History Smeek.

In pokemon games you can find fossils and give them to the fossil guy who will bring it to like in the form of a pokemon, always enjoyed this. In the latest game you can dig for fossils and if you give two different ones you can get a hybrid. I ended up with this absolute mess but I grew to love it

As for real fossils I touched some at the natural history museum but that was it

R found a shell fossil (or more likely fossil relief) that was just one of the bits of gravel in the garden. Well impressed out of thousands of tiny stones he spotted this single tiny remarkable one.

Get yourselves to Charmouth if you want to find some fossils. My family found a big one on the beach there once. It’s pretty cool.

My ex housemate with the v intense religious relationship had bought her then-bf an engagement ring with dinosaur fossil in it… :cry:

there’s a website that says where the best ones are

really enjoy beachcombing when i’m at the beach even though i never find anything good. will sometimes find a pretty rock or shell, hold on to it for like 15 minutes and then get bored of it and put it down

I already regaled the boards with this I’m sure but about two months ago as I was falling asleep I thought to myself “I really wish I’d find a fossil soon”.

The next morning I went into my back garden and spotted a bit of slate, picked it up…it was only three ammonites fossils, wasn’t it.

Well, two big boys, the edge of another big un, and the imprint of a mini one

Bonkers. Not even buried, just on top of some logs, guess maybe the gardeners unearthed it and put it there.
