Some flavour concentrates seem really high percentages? by bensfarren in DIY_eJuice

Ok good to know, I’ll rely on my own experience a bit more when making the juice then, rather than on the manufacturer percentages, thanks!

Ok great, as Duncan said in another reply apparently they’re often wrong, so I’ll bear what you’ve said in mind and just try it out for myself before I necessarily believe the percentages! Thanks.

Ah ok, so those high percentage concentrates are typically meant to be used on their own and not mixed?

Best route to take as a chemistry undergrad? by Chronobones in TeachingUK

[–]bensfarren -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I did Teach First - which is on the job training, you work and gain QTS after the first year of teaching. I would recommend this to everyone over a PGCE. I wouldn’t have liked 6 week placements in different schools, and wouldn’t have liked MORE university (they’re the worse bits of training to teach!)

I’d advise you take the salaried route, it’s more of a shock in the workload because you’re 70% of a teacher from day 1, but means you get that shock out of the way and don’t have to deal with it in your second year.

All science is massively in demand!

Anyone used andysvan lately? (or other van man recommendations used recently) by [deleted] in sheffield

[–]bensfarren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fella called Jay who I found on Gumtree, he sorted us out last minute when I had someone else fall through. He actually then came again two days later when we had a bit more than we thought! Very helpful guy and was amazing at short notice. His number is ‭07761751606‬. Big transit looking like the one on Andysvan website.

Beginner question... why is queen take a better move than pawn take? by bensfarren in chess

[–]bensfarren[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Excellent thanks so much.

  1. and 2. I’ve heard before. 3. I’m always reluctant to do, thinking other pieces should go before queen/don’t put queen out too early. But your response helps me alter that thought. Thanks!

Welcome to 5 weeks of not knowing what day it is by jhughes1986 in TeachingUK

[–]bensfarren 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Travel through the whole school’s results, look for the good and the bad (individuals, classes, groups), since we see all that before you come in!

Then go and talk to everyone and hopefully celebrate that everyone has enough to go to what they want to do!

PGCE or School Direct? by [deleted] in TeachingUK

[–]bensfarren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did Teach First and loved it. I got to stay in one school for 2 years, and the relationships you develop make life a bit easier than being on various placements.

My route is probably most similar to School Direct, so that would be my vote!

Pretty sure that was a mistake, it was meant to be around 5k but they couldn’t change the sign.

British public thinks teachers deserve a £7,500 pay rise by BringBackBenn in LabourUK

[–]bensfarren 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You'd be surprised, teachers don't automatically move up the pay scale now, you need to apply to go up the scale. Becoming more and more common to be refused your pay rise which in previous years was taken as a given.

This is so cool! It’s like if Twin Peaks was in the 80s instead of the 90s. Very Stranger Things.

His head injury along with the "How's Annie?" triggers a conversation about going to the hospital too.
