In reply to Oxymel of Squill ) who wrote this in
ws.net, I, Marvo, say :

My little waterlily pond has a leak and I've given up trying to fix
it.

If it's not too late and you don't want to go the blueberry route, drain
the pond, throw half a dozen beaten eggs into it, then fill it with very
hot water (fit a hose to the hot tap). It fixed my leak.


:-) the mechanics used to tip eggs into the radiator of my fork lift truck
whenever it sprang a leak.

I have just tipped the thing out and mended a hole, can't be arsed to go
through that again as there's a perfectly good fish pond three feet away.
(And I don't have a hot tap - primitive world here). Anyway, don't the newts
and / or frogs eat the egg white?
