BS: Is there an ideal . . . number of children that Techniquest works best with

TS: I would say that if it's under 100 then the place is empty. If it is 200 then it is pleasant. If it's 300 it is good and thriving. If it is up to 500 it is very noisy. But I still think the kids have a - they have a good time. They go into the theatre. The theatre takes 100 people and so that knocks it down to 400, who are out here. I suppose. We're doing the same sort of thing. We've got our maths exhibition upstairs at the moment. I would imagine that you wouldn't have more than 100 people in there. Because that would then - I think there's something like 40 or 50 exhibits so more than 100 people there means that it's getting a bit overfull. I think. These are rough and ready figures. I'd have to go up and check and see. So that's the sort of way I feel about it.
