Nick,
        Run down to your local hardware or craft store and pick up a hot
melt glue gun and glue sticks. Use the milky white opaque sticks, they
are more pliable when hardened and should be fairly easy to remove if
required. The amber sticks are mush stiffer and have poor/less adhesion
on smooth surfaces, mainly used for cardboard and wood (porous)
surfaces. Hurry, hurry, before the stores close (hehehe)....
