@thisisyogic @QMULGeography @MOLArchaeology @Ed_Legon @minioncat @Dr_ClaireH @AlastairHackney Fantastic, atmospheric shot capturing the energy on the foreshore. Absolute pleasure to crunch pebbles with you.

@c2c_Rail Hi. I’m traveling to East tilbury and back tomorrow. Will trains be running ok? Planning to leave at 830am and return around 5pm. Thank you.

As a 4 year old in the 70s, my mum would travel to Victoria for work and to drop me off at school. Looking out of the train window as we passed the power station I remember seeing a mysterious flying pig. Over a decade later I would be “transported” by their music #PinkFloyd

Friend and fellow mudlark, Malcolm Russel, aka the @mudhistorian, has recently published MUDLARK’D, a fascinating insight into the history of the artefacts that can be found on the Thames foreshore. A must read if you love history and archaeology! 🪔🏺🗝

@GermanderS That's a beaut ⭐

@thamesclippers @BatterseaPwrStn Great news! I use the service occasionally but being a mudlark, I have really missed those waves crashing on to and cleaning the foreshore at low tide!

[Old Daddy T @mudmark_ldn]

@thamesclippers Thanks for the info. Do you yey know If clipper boats will be running during lockdown? Thank you.

@GermanderS I've tagged you in a post on Instagram

[Old Daddy T @mudmark_ldn]

@GermanderS A little bit of confusion with my twitter name, I've changed it a couple of time but this is me!

Recently found on the Thames foreshore whilst #mudlarking. Artwork signed with a hand print, likely depicting an NHS hero. Another was found today unsigned. Would love to understand why these are washing up on the Banks of the Thames #mudmarkldn

[Old Daddy T @mudmark_ldn]

@GermanderS Stunning find 😍

@ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK can someone PLEASE let me know what on earth is going on with your service?! Coming up for two weeks now with a less than satisfactory connection. Fix it or I’m outage!

[Old Daddy T @mudmark_ldn]

If you’re waiting to be saved, get up. It’s in the getting up that one is saved.

I’m not sure what this is about either.

Three tweetabix this morning and still nothing

[Old Daddy T @mudmark_ldn]

Tweet something, I’m giving up on you...
