#FridayFlip ! I see a wheel and a leg but I have never found the whole pattern - bicycle, wheelbarrow, hand cart? #beachcombing #SeaPottery
An irregular shaped piece of plain sea pottery lying on fine gravel, a bit of sea weed rests on top The same piece flipped over to reveal a blue transfer pattern- a wheel and possibly a leg is just visible

#FridayFlip - wtf! the source of the blank #SmartieLidsOnTheBeach remains a bit of a mystery - unknown print run, factory error, some sort of knock-off product? #Beachcombing #SeaPlastic
A round plastic yellow lid from a “smarties” tube, branded with the word “rowntree” resting on a wooden surface The same lid flipped over to show a smooth back: usually these lids would have a collectable letter or number in the back.
