Wow.

And that was a site that was bloody five minutes away from the house I grew up in, which is madness.

yeah so it can be yeah and sometimes you might be so lucky just walk along if you know it's the right area you might have an exposure you might might find something how do you know it's going to have something in it well it reminds me so i do actually have with me it's kind of a bit more show and tell and get a bit practical this is so fun by the way i love this yeah this is brilliant yeah so i thought i'd bring this along with me so i've got my hammer and chisel and safety glasses i should probably have some for myself as well actually

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So basically, yeah, I've got my hammers and chisels.

Here you go, Jack.

Yeah, thank you.

Pop those on.

So I'll pop them on as well.

So this is literally a specimen that I'd found.

And it just looks like a pebble.

You can have a look as well, Jack.

It's like there's something in there, isn't it?

It's like a pattern.

And so when you're out looking for fossils, you'll look for structures in the rock.

It's always good to have a bit of an idea.

Don't just go out.

Don't open up a copy of my book and be like, yep, I'm going to go and find that.

That's not going to happen.

You're going to be a bit disappointed.
