a dinosaur bone, an ammonite, a crinoid, petrified wood, some coral, a trilobite, shark teeth, archaeorhynchus these. - yes. tharp: she could pin to each bone and tooth a correct polysyllabic word-- not bad for a six-year-old. and for anybody listening, "polysyllabic" means "long word." do you have any particular favorites here? this one is one of my favorites because i dug this one up by myself. and when did they live? around the cretaceous period. and at the end i said, "well, is there any fossil you particularly would like father christmas to bring you?" no, santa doesn't get fossils. but if he did, i saw this skull-- a bit of a skull of a baby mammoth and it was-- it was real lots of money. so we couldn't have it. you know, it's not every six-year-old who wants a baby mammoth for christmas. bruce: and at gateshead in 2008 christmas came early for bill harriman. this is a waterloo medal. it really is one of the greatest battles in british history where the menace of napoleon was dealt with once and for all. and it's one of those medals every collector dreams of. so tell me how you got it. w
