11 ringers sun morning with a bit of outside support. Raised 6 in the peal (relatively well) for the first time in a long while, 2 lots of plain hunt and some finely struck call changes. Plus rounds for a couple of more advanced recruits.
A good morning's ring. #sidcup

So many wonderful photos for #ringfortheking
I wonder, has the king ever rung? 🤔 #GodSaveKing

[Sidcup_Bells @Sidcup_Bells]

A total of 18 people present yesterday including new recruits, established ringers and a couple of potential new ringers. A milestone well reached. Onwards to the next stage! #sidcup #ringfortheking #GodSaveTheKing

Ready to #RingfortheKing at around 14.30. A mile stone for the new recruits. #sidcup #GodSaveTheKing

Last practice was very busy practice with a lot of band placing - with focus on rounds and call changes for our relatively novice band, plus the off turning over a single bell for a couple. 17 people in total and a good number of experience ringers to assist. 🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔🔔

🔔Update of training progress for our new ringers...
Well done so far to our newbies we are training to Ring for the King. We are welcoming four of our new ringers to join with our band for rounds practice on Wednesday night, and our other friends are working hard on their 1/2

Another successful morning's training session! Good to see a trainee progress to both strokes and 2 others very much on the way!
Good Friday so the one occasion on a fully silenced clapper - the weight difference and ringability was very noticeable vs fully muffled. #Sidcup

A very successful training morning last week!
Photo from earlier in the session, though 5 trainees each have come a long way in the relatively small amount of time in the tower. #sidcup #bellringers #ringfortheking
