Very very happy to have won this! It's been an awesome couple of weeks, and very eye opening in places too.
A big thanks to the @imascientist team and to all my fellow chemists from the Molecule zone @lawebster10 @Ciorsdaidh @alanmccue and twitterlessMartin who battled it out. nitter.cf/imascientist/status/97…

Terrific effort from the boys today. Special mention to the one or two who hadn't played before. The whole team did their school proud. @FCC1860 were delighted to to be able to support the boys.

That’s another semester of teaching labs finished @StAndrewsChem. I’ll see you all next academic year and we’ll do it all again!
Thanks again to our amazing technical staff who keep this place running.
Maybe a niche question, but does anyone know of an Anssems Trailers dealer up in Scotland? Been trawling the internet for quite a while and a number of potential leads are fruitless.
There are dealers down in England, but all quite far away. Hoping to find one closer to home.
Chemistry gin folks, what’s your thoughts about the best way to filter this gingerbread gin ready for bottling for🎄?
Originally thought muslin, but a lot of very fine sediments from nutmeg, cinnamon and maybe some ginger residues.
Coffee filters?
All suggestions welcome!
Sorry, that result is just bull ducking shit. Come on, there was no consistency at the end, and that decision made it obvious what would happen. – at Cupar, Scotland
Our self-isolation period is now different for all of us, but if we had got PCR results today, the whole house would have had to isolate for 10 days, as ScotGov has changed regulations on close contacts in response to rising #omicron cases in 🏴
