[Celticelement] Lab related things :)

Dear all, Firstly, thanks to those that turned up to clean the labs yesterday. It's in much better shape now thanks to your team effort :) Secondly, there is a new booking sheet for the new year as the old one was getting too cluttered and glitchy. There are tabs along the bottom for the chemistry rooms and instruments. For the chemistry rooms please include your name, the procedure and name of HF buddy and responder if doing HF work. For the instruments your name(s) and procedure is all thats required. I’ve pinned the booking sheet to the top of the teams channel and the link is here (Lab booking 2024 - .xlsx<https://cf.sharepoint.com/:x:/r/teams/CELTIC/Shared%20Documents/General/Lab%20booking%202024%20-%20.xlsx?d=w3751dc897ce04ae299f31626d0741ee1&csf=1&web=1&e=Jf05qj>). Please don't book beyond the red line. Thirdly, we will have a lab meeting on Monday 8th at 10am in 1.58. I’ll organise some coffee and cake for this one seeing as it’s the first one back after the new year. I'd also like to include a 20 min tech/applications talk in these fortnightly meetings moving forward so if anyone would like to volunteer then let please me know. Fourthly, there is a leak coming from the floor in the multi collector room. If you are in there and notice a puddle forming please use the mop and bucket to clean it up. When it gets too much I will give the order to abandon ship. Fifthly, thanks all for your hard work and patience this year. I think you will all agree it’s not been straightforward and we have faced some issues in the lab but we have also welcomed lots of new people and instruments and made some exciting measurements. Let’s see if 2024 can be even better! Merry Christmas and happy new year :) Cheers, Edward — Dr. Edward Inglis Office 2.26A School of Earth and Environmental Sciences Cardiff University Main Building, Park Place Cardiff CF10 3AT Office: +44 (0)29 2087 79469 Lab: +44 (0)29 2087 74326 Email: inglise(a)cardiff.ac.uk [page1image2912240.png]
