The next accolade goes to Kevin Ritchie for his piece in the Pretoria News entitled Mediocrity isn't enough in which he reports on the bizarre incident of a commercial airliner being repaired with tin foil and duct tape.
As a sample, for you, of Ritchie's good writing style:
There wasn't a hole in the wing, it was actually a missing bit that holds the engine up, but don't worry, the manual says this kind of aircraft can fly without that part.
Who am I to doubt the manual?
...
It's also theoretically okay to drive on the silly biscuit tyres car manufacturers provide as spares these days, but very few of us do.
It's theoretically possible to eat reheated chicken after it thaws when Eskom cuts the power to your freezer without going down with botulism.
It's theoretically possible to sleep with the doors to your house open in any Joburg suburb in summer.
We don't do it though, for obvious reasons.
Well done Mr Ritchie!
