Hi folks

I managed to pick up a copy of the Light Hearted Astronomer, now that I have read it I would like to replicate an idea that I saw on Cloudynights whereby the book was passed from member to member.

Here's how it works, if you would like the book send me your address and I will pass it on. When you have finished you pass it on to the next person and they pass it on, and so on.

It is a short book, only 115 pages long and can be read in a single sitting. Written in 1984 it's amusing reading a book without mention of CCDs, Naglers, GoTo or the Internet.

If you would like me to send you the book pm your address and I'll pass it on. Just remember, pass it on to the person who contacts you first when you read it.

Hi Willi

I only live down the road in Ballybrack, perhaps we can arrange a time for me to drop it off at your house. No chance of it being lost in the post that way.

Hi Willi

Just a note, it might be wise not to print your mobile phone number for all to see, send a pm instead. You click on the person's name and you get into their page and from there you send the message, no one else will see it.

Who gets it next is up to you, once it leaves my possession I have no say and it's up to another member to contact you about getting it.

I believe Seanie Morris will take it next, that guy hates being left out of anything.:laugh:
