What about the engineer who took the back off a radio set to be confronted with a green, evil smelling,disgusting lump fixed to the aerial socket. It turned out to be a sausage taped there by the owner some 20 years earlier when he found that the set only worked if he put the end of his finger to the said socket. The sausage was the nearest equivalent to a finger he could think of!!!!!
