The Diary of an Artist in Residence at Oldbury Wells School, a Specialist Science College, Bridgnorth. Thursday, 15 October 2009. The words 'DeoxyriboNucleic Acid' (DNA) have been imprinted on my brain since Secondary School, along with my Times Tables and the verb endings for the future tense in French!
