Thank you for advice. I'll keep them in mind. But how do you clean the stains? I used Cif this time, works very well on exterior but not much help inside.
I draged again the Thames yesterday and here are a few of my finds. There are 10 bottles but I'll post only some, no point to put the pictures of the same kind or of ones similar with what I post previously. Please feel free to come with any info about them. It will be highly appreciated.
I apologize for the marks, I wasn't able to clean them properly yet.
First picture is for a couple of milk bottles embossed with LWD ltd, 1 pint and 1/2 pint. I found three of the small one.
Next is a half pint from London Co-op Society ltd. I've found a 1 pint bottle from the same company before and this looks just nice besides it. Shame is a bit cloudy.
Next one is the most embossed found yesterday. Is a half pint from the Rees Price diary and it says where about the milk was delivered: Hammersmith, Shepards Bush, Ealing and Southall.
The last thing (bottle seams to be a bit unfair to call it) is about 130mm high and 60mm wide and I have no idea what could have been used for. I guess is for cream but I'm not sure. No embossing except for a "68" on heel on one side and a funny thing, for which I'll put another picture, on the other side. Ther is also a star on the base.
Hey Mihai ,
as Ben can tell you,hunting from a kayak is a great way to find dumps.Not under the water but along the edges of rivers,streams and lakes.
People who live along rivers and streams throw there rubbish there,so we just drift along keeping our eye's peeled for that hint of glass.
A small boat would work about the same,course with a kayak you can get in much closer.
There as to be some really ancient tips along that river.I think the Thames as being used
as a road for at least 2000 years.Good Luck and keep us posted,Dave.
