Stats.

As someone who was never great at maths, I steer clear of puzzles with names sounding like Far eastern mountain ranges – you know the ones…sudoku, kakuro and futoshiki to name just a few! Give me a word puzzle and I’m happy – panagram, codeword and the plain old crossword are the puzzles that float my boat. Imagine my panic every Monday when the Tech Team present me with a sheet of Becky Bakes statistics. To be honest, they do make interesting reading. I can see which videos have been watched in the past weeks and which are the most, or least, popular. Fork biscuits are winning hands down with well over three thousand of the total almost 78000 views. Some don’t do as well as I expected, mincemeat for Christmas hasn’t really taken off but that’s understandable but I was surprised that the Orzo in tomato sauce didn’t hit the mark either, maybe because Orzo pasta isn’t a well known ingredient. Even the website continues to amaze me with views from all over the world – last month including Switzerland, Brazil, Poland and Australia. Incredible! Thanks to everyone, after two and a half years I’m learning to control my fear of stats! x
