Today I think that we arrived on the beach just a little early... The tide was still in, and our one pump currently working was difficult to start. We took the opportunity to remove the overburden with a jackhammer. But we found so many bones that there was mad scrambling wrapping after pack-up time. We're all feeling much more useful and competent now.

We've now found 3 mammal jaws all whilst I was holemaster. Coincidence? I think not...
