There's been a lot on radio 4 this morning about the nation's poor maths skills, and efforts to help people improve. I bet diabetics are among the best at mental arithmetic :D There's a quiz on the R4 website here http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_9701000/9701303.stm
- maybe they should put in a question about ratios and working out carbs!
Kudos to everyone who has to work these out every day to keep themselves healthy 😎
