It’s been a while since my last blog post and I thought what better way to  get back into the swing of things than with a quickfire question and answer round. In truth I was inspired to post this after I seen Jordyn Busby of ‘Always Unique Never Ordinary’ blog post something similar so I hope she doesn’t mind!

I am a bit behind with my blogging of late so hoping to catch up over the next few weeks. I also have a few local blog events coming up that I will be sure to share with you all on here. If you don’t already then I’d love for you to follow my blog instagram @scientist_in_the_city as I update this daily…insta-obsessed!

50 Questions:

1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?

My grandfather’s mother died when he was very young from TB so his his step mother (Emma) brought him and his brothers up.
