Default Best way to bodge an engine mount?

As above!

The rear passenger mount has completly gone on my escort van been like it for ages!

Will putting some no nails or windscreen bond etc fix it just for now?

Havnt the time atm to fix it as real busy at work but will get round to it sometime!

Any ideas for a temporary fix?

Here's an idea.

How about doing the job properly?!!

It'll probably take longer to piss around bodging something than actually replacing the part!
