Using fridge for experiments

After 9 months of close down when the School reopened we found that the cold rooms, which maintain temperatures at 4oC, are not working.  Some of our experiments require a cold room.   When I went to the lab last week, I found my students hastily making space in the fridge.  As I watched bemused they quickly set up the equipment on the lower shelf.  There was slight dent made in the fridge door allowing the electric wire to pop out which was then plugged to the power source.

It was a good use of the fridge.  Just for the record: It worked!
