Our Jess whilst she is in Chester on an apprenticeship. Only been there a few weeks and she did this! Well done Jess. 💪👏

Small but perfectly formed rabble of 7 with @GrimsbyRingers tonight - pleasantly surprised by a good practice after having August off, although I did somehow manage to fumble the sally and subsequently jab myself in the nose ("Am I bleeding? I think I'm bleeding")

@GrimsbyRingers have tried this before, it's a bit of a faff with methods, but works reasonably well for call changes #bellringing

[John Hall @quasimodo116]

As per @5040Grandsire's suggestion, we tried ringing the front 5 and back 5 as a 10 at Saffron Walden last night. It is indeed a musical combination, but a little hard work round the back if the front 5 go too fast!

[A. Rebecca Dixon @AngelDustAddict]

Because the highlight of #bellringing practice is playing The Price is Right with the call change teaching aids while our esteemed captain tries to explain Plain Bob to someone (and gets clonked on the back of the head with the cards 🤦‍♀️)

[Grimsby Minster Ringers @GrimsbyRingers]

We did this. Well done @AngelDustAddict on keeping on ringing despite the 3rds rope unravelling 👏

Aaand another one (and I absolutely did not almost throw up in the third extent)

(And I also absolutely did not try to make long fifths in Grandsire 2 leads from the end #brainfart)

We did this as part of NB quarter peal month. Well done to Jay ( a day belated happy 18th) and Roy. Really good speed. Very enjoyable👏👏

Feel like I should've put "First QP while trying not to hack up a lung" on the footnote #bellringing

[Grimsby Minster Ringers @GrimsbyRingers]

We did it! Well done to KG who was dragged in at last minute. He enjoyed it that much we are now doing 2 more quarter peals this week! Hoping to have more ' firsts'. Really lovely ring. Thankyou

@GrimsbyRingers Did you not notice that I got to sit out twice in a row cos I sat quietly in the corner? 😋

[A. Rebecca Dixon @AngelDustAddict]

14 + 2 visitors + 2 first-timers + Alfred makes 19 tonight, standing room only (and lots of QP practice for the LDGCB 125th anniversary) #bellringing

Using pre-charity-bingo-time to work out when Roy is off for QP month #bellringing

Strong ringer identity. 🔔 What do you fancy having on your gravestone? 💀⚰

We did a thing. It was false. Boohoo.

(You know something isn't right when the conductor hisses "shit!" about 39 minutes in when things seemed to be going lovely and there were very few hiccups) #bellringing

Highlight of my working day: I just found a curlywurly in my drawer. #SNACKMONSTER

[Bellringing in London @Londonringing]

Delighted to see @dickonlove MBE recognised for his commitment to #bellringing and supporting new ringers across London and Kent in the #NewYearHonours. This is the BBC summary. #RoyalJubileeBells @Garlickhythe @kcacrofficial

[A. Rebecca Dixon @AngelDustAddict]

I'm "usually ungraceful" ringing in general, let alone ringing the tenor. 🤣🤣🤣 #bellringing

Women’s Place in the Belfry. A stunning letter printed in @theringingworld in 1956.

Dear Edna, clearly a much better ringer than her husband, but to whom milk bars were dens of iniquity.

[A. Rebecca Dixon @AngelDustAddict]

10 for Remembrance Service ringing today with @GrimsbyRingers (one insisted on taking the photo instead of being in it 🤣). Sunday challenge though: one of us is ex-forces. Just from footwear, guess who? 😉 #bellringing

[Grimsby Minster Ringers @GrimsbyRingers]

We did this for one of our fellow Northern Branch ringers who passed in September.
She was a lovely lady. 🥰
