fossil heaven

Today we had a rehearsal for the school production of Beauty and the Beast and then Mummy took me and my friend Jemima to Banbury museum to do cool fossil things.

There were lots of fossils to look at with a microscope and some sand to dig in to find fossils. I was allowed to keep a brachiopod and I got a huge sea urchin fossil from the lucky dip! We made dinosaur masks too.

For Uncle Jon and Aunty Katrin – Speedy!

Here are some pictures of Speedy.

 

This is him a few weeks old and still all patchy.

Here he is in January all snuggled up in my bed while I read him a story.

This is Speedy playing Gecko Chess. He is allowed to move in any direction and any number of squares like a queen does but any piece he touched he can take so he is much better than a queen!
