What we have learnt from #LymeRegis #FossilFestival: need more small/todler sized t-shirts

What we have learnt from #DinoConUK: need more medium/large sized t-shirts

Will we ever get the t-shirt stock just right? Probably not!

we had so many positive feedback on it at #LymeRegis #FossilFestival, hope the people that bought the stickers are spreading the good word on their laptops or water bottles!

turns out we sold way more #SciArt t-shirts than keychains at the #LymeRegis #FossilFestival so now that we're restocking the ceratops skull and ammonite for @dinoconuk.bsky.social we're also thinking... dinosaur scientists discussing amber mosquitoes as a t-shirt? etsy.com/shop/theintrovertebrates

Live #palaeoart in action (see Marcin Ambrozik and Cretaceous birds), busy marquees full of #fossils, merch and more, live theatre, talks, book signings! It's easily the premiere fossil-themed outdoor event of the UK!

Had a wonderful first time at #lymeregis #fossilfestival. It had everything you could possibly want - interesting talks, book signings, palaeoart workshops, stalls full of merch, stunning weather, fossil hunting, good company, and best of all, a seal. I’ll be sure to return next year!

A snapshot from my visit to the Lyme Regis #FossilFestival of the marine reptile display in the local museum, which features the skeletons of an #ichthyosaur & #plesiosaur, for this #MuseumMonday. The museum houses a fascinating collection of fossils from the #JurassicCoast of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

It's the final day of the #FossilFestival at Lyme Regis! Still time to join our team in The Hub to learn about our science reconstructing #Cretaceous ecosystems, handle some chalk fossils from @nhm-london.bsky.social, and draw your own #ChalkSea creatures.
A group of smiling people stand behind a table which is covered by fossils and pictures of chalk fossils. A large poster with a reconstruction of a water column on which people have drawn reconstructions of fossil animals on stickers.
