Summer beaches are very nice and all but there doesn't seem to be that much in terms of big treasures to find as the tides are small and I need the winter storms. I still found lots of pottery and glass and a good bit of blue glass as well as this old bottle top. It says Sheffield Mineral Water and it still has the rubber seal attached, which is nice.

A couple of weeks ago I went off to the beach for a walk. I can never just walk though, I have to take my mini trolley, magnet, carrier bags, flask of tea, crisps and sometimes my metal detector. Even if I end up on the beach when originally I was going out for milk, my pockets are always full by the end of my trip. Here are some recent finds from Southport last month. I would really like to know more about my pottery bits especially the one that says Imperial Porcelain. I also really like all the different patterns and the blue one above with the white cross on. This is my favourite piece as it has a man playing a guitar on or I have been told maybe its a lyre? I would love to see what the original design looked like.
