Hmm, well not much response to my initial plea. Plan B is that I start randomly assigning tea talk time-slots to students, so if you would like to maintain control of your tea talk schedule sign up in the next couple of days.
Cheers, Aaron

Ok, it's a new term and it's time for me to ask you to sign up for your Tea Talk.
What's a Tea Talk? These are usually informal talks that can be about anything from a crazy idea you've been kicking around and want to bounce off some of your colleagues to a great paper you just read and would like to tell the lab members about.
When are the Tea Talks? Tea talks are usually on Thursdays at 14h00.
** All students are expected to give at least one tea talk a year. Sign up now to reserve your spot (bonus marks for signing up for the slot this Thursday!) **
How do I sign up? Either email me with your desired time slot (some Thursday at 14h00), or preferably edit the tea talk slot directly on the LISA google calendar to include your name (i.e. change "tea talks" to "Tea Talk: Joe Shmoe"). It's as easy as that.
I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Cheers, Aaron
