      Staples. Definitely staples. Easy to get the tissues to stick together that way – and it doesn’t matter if their wet. Wait – were you talking about for surgery?

      Depends on what for… I’d use staples for joining sheets of paper together, but doubt people would appreciate it if I used them to wrap christmas presents! I find that I mainly use glue for sticking my fingers together.

      they all have their use, staples are good to make necklaces with, glue is lovely to peel off skin and well selotape you can put it on mouths!

      Paperclips. Definitely paperclips.

      I have to go for gaffa tape (a heavy duty, very sticky form of sellotape). Gaffa tape is the most important thing to take with you for fieldwork. If something breaks, or if you have forgotten something, you can usually invent a solution with gaffa tape. If you can’t then you’re probably not trying hard enough!
