Hello Everyone, if you are in Dorset please call into the the local Dorset site as from Monday 17th I will be starting the job of acting as local site editor and I want to get to meet and chat with you all....I'm new to all this and still awaiting more information from GNHQ, but I'm sure we can get something happening down here on the Jurassic Coast!

I am coming for a few days break in Lyme. Cannot wait. Good luck with the editing. xx

Should be good fossicking between Lyme and Charmouth.
But be very careful of slips and give the cliffs a wide berth.
They must be very unstable after all this rain.

Will do so Galen we couldn't get our usual flat (apparently Jane Austen stayed in the same building) We do though have the pink dwelling right on the front sad May get wet) The car park is flooded near the Marine Theatre at the moment, my friend is obsessed with Google Earth and checking out Lyme.

I have some nice ammonites I collected there. Years ago. My aunt who lived at the top of the hill found many sharks teeth.

friend texted me from her room which was overlooking the sea that a naked man was swimming from the beach. I couldn't be arsedbothered to get out of bed and told her to take a picture - which she did.

Hope to go to the Marine Theatre on the Friday to see Phil Beer Band who are performing that night.
