I've not used that method but I have used one from (I think) William
Nealy's "Mountain Bike" where you put a small stick/twig over the hold
lengthways and then use it to twist the tube (like winding up a rubber
band
powered plane). Then stick the twisted tube and the stick back into the
tyre and pump up gently.

Or a variation on this - tie a tight knot in your tube at the location of
the hole, then refit and inflate. Nevr tried it but allegedly works.

Cheers
