Title: Dinosaur takeover ...

Have we gone a bit Jurassic mad?   Two seaside trips over 2 days ... looking at railways and kept tripping over dinosaurs.  A Dorset and East Devon thing!

So what are the other symbols of the south west? ... past the dinosaurs you come to - what - ?

Jurassic Coast innit?

Go to Lyme Regis. Dinosaur and fossil references everywhere.  Even the lamp posts.
