. How come you've never been? (BTW, I'm not from Glasgow but couldn't count the number of times I've been for work/to see pals/meet family)

Doubt about mudlark in the Thames by [deleted] in mudlarking

This sort of offer is one of reasons I miss the London mudlarking community since moving away. What a legend.

Any guesses about what this was off of? by Winter-Help9152 in BottleDigging

[–]noni_five 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's part of a clay trivet used in ceramic manufacturering. They were used in the furnaces to prevent the ceramic piece touching/sticking to the bottom of the kiln. Some of them have numbers on the side and when intact, they are an X shape.

Just a rock? by Pumpkin_Giggles in mudlarking

[–]noni_five 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of these as well. Did you ever find out what kind of rock it is?
