[Healeys] Starting a BJ8

[sentenac.rw at gmail.com]

For those outside the orbit of British materials, Araldite is a quite
good epoxy patching material.  In the US JB Weld is a good substitute
although it takes longer to harden.  Probably the quick version would
do fine in this situation.

Araldite is very widely available.  I got some a few years back in an
almost invisible shop on the island of Iona, Scotland.  It worked.
