Where to get lumps of natural chalk
Anyone know where to buy lumps of natural chalk? We live in a sandstone area, so nothing around here to pick up on a walk for free.

When I picked up some torts from Babs last year she gave me some, it may be worth pm ing her to ask as I havent seen it anywhere either.
Let me know if you find out, I would like to get some more
