I have never in my life read a haiku and not counted the syllables just to double-check that it's actually a haiku. I'm not sure where this haiku suspicion came from...perhaps childhood.

It’s Jury rigged not Jerry rigged.
There’s Jerry built - made of rubbish.

Merriam-Webster give this interesting origin:

Jury-rig comes from the adjective jury, meaning "improvised for temporary use especially in an emergency," or "makeshift." It's a 15th century term that comes from the Middle English jory, as known (back then, anyway) in the phrase "jory sail," meaning "improvised sail."

A6: The License Plate is also a contraction of "License Plate"

C1: If That whole ledge falls then I think we can say the wedding is OFF! XD

Further to add to the "Jury rigged", completion. "Jerry rigged", applies to things that were compared to the walls of Jericho, which were badly built and crumbled with just the sound of horns. Do I get 5 quid?
