A bit of hot-melt glue works for me.
Even when I'm wrong, I'm convincing.

I used to use hot-melt but then I went all eco - an oxymoron in the pyrotechnic sense perhaps. Now I use a Spollette tube (with a colour to increase its O.D.

How, exactly, does colouring the tube increase it's o.d? Inquiring minds want to know!

err umm it's due to the warping of space-time by light or maybe a parapraxis for thinking green...

But I should really confess I had to google the correct spelling of Spollette, and what's even more amusing is that i did that only so as not to be caught out by you Lloyd, then you caught me out anyway. Bugger !

I'll fall back into line now. Owe you one Ken !
