Bri and I think we need another new interest and after watching the Natural History Museum programme it struck us... yes... of course we need to go fossil hunting ( no jokes about have a glance at each other and you found one, please). Knowing that we don't do travelling, we need to keep it local to the West Midlands so we need to find a fossil digging site not too far away, how? where ? If anyone knows about this subject please let us know, preferably so we can go in good weather as we also don't do cold , wet and windy. Also preferably clean as we don't do muddy, oooh, also we don't do uphill so no rock climbing. Don't forget, we are not allowed sharp instruments, but if anyone can help us, please get in touch.
And now for the Winter Crops!

ReplyDeleteQuite a few places in Shropshire
Lots on places in the Peak District (look in all the railway cuttings and styles on the Tissington Trail.
Some places in Sandwell Valley, where the sandstone gives way to limestone.
I'll ask my son when I see him: He's the graduate in geology :-)
