'STIX ALL' bonding adhesive is a good job. You will get it at B&Q or most DIY stores.

I use PVA, its the standard wood glue and can be bought in any hardware store or builders providers. I am a joiner by trade and its what we use for furniture and joinery since they stopped making cascamite, I have mended scores of hurleys over the years and never had any break again at the original fracture.

Tiger seal is the windscreen stuff, it's mighty stuff, you'll pick it up in car shops like Halfords and possibly Woodies too.

Its an object that some people use to aimlessly hit a small white ball around a pitch for 60-70 minutes and claim they are playing "the most skillful field game in the world".
