Bodge JobsIf you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of duck tape, it's not worth fixing at all, my old mate said minutes before that nasty business with the hammer and a roll of duck tape. Tell us of McGyver-like repairs and whether they were a brilliant success or a health and safety nightmare.

This is likely rubber insulated cable.
It does this. It's - more or less - safe if left truly undisturbed - but moved at all, and it flakes off.

You would think so...... but this wasn't opaque like rubber would be - it was more like polyethylene sheathing - sort of translucent.
Also odd to be rubber when everything else was in PVC and this appeared (from the fact that it had been put into a diagonal groove in the plaster) to have been bodged in after most of the rest.
