Warranty terms

Unfortunately, I think you'll find that Dinosaur Enterprises (TM) have reduced their warranty from 30,000,000,000 years to 10,000,000 years for all fossils put into commission after the end of the Pleistocene era. This has lead to a great deal of disquiet and annoyance from the paleontological community, particularly those who have paid expensive labour and parts costs to have their fossils serviced at a registered DE dealer.

I believe, however, that the concept of a two-piece tooth has been taken on board by V*lv*, who are about to produce the first cold blooded animal based duo-prop propulsion system, to be known as the Snaildrive.

Firstly I think you've been had - it is probably no more than 30,000,000 years old /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

More seriously, professional conservatrices swear by superglue for repairing hard objects like stone and china

As sharks are still the same as they were all those years ago, dont worry just go and get another one /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
Many moons ago I asked a jewler how much the sharks tooth was, when he told me it was £3.50 (I did say many moons ago) I complained, he said "just go and catch your own then" kind of puts things in perspective??/forums/images/icons/smile.gif

Cyanoacrylate glue

Better known as superglue. It was developed for joining living things in the first place. Just the tiniest dab will do.

Lesnes Park

Bexley Council must be wrong; couldn't possibly be you. they say only 54.5million years old fossil bed. Looks like lovely place, thanks for that, pop down soon.

Re: Lesnes Park

Places always look better in pictures than in the flesh but it is a very nice park / woodland. 3 best times of year to visit are now, especially as there's still loads of leaves on the trees but they've all turned red / brown, spring when the dafs are out and early summer when the rhododendrons are flowering. Enjoy!
