      I’m really enjoying it yes thanks 🙂
      It’s a lot more addictive than I was expecting it to be, when I get new questions I can’t help but start answering them!

      That means that yes it is kind of distracting me and stopping me from getting on with my normal work, but I think I’ve got a good balance going so far. I’m gutted I won’t be able to make some of the live chats because of other appointments at work, but I’m glad I can make most of them.

      Are you enjoying it?

      It’s really addictive actually!once you get into answering the questions people come up with it’s hard to stop hehe, I like that it gets us all thinking about things we wouldn’t normally spend too much time on (like how we became scis etc)

      I checked with my supervisor before I started and he’s on board so if it does disrupt my work it’s only two weeks-but so far it’s been quite easy to fit reactions and experiments around IAS. I think my research group is really into outreach projects so it’s not so strange, this year we are teaching polymers for a day to school students doing a summer school, and later giving school teachers an insight into how they can get polymers into school lessons!

      I think it could take up as much time as you let it-but I’m really enjoying it so far!!

      It hasn’t proved to be too much of a disruption so far; I’m able to fit in answering questions and participating in live chats around my normal work schedule, which is great. And yes, I’m very much enjoying it! Hope you are too.

      Not really. I have been doing this when I get free time from my work. And yes, I am really enjoying it! Thank you for asking 🙂

      What about you?
