Another day, another beach walk. Further along than my usual walk, towards the rocky area and small cave, before the incoming tide covers the sandy beach and lashes those rocks. My other half was formerly a palaeontologist and studied geology and environmental science. This means a walk near any rock formation along the beach, is a stop start to collect fossils and washed up debris and have a lesson in what kind of rock formation and folds etc the rocky area of Ramsey comprises of, igneous, volcanic, words of the day, and echinoid fossils collected. Always amazing what gets washed up these beaches, sometimes not a a fossil find, but a much younger bicycle tyre. Further reading on not just Ramsey, but the Isle of Man, see Manx Geological Survey
