Only just noticed it while removing the rear wheel to fix a puncture - it could have been broken for years.

Not sure what strain that tube has to take - I should think most is taken by the tube running down from the saddle area to the rear axle.

I suspect that a non-welding fix will have to suffice, but whether that's gluing on a tube that fits snugly on the outside of the broken tube or just coming up with a bracket to bridge the gap...

I'm not too worried about the aesthetics :-)

OK, try google maps, search welding shops, I think I saw a bike repair shop listed, also I will send you a PM to discuss further.
