She was also helping Dad withhis business and then they also set up a Hairdressing business latterly.

He broke his leg rather badly and he was a long time off work and it did leave him rather unable to be as active as he was beforehand. He became a producer with Fife Educational Television Service which back in those days, Fife was rather ahead of the game really: he would record with the BBC and [with] peoples permission he would record programmes off the television and then they had a system within Fife Schools for sending those programmes out so the schools could look at them anytime they wanted.

ACTIVITY 1 Pole Position MODELLING THE EARTH’S TEMPERATURE... The coldest parts of our planet are the top and bottom – the Arctic in the north and the Antarctic in the south. But why, in places where for half the year the sun never sets, is it so cold? As the Earth moves around the Sun it’s tilted on its axis: an imaginary line through the planet between the North and South poles around which it rotates. The tilt always points the same way in space. The part of Earth which runs around the middle of the planet, the equator, is consistently close to the Sun ACTIVITY 2 as the Earth makes its orbit and so is consistently warm; the poles are not. During a year’s orbit, the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun in summer, keeping it in constant daylight, and away from it in winter, Threatening thaws keeping it dark. The opposite is true at the South Pole, ASSESS THE IMPACT OF MELTING ICE... meaning the seasons are reversed. Imagine if the Earth wasn’t tilted – what would happen to the seasons? Ninety percent of the Earth’s ice is in Antarctica, a continental land mass covered with ice at an TRY: average thickness of about 2,000 metres.
