The pleasing ephemeral stone arrangements of land artist Jon Foreman on the Pembrokeshire coast of Wales.
Each piece takes about four hours to construct, with minimal planning, much to the delight of beach goers who find them before they’re ultimately consumed and erased by the tide.

From our beach clean in Redbarn on Saturday. So let’s try and see if we are dating this bottle correctly. Would it be late 1960s maybe? Seeing as the currency changed in Ireland in 1971?
Anyone?

This KP packet of Alien Invaders has a best before date of 11th Jan 1986. This was 31 years old when it was cleaned up in a beach clean…

This plastic bottle all the way from France was found on Ballynamona Beach. The price on it is the Nouveau Franc, used in France between 1960-62, making this plastic rubbish approx 55 years old.
Cranfield Beach, Newry.

A wild boar emerges from the Baltic sea at Karwia in Poland, finds itself hemmed in and goes on the rampage.
How he got there and what happened next is not clear.
Your hypotheses are invited.
