Chemicals Coffee Time, 6th October 2023
Dear Friend, Happy Friday! It’s been raining for a couple of days here. Meg, our old dog, really dislikes the rain these days (unless there’s some interesting scent about), as cocker spaniels only have a single layer of fur, so both dogs are in their rain coats this morning. The good news is that the […]

Chemicals Coffee Time Monthly, March 2023
April 10, 2023 Dear Friend, Welcome to the compilation from the March 2023 edition of Chemicals Coffee Time (with a little bit from February and April as well).
