It's Thursday night and I'm dancing around the moon at the Museum of London Docklands, but I'm thinking about 25 years ago when on a Thursday night, I would have been dancing at the Dungeon.

I played London tourist and jumped aboard the HMS Belfast. A vat of fake peas, many dials, ladders to climb.

Three eyes I recently found on the Thames foreshore:

1. An eye from a bearded man on a Bartmann jug (16th or 17th century stoneware)
2. A pink eye, probably from a toy.
3. A mysterious blue eye, which could be a stone.

A mysterious metal object I found on the Thames foreshore, with "N P Brown" and "Prime" written on one side and "51" on the other. A token of some kind? What do people think? #mudlarking

In this version of London, marmite on toast ice-cream is edible but other food is not.

The Thames doorbell. A doorbell I found on the Thames foreshore. When you press it, it plays sounds of the Thames, recorded from the foreshore.

Devil's toenails (gryphaea), a genus of extinct oyster. I found these fossils in Marske, in the north east of the UK. They are approximately 200 million years old, so a bit older than the oyster shells I've found on the Thames foreshore.

An echinoid, a fossilised sea urchin, found on the Thames foreshore. It could be about 80 million years old. Wikipedia says they are lucky and have magical powers. #mudlarking

I found a piece of a small pot on the Thames foreshore, that says "Oat" on it. It would probably have contained Oatine face cream, which was manufactured from 1905 to the 1960s and advertised as "the food for the complexion." #mudlarking

"G was a gardener who works many hours, H was a hot-house to hold his choice flowers"

A pottery sherd that was probably once part of a child's alphabet mug circa 1830. Found yesterday on the Thames foreshore.
