Just got back from me hols (with Katie of course!). We went to the North Yorkshire coast and it was great to get back in the field - some excellent sedimentology and palaeontology. We found some dino footprints and Katie found some Ichthyosaur bones (jammy thing). Loads of pictures with some short reviews of the field localities coming soon ![]()

I love that stretch of
I love that stretch of coastline. I'll have to take a trip up there this summer and try to find some fossils myself. Last time I only managed to get ammonites. I found a scallop-like thing bigger than my hand, but there was just no getting it out of the rock. I'm determined to get me a dinosaur bone one of these days.
