Abstract
A day in the life of <br> <i>a retired librarian</i>
Highlights
The sun was shining as my husband, David, and I woke up early in Didsbury, Manchester, on Thursday 10 July 2014 for what was to be a very intensive day and the culmination of over 18 months of planning
I had become involved with Catalyst, which is the oldest science discovery centre in the UK and the only one specializing in the promotion of chemistry and the chemical industry to children and the general public, about two years ago, and in early 2013 I became a Trustee of the Catalyst Science Discovery Centre Trust
After several months of waiting, Harry’s wife, Margaret, contacted me to say that they could come on the morning of 10 July 2014 between visits to Rome, the Galapagos Islands, Sheffield, Bolton, Sussex and Moscow! After a speedy breakfast for us, our dog and cat, and arranging for a neighbour to take our dog on her usual three-mile run by the Mersey valley, we drove the 30 miles to Widnes to get there before the Year 4 children and 20 teenagers, who were coming to the event
