On Mon 3rd Octboer Bicester played host to the October branch practice with 10 ringers (9 branch members plus a visitor from Northampton).
We started by ringing up the back 6 and then ringing the 3 & 4 up so we had the back 8.
We started with call changes on the 8 and then 2 more people arrived so we rang up the trebles.
We rang rounds on 10, then plain hunt on 5. Next we rang plain courses of Grandsire Triples and some call changes on 8. Next was a touch of Grandsire Doubles. The Bicester regulars had been trying to learn All Hallows so we rang some plain courses, followed by more plain hunt on 5 and a touch of Plain Bob Minor on the back 6. Then we rang down and (as it was my birthday the next day) we headed for the Littlebury Hotel bar for a drink.
The next branch event is the mini-tour on Sat 15th October. Details have been circulated by email.
