A level? We were allowed to play with those at O'level. Well that is till someone dropped the lump of potassium down the plughole to see what would happen!! I think that was possibly the lesson where we had the electricity, the gas and the water to the students benches turned off!!

I'm doing A-level chemistry at the mo. It is a bit boring, with my teacher telling us how 'In the old days, we would have done this, but because of all these new safety laws, you get to watch while i have all of the fun' :( How unfair.
