[HacktionLab] Space managing and washing up

[Juley Howard]

Hi
I think that if you have a problem of people sitting on laptops and not 
doing their washing up and that they happen to be of one particular gender 
then I will not be going around collecting up their mugs for them.  They 
should be more careful with their computer equipment - this is not a good 
example to set.
I would hope that the people who volunteered for the rota to wash up reflect 
the balance of people who have booked.
Look forward to seeing you, Juley
