Hi Sue
7 correct today.
The Periodic Table is a horror to me - my first chemistry lesson at secondary school was spent copying it off the blackboard without any explanation of what it was and the shutters in my mind just came down forever!
I’ve a busy morning helping at Cygnets (youth branch of the British Sugarcraft Guild) fun activities around cake decorating for a dozen 7 to 17 year olds.
