If you need to top up your petrol tank from a jerry can and can’t find a funnel, use that vuvuzela left over from the Soccer World Cup – it’s a cheap and effective solution. You don’t have to pause every few seconds for the petrol level to drop in the funnel, either: just keep pouring and you’ll empty the can in about one and a half minutes, with no airlock to interrupt the process.
