Many thanks to those who have completed my survey 
(http://survey.leeds.ac.uk/labtolab) on lab-to-lab (send aways) already, 
your time is really appreciated.

Please pass the link to the survey to whoever is responsible for send aways 
in your laboratory. Provided the survey receives more than 20 responses we 
will enter respondents into a draw for a £25 book token. If you want to be 
entered into the draw please provide your e-mail address at the end of the 
survey. If you have already answered the survey and didn't supply your 
e-mail address, but would like to be entered for the draw please contact me 
with your lab post code.

Many thanks,
Justin Williamson
