Morning David - happy to have received the full fat version. The solution, I suspect, is to compress your images into smaller files - i.e. the dimensions & appearance will be the same, they'll just use less data. Using Word or Pages on a Mac? Here's how!

An unfortunate incident for a friend on vacation provides AMPLE OPPORTUNITY for a gag about photosynthetic control. Honestly, you can’t buy humour like this.

PQH2 oxidation by the cytochrome bf complex. It’s very pH sensitive, you see.
