What is bodging?

I catch up on chores or errands that wait until vacation time to do, like the oil change yesterday. Today I took my husband for his blood tests. Gotta do these chores on the holiday, so you don't take time off of work.

Ok its must be a brit word :-3 I use it to discribe someone doing something and i suppose not doing it very well ,,,like as in doing a bodge job - does that make any more sense .

***edited to add - ive just checked Wikipedia and it says - Bodge job - generally mean's a job that was completed quickly and carelessly possibly with your mind on other things and with out the correct tools .

Oh, OK. Like a botched job? They use that word here.

Hey, they should spend their time doing it, with it being vacation!

"Bodging." New to me, too. Sounds like a sport, actually....

"And now for the national BODGING news".....

When I was at school, bodging meant something entirely different
