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.

I tooka taxi in Asuncion, Paraguay, that had a back seat made out of an old, threadbare, smelly floral print sofa. It looked like something Hyacinth Bucket would've had. It was attached inside the body of the taxi with large brackets and bolts. There were also holes in the floor big enough to do a Fred Flintstone. The taxi driver had roughly cut four foot holes in the back of the two front seats so you wouldn't lose a foot.
Having said that the road where I was staying was a bodge job too - just dump a few tons of more or less jagged shaped rocks on the road, then steamroller flat every so often.
