If 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.

Diggin' it!
I know the feeling cos i encounter the not-plumb/level/square/true/normal-too/parallel/bobbity-spot all too often during my somewhat autistic time here on planet3.
The variation of angles and intersections you can end up with when building or altering a house are fucking endless. It jumps out and shouts at me, does that there skew-wiffiness, so it does.
As a teenager there was a particular school science room that gave me migraines and vertigo because of the way the ceiling slopes downwards along both walls towards the right-hand corner above the blackboards. I was back there for an evening class 18months ago and it's still zackly the same. Wonder how many other poor souls have suffered over the years...
