This sounds dead geeky, but we were having a walk on the beach at the weekend and I found a fossil. A bit of research tells me it's called a 'bivalver' and it's roughly 200 million (200,000,000) years old, how mad is that!?! I'm probably the only person to ever touch it. The pictures are crap, but thought some people here may find it vaguely interesting on the underside there's the shape of a weird Jurassic wood louse.
