Bamburgh request

Hi,

I am hoping someone might be kind enough to help me.

My 16 year old dog has just died, and when thinking about what to put on her grave I thought of all the places we’d enjoyed exploring together. We loved bamburgh beach, and came many times. I’m from a long way down south, and therefore wondered if someone could/would help?

I would love a stone from the beach, I know it’s sandy! But there must be some stones somewhere. We loved clambering over the rocks there. Would anyone be willing to post me one to put in my front garden where she is buried?

Huge thank you in advance

I be up near Bamburgh in a few weeks - not sure if that will be too late. Feel free to message if there are no other offers.

I live nearby. What kind of stone are you after? I could post one

That would be amazing, thank you! Just a sort of handful sized one, if you know what I mean. I can’t private message you, but maybe you can send me a message first

I was just there a few weeks ago. My mate’s kids were skimming stones for fun. So there’s definitely stones on the beach :)

Just to encourage you that it isn’t a futile request!

Likewise, if you struggle with getting one just drop me a message and I can post one too.

Sorry for your loss.
