- Back in the fresh air!! was really good to be back out, not much found mind but still a nice little hour on the beach.
If you want to book a private fossil walk go check out my website www.thefossilacademy.com for details.
New headspace great stuff.
It's great to see you back, hope you and your family are all ok? you've been missed.
Lovely poo! Enjoyed the vid and especially the music :)
Nice to see you got what I get most times... Mostly fresh air, nice views and a few dewdrops 😳. I didn't realise or even think to look for rolled coprolites... I always look for the tell tale shaped one's with a little curl on the end 🤣 seriously, as the cliff states regarding danger of falling etch...is their any blog or site that warns us so we do or don't enter the beach? Thanks for the video, hope to bump into you on the beach someday 👍🍻
Rain in the winter coupled with lots of wind would make me even more wary of being anywhere near the cliffs, there aren’t any dedicated sites to let you know the situation of the cliffs as they are so unpredictable, I’ve seen some huge falls in the middle of summer. Always air on the side of caution and just stay well away. Makes my stomach turn sometimes when I see families with little kids feet away from the cliffs. If you do see me down the beach give us a shout, always up for a chat.
Great to see you back. We're really missing Charmouth, hopefully we'll be back in the next few months to wander along the beach. That view out across the sea with the large rocks at the foreshore made me feel quite melancholy. Good luck tidying up the workshop, we just did our summerhouse and the bloody spiders get everywhere!
Yeah we have a bit of a false widow infestation so not looking forward to the clean up to be honest!
@@TheFossilAcademy We get a lot of those in North London too, we also get a lot of creepy woodlouse spiders, red head, orange body. Yrk. The trusty Henry Hoover seems to sort them out though.
It’s almost a year since we were out there with you, our last jolly before Covid :( Good to live vicariously through your videos. Take care x
great you are back :-)
Cheers dude :) just took the hobbit out for a session at Charmouth. She loves it.
Travel with hope but not expectation, welcome back
I like that :)
Good to see you back. Any tips for identifying coprolites?
First things first, if you think you’ve found a coprolite, poke it with a stick first, there are dogs on the beach........ shades of brown with shiny black flecks in it. Some have a very distinctive twist to them too, these are most likely from a shark opposed to an ichthyosaur, as sharks have a twisted gut, creating the traditional mister whippie look.
I guess we've all got a touch of the lockdown blues. Its hard to motivate yourself I find. Unless you have a nice warm space prep work for me is just too cold and miserable in the garage The spring weathers not too far away now. There's another nice Asti waiting for you on the beach one day soon buddy. Keep safe and hope to see you around.
Yeah this one has been really tough, think losing the job hit harder than I let on to be honest, have got some freelance work for the heritage centre though which is nice, will be running guided walks in the summer too, government permitting.
Yay, he's back! Is that a Nottingham accent there?🤔
Eye it is! Well Mansfield, so technically Nottinghamshire. Not lived there for many a year but never lost it.
Always find poo 💩 interesting,we found some Crocodile 🐊 💩 on the IOW a few weeks ago.👍
Hey Dan, love the channel 😀.
I live in lyme and found a Birchi dapidium and a Birchi ammonite that I need prepping. I am not brave enough to tackle these as I have only just started prepping myself and will probably ruin them. Are you interested in prepping them for me or can you put me onto someone who can. Thanks. Phil
Morning Phil, I’m not taking on any prep jobs until later in the year but James Carrol aka ‘The Wobbly Fossiler’ is really good at the birchi stuff and has an awesome eye for detail on more demanding stuff. He’s local too. www.thewobblyfossiler.co.uk he’s got some of his work on his new site.
@@TheFossilAcademy ideal, thanks Dan I shall contact him now. Keep up the good work on the channel, you have taught me loads😂
Good to see ou out..that bottle of gin is still sitting hear...hope to be down when we are unlocked
He’s back 😎 hope you’re well mate
You're up late! All good thanks, not the most interesting session but best to show the bad times with the good :)
@@TheFossilAcademy Haha thanks to lockdown i'm verging on nocturnal at the moment - I agree! coprolite should polish up well though :)
Have you tried sea town? always something there.
Love Seatown! Eype too, but tends to be big hammers at Eype. When lockdown ends I’m going to be going different places to mix it up a bit, got a Whitby trip planned and will defo be doing more around the local area when restrictions allow.
@@TheFossilAcademy I at sea town now, got a soggy BLT and a nautilus plus the world's smallest pyrite ammonite, I also am planning a trip to Whitby soon😎
If you see a bloke in full camo and black Tac vest with big beard on beach come say hello😁😎
Likewise dude, if you see me out give me a shout
That's an elite turd I ain't gonna lie
