Mind you, I was selling some pretty lethal stuff then in the 80s, which you can no longer buy, such as SBK (brushwood killer) - a very strong weedkiller, that was a "watered down" version of Agent Orange, they used in Vietnam, of course.

Shame you can no longer get the original one as it was certain death for stubborn shrubbery etc.

I really don't know what the problem is - it was perfectly obvious even in its original state, as posted by me., and am amazed at the different pointers and explanations it has spawned.

A nice image but surely the ark with dinosaurs would work better with just one of them each, no?

Oh forget that then, I've just noticed it's going the other way. Clever. But a complete reversal of evolutional history.

It going the other way is the clever bit.

But they weren't 'going' anywhere?
Weren't they just surviving the flood?

I like it cos it's so surreal but I have to admit I don't get the joke (if there is one).
