PALLIDULA Page 3 THERE’S MORE TO THE CONVENTION WEEKEND THAN THE SHELL SHOW by Tom Walker The weekend of the 2008 Shell Convention in April turned out to be a very successful few days for obtaining shells. Everyone who attended the meeting in Theydon Bois will concur that it was a highlight of the Club events; everything was perfect – shells, people, attendance, auction, weather, food and much else. But the weekend wasn’t just the Convention – shells in the field were an essential component. I am delighted that Peter Dance was staying with me over the weekend and we took the opportunity to do some shelling around the south of England. He arrived from Carlisle on Thursday, and on Friday we decided to go to the Weymouth/Portland area in Dorset to look for some relatively rare shells. After a two hour drive our first stop was Dorchester for a much needed cup of coffee, although the highest priority was to find a shop selling lardy cake! Peter had obtained some here on a previous visit some 30 years ago and was determined to purchase some more; after enquiring about its availability we ended up at some tearooms where he acquired their last slab. So the day was already off to a great start.
