Pub Astronomy – Sunday 23rd November

Posted by chrislintott in Uncategorized

Over the last year or so, the denziens of the Galaxy Zoo forum have been getting together to talk astronomy over a beer or two. This seems like a splendid idea, so if you’re free on Sunday 23rd November and in – or can get to – central London, then please join me and the indomitable Pamela Gay, host of the wildly successful Astronomy Cast.

We’ll be in Mabel’s Tavern in Bloomsbury, not a million miles from my old stomping ground of UCL between 2 and 5pm.

    This is only up the road from me.
    I will do my best to get there.

    Unfortunately, I won’t be able to get into town that day. I will have to just be there in Spirit, since I lack Opportunity.

    Bad pun, couldn’t help it.

    It would have been good to meet you, Maile – I enjoy your comments on this blog, and would certainly have lobbied you to join the Galaxy Zoo Forum (if you’re not already there under a different name). Hope Chris will arrange a few more things like that, and we can have a great time and start putting names to comment-posters’ faces :)

    Had a great afternoon – thanks Chris! Hope these can happen often; thoroughly recommended. Pamela, it was awesome to meet you! Everyone else, either it was great to meet you or it was great to see you again. :)

    Hi once again Chris.

    Many thanks for your time yesterday and I know that both Andrew & myself,
    well-enjoyed meeting you and of course Pamela & Kahl and everyone who came along.

    Hoping to see you in the near future at our club
    where I’m sure you will be most welcome, especially
    with one of your excellent presentations.

    Many Regards
    Terry Jacobs

    Yes it was great to meet every one again.
    With some new faces.
    And fantastic meeting Pamela.
    Got to do these meet up more often.
    I had a great time.
    Thanks.
    Paddy.

    Bumped into Chris in a Maidenhead pub last night and said hello. (very pleasant he was too ;o).None of my pals knew him though, so showed them who he is on Google, leading me here..! Great to see that you guys have the opportunity to get together like this, and only wish I’d travelled down from Scotland a little earlier to pop along. I seem to be the only person in my social network that is interested in astronomy and takes part in the Galaxy Zoo project, so its great to find this type of online community/blog that I can contribute to!
