Science experiment time

The washing up liquid disrupts the surface tension of milk, producing swirling colourful patterns of food colouring dissolved in milk.

Food colouring dissolves in pure water. Milk is mostly water, but it has billions of tiny droplets of fat suspended in it. Food colouring doesnโ€™t dissolve in fat, so the fat prevents the food colouring from mixing very far.

The water molecules at the surface is under tension. Washing-up liquid reduces the surface tension, but only where the drop falls. The rest of the surface pulls away, and this causes the milk to churn and mix, moving the colours.

Come and spend the morning with me unpacking.

At Lewis Support we donโ€™t just recommend the tech and leave the client to it.
We purchase, unpack, set up, put together, charge, install, programme, personalise and even get rid of excess packaging!

Then we deliver it to the client and ensure that everyone is trained and supported with using the technology.

Happy national Hug day!

Technically not a UK holiday but most people could benefit from hugging more.

Hugging releases oxytocin. This hormone provides tremendous health benefits. Not only does it gives us feel-good hormones, but it reduces pain. Receiving a hug helps reduce stress, lowers blood pressure, and lowers the risk of heart disease. It also eases anxiety.

Go and hug someone today!
