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.

Windscreen wiper linnkageWiper linkage to spindle type piece that wiper blade is attached to breaks. Wipers flapping around like insane Italan traffic controllers.
Genuine replacement part £230.
You can't just buy the linkages, have to buy the whole lot with motor and everything.
£230 Fuck that !
One tube of Araldite and a jubilee clip, about a fiver.
Two hours and a piece of string (to hold everything in place while the araldite sets) later.
Windscreen wipers better than brand new.
£225 beer tokens in credit to me.
