Ammonite

August - Tim Blair

A grey stone, split in two, with each part containing a cross section of an ammonite.
We spent a good chunk of time during August on the Dorset coast in one of my favourite places to be: Swanage. It almost felt like a normal holiday, which was both wonderful, and weird.

One day we took a trip west to the beach at Charmouth (just east of Lyme Regis) to do some fossil hunting. We'd organised with a local chap for him to spend a little bit of time helping us, and with his assistance we found this beautiful ammonite inside a stone.
