east coast stu wrote:Was out early digging Filey beach today. saw a clean up crew checking the beach, But it looks like most of it has washed back out to sea, or been covered in sand,

i only came across three blobs today stu ,looks like its all gone ,that bloke looked a bit surprised that i spoke to, he was after some pics of it ,think he was a reporter,when he asked me if i had seen any,
i said,yes three blobs and he looked disappointed,

Thanks for the information i am sure it will be appreciated by many

the beaches around here are covered in big brown blobs!!! everyday the stuff turns up!!! coutesy of our four legged friends!!!

Tar can be removed using iether butter/margerine (yes!), alcohol (methylated spirit) or white spirit - but as usual try this remedy at your own risk and dont blame me if it causes a problem.

Normal precautions with solvents..

Others suggest WD40?

I'll try some on the blobs insitu!!!! rl; rl; rl; rl; rl;

A friend had her Dogs on the beach today and said there was nothing there today
