On Monday 18th May 7 ringers from 4 branch towers and 3 from Buckingham came to check out the newly decorated Bicester tower which was hosting the May special practice.
\nAfter ringing up all 10 we rang the first of the nominated methods – Little Bob Minor. Then we rang some plain hunt on 8 followed by a touch of Plain Bob Doubles on the front bells – well done Si.
\nNext we took the rare opportunity to ring all 10 with some call changes. We followed that with a touch of Grandsire Doubles with Anne observation – nearly there Anne – well done.
\nNext we rang a plain course and immediately followed by a short touch of Grandsire Triples! Both nominated methods and a touch of one.. excellent!
\nAnother two goes at plain hunt on 7 firstly with Anne on the treble and then Amanda on the treble for the first time, very well done both of you.
\nWe finished the evening with a plain course of Plain Bob Triples and ringing down on 8.
\nAn excellent evening with a rare opportunity to ring on 8 and 10 and a chance to extend experience for quite a few.
\nThe next branch event is the branch practice at Middleton Stoney on Wednesday 3rd June – hope to see lots of you there.<\/p>\n
