Update 11th November 2024

Posted on by

Just a quick one, a couple of branches have had to make last minute changes to their Saturday meetings. So I’ll be quick. 

Guild Quiz

This was held on Saturday at Syresham. The questions had been prepared by Cathy & Simon Dixon and were a right mixture. The chippy tea was provided by a chip van (once its parking space had been cleared). The winners were a motley crew going by name HawHaw (no traitors present). They were presented with a tea hamper to share and much kudos. An excellent evening was had. Just one more event and we’ll wrap up on 2024. 

CCCBR News

The CCCBR shop now has the new logo t shirts available. In grey, grey or grey, by the looks of things. I like the back, that’s clever. https://cccbr.org.uk/2024/11/08/bellringing-t-shirts-and-pull-up-banners-for-sale/ Less keen on the logo across the whole front, that’s not my style preference. 

Notes of the October Executive are available. https://cccbr.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/CCCBR-Executive-Meeting-Notes-October-2024.pdf

Hoping your muffles didn’t slip if you rang for Remembrance Sunday and that they were all on the right side (or all on the same side, at least). It’s interesting how often half muffled ringing is noticed for being different. Thanks to all those people going up to put the muffles on and take them off again. 

Thanks
