LincolnHearts Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 The Great British Bodge Off Just spotted this at my mates when I've gone round to help him (not with any pointing btw) Asked him if he used a cake mix and how many melted bricks he lost down the cavity. Get them posted people........4 tubes of silicone to seal in a gangster sized gap round a bath? Holding a paintbrush with your feet? They are amongst us.......

Paperclips instead of fuses, cables spliced together and taped up, that sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
