There was a great turnout to Monday\u2019s\u00a0Branch Christmas special Practice. So good to see our regulars plus Ian and Helen from Bicester, Kathryn Grant and Sue from Islip, Roy, our latest group member and U.S. correspondent as well as Richard, Jan, Jeremy, Ron, Jane, Derek, Tim and Brenda. Some 20 ringers all told.<\/p>\n
We rang call changes on 8 for Derek, Sue, Caroline, Judith and Louise, Plain Hunt on 5, 7 (for Roy, Caroline, Louise, Judith and Brenda) and 8 for Helen.
\nThere was a nicely struck touch of Plain Bob Minor, Ian on 2 observation, called by Richard, Grandsire Triples and a touch of Grandsire Doubles, with Sue Macready on 5 observation bell.
\nFinally a short burst alternating between rounds and Queens, before we rang down sort of in Peal, at which point Gareth Miller,\u00a0Kirtlington\u00a0rector, joined us as we took some photos and headed back to Caroline\u2018s for a wonderful apres bell Social (big thank you to Caroline and Louise for hosting, organising and providing mulled wine, and to everyone who contributed food), later featuring hand bell\u00a0ringing. Definitely improved over last year.<\/p>\n
See the\u00a0\u00a0Kirtlington and Bletchingdon Facebook group\u00a0for some video clips \u00a0uploaded by our remote location editing team!<\/p>\n
Hope to see\u00a0\u00a0lots of you at Islip on 3rd January for the first Branch Practice of 2018.<\/p>\n
Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
