Handover notes
Please use this page to write up any notes on anything that needs to be passed on to the next observer or should go into the end of experiment message.
Notes should be placed below the horizontal line as a new blog entry.
Continuing problems should be copied to the Current Issues page.
**Template for Handover notes:**
Be sure to add any specific notes about the experiment if required, for example “Special back end configuration for x reason”. Put as much detail as you can - the more the better.
