I made cold cream once ...I enjoyed science that day.
Those were back in the days when science teachers were men who wore tweed jackets with elbow patches. I think it must have changed a bit since then!
I can't be bothered updating this anymore0 -

The first time I ever did a parents' evening, when I was 24, one of the dads came up to my table, sat down, and opened with "You're awfully young to be a science teacher, aren't you?" I had no idea how to reply.
My dad used to have leather elbow patches when I was a kid, but I haven't seen any for years. But really, they're very MSE - prolong the life of the jacket considerably, I understand.Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49

I have had that comment too, not for a while, sadly.
Now we make ice cream with liquid nitrogen and reactions that glow in the dark.Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
I did wonder why they worn the elbow patches!
I feel I missed out on the good science stuff with having older male teachers that were stuck in the 70's. It's a shame really. My children all love science now. AND Nina and the neurons ..wow I learn from that programme all the time!
Teachers do seem to be getting younger though ..or is it me getting older. No .. definately younger!
