Forming an astronomers' mailing list

I have a telescope, and the weather is now such that I from time to time wish to use it. OK, it gets dark somewhat unreasonably late at the moment, so the list may get more active come the autumn; Mercury's in quite a good position this week at around sunset (say 8:30), Mars is in conjunction with Saturn on the 17th - both planets will appear in a single telescope field of view - so I'll start off by inviting interested people to my place, and thence to the top of Castle Mound, that evening at eight-ish.

[though it's Suicide Sunday the next day, so possibly everybody will be at May Balls, or Pimms- and Camwater-sodden after the CTS punting]

If any Cambridge people would like to be added to a list of people to be invited to admire the stars when my fickle fancy takes me, please comment here:

You could use an LJ-filter too :)

Yeah please, either email or LJ filter (but for short notice items, emails would be more likely to get me). Can't make Sat though.

Probably. Unsure about this Saturday though.

Yes please. We're out this Saturday afternoon, I don't know if we'll be back in time.
