Eleven ringers from seven towers came to last night\u2019s special practice at Bletchingdon, with Plain Hunt and Grandsire Doubles on the agenda.
We kicked off with Plain Hunt on 5 for Mandy, Gus and Andy, helped by Jeremy, Judith, Sue, Rosemarie, Anne and Fay.
Next we tried Churchyard Bob with Sally on Treble, giving a gentle introduction to hunting over all the heavier bells in turn.<\/p>\n
Turning to Grandsire, we rang a 120 Change touch with Judith, Fay and Anne inside and also some plain courses with Sue on 3 and Rosemarie on 5.<\/p>\n
We had Sally in again ringing treble to Plain Hunt on 5, Judith helping, which was her best effort to-date, making great progress. I think Sally was quite pleased afterwards. Well done, Sally!<\/p>\n
During a break in Ringing we presented Mandy and Rosemarie with their ART LtR Level 1 and 3 certificates, respectively, and Rosemarie received a card and mounted photos of favourite towers and ringing moments, as she will be sadly leaving us for Germany shortly.<\/p>\n
Back to Grandsire, another first was achieved, this time Andy trebling with increasing confidence to some plain courses. Well done to Andy.<\/p>\n
Gus was inside again, consolidating no. 3 to Plain Hunt.<\/p>\n
Finally, we rang a different 120 Change touch of Grandsire, showing Rosemarie work at bobs and singles, before ringing down.<\/p>\n
A really good practice. Well done to all and thank you to Jeremy, Fay and Anne for leading and helping us.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Eleven ringers from seven towers came to last night\u2019s special practice at Bletchingdon, with Plain Hunt and Grandsire Doubles on the agenda.We kicked off with Plain Hunt on 5 for Mandy, Gus and Andy, helped by Jeremy, Judith, Sue, Rosemarie, Anne and Fay.Next we tried Churchyard Bob with Sally on Treble, giving a gentle introduction … <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/bicester.odg.org.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Rosemary_ART_Cert_June_2019.jpeg\")
