 * Hi from the peninsula!

__**Emails from Toby in UK. **__ Toby. Hello Room 4. Scroll below, along to the right to see the rest of this page!--->>>
 * Hello everyone in Room 4. It is Toby here. I am having fun in England. It is very hot and sunny here. **
 * Today I went to a beach with fossils and I went fossil hunting. It is a place called Walton on the Naze. I went digging and I got stuck in the muddy quicksand and it sucked off my gum boot! I found fossilised wood, shark's teeth and fossilised poo. Then I took what I found to Mike for him to look at. He is a palaeontologist and he told me something interesting: he told me that poo from a herbivore has a round end, and carnivore poo has a sharp end - but they don't call it poo they call it 'COPROLITE'. **
 * Then he showed my lots of other fossils he has found - they were very interesting. There were remains of animals that were there in Walton millions of years ago and do you know I saw the teeth of a straight tusked elephant, a mammoth's tooth and woolly rhino and wild bison bones. **
 * I bought something to show you - it is a bone from a whale's spine. Sue who was in charge of the museum told me the whale may have been eaten and killed by a giant pre historic predator called a Megladon. Megladons hunted their prey by biting off either the whale's head or its tail, then waiting for it to sink to the bottom of the sea and die before eating it bit by bit. The Megladon was so big a caravan could park in its mouth! And it was as huge as the tower at Walton, which is really huge. I will send you some photos of me hunting on the beach. And if you look on www.nazeman.fsnet.co.uk you can find out lots more - the Museum bit is the best bit to click on. **
 * I have got to go now because it is my bedtime here in England even though you will just be getting up for the morning in New Zealand. **
 * Bye bye, **
 * Here are some more things I have been doing. **
 * I went to Wildlives which is a special place where they rescue sick animals and make them better. Then they release them back into the wild. I could touch some of the animals. **
 * Then I went to a pottery place and painted an elephant money box. I have to wait for it to be glazed and fired then I can get it. **
 * Love Toby. **
 * Hello, it is me again! I went to a place called Jimmy's farm. It is a pig farm but they also have a woods there. I went with my little twin cousins Ben and Jake. In the woods there are dens and tree houses and we built them and played in them. I wanted to sleep there but Ben and jake were too little. **
 * Love from Toby. **
 * Here are pictures of me at my Grandma and Grandpa's house in Frinton. I am with JJ the dog. Then I went to see some butterflies and reptiles at a special butterfly and reptile zoo. Another day I went to Clacton Pier. It was cool. But Mum told me the ride would just go round and round and then it went up into the air - you can see how high in the sky I was. I did not like that very much - the trampoline was much better! **

 * <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">This is the last one for now! **
 * <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">We went to a farm with Ben and Jake. I learned how to milk a cow and had heaps of fun. Do you like the photo of my Grandpa on the flying fox? I told him to be brave so he went on - but I have to tell you that at the bottom he fell of and got a very muddy bottom! We all laughed and laughed and laughed! Love Toby. ** ||
