Hello,

Christmas is a very special period for many of us, however there will be considerable amount of students who will not be able to go home during this holiday period.

If you are staying here, and you don't really know what to do or what there is to do, fear not. We will be holding a session on the 11th of December on how to survive Christmas period in England!

A whole month without your friends or family can be very daunting. If you wish to find out more about what to do during this holiday, what will be going on in the area and what's the best strategy to have, attend this casual informational event and have a more enjoyable holiday.

Dear Colleagues,

As part of the University's commitment to providing sustainable options to single car occupancy we are re launching the University Car Share scheme. A road show starts this week with free gifts and some fantastic prizes if staff and students sign up at these events!

Car sharing can be beneficial not just for the environment but for your pocket too! You don't have to do it everyday and you don't even need a car to sign up to the scheme.

Come along between 11am and 2pm on Tuesday to find out more.

Regards

Hi.
It's come to the end of the year now and many of you are starting to pack up.
We want any books, clothes, plates, food that you are planning to throw away. We want to give these to charities. There will be people coming along Thursday and Friday to collect any stuff you don't want.
Thanks

Do any of you have willing and able research students who might be willing to fill gaps in my department exams invigilating slots. I've got almost 20 exams in the department over the exam period and have already come unstuck next Tuesday and Wednesday as I don't have enough researchers to cover. I'm also trying the Exams office pool, but if you have any who may be willing, could you ask them to contact me.

Thanks in hopeful anticipation.

Hi Pat,

I somehow managed to lose my mobile phone yesterday afternoon and have tried absolutely everything to find it. I am wondering if you are able to forward this email to the rest of the department as a last resort. I've lost a black Nokia smartphone and if anyone finds it I'd appreciate it if they would contact me on ---@---.

Many thanks

Anti Bacterial Gel Dispenser

A gel dispenser has been installed on the wall between reception and the photocopy room. Please use it to cut down on the spread of germs within the department. Germs survive on paper for quite some time !

To save everybody always being worried and asking the same question over and over again, I would like to re-iterate that which I have stated in previous emails.

No reputable organisations, be it banks, building societies, insurance companies or even university will ever ask for your username and password in an email. If you receive an email asking for these, or for any personal details (such as bank details), you can safely ignore the request and delete the email.
