Wedding at Wittering next Saturday (19th May) – one more ringer required

Dear all,

Further to my previous message, we are still one short to make a band of six for the wedding at Wittering next Saturday. It is a 12pm wedding with ringing both before and afterwards, Ringers to turn up at 11:35am. Bells need raising and lowering. Payment is £20 per rope (£15 if only after).

If you have been holding back to give others a chance to get in there first, please do not hold back any longer – we need a sixth ringer. This will only be rounds and call changes, nothing too taxing, and the bells are not heavy. If you are only able to ring afterwards, that might well be possible. Please let me know if you can help us out.

Those who have already responded, yes please, we do need you and a confirmation email will follow once the band is complete.

Regards

Nick Elks

Ringing at Woodston Tomorrow

Good morning!

We have 2 ladies who have come back to bell ringing after 40ish years at Woodston in Peterborough. The ladies have been attending St Mary’s practice on a Thursday to get their hand (and backstroke!) back in. Tomorrow we are ringing at 3pm to allow the ladies a practice at Woodston prior to Sunday’s service ringing.

Anyone who would like to come along and ring these bells would be very welcome and we will ring to the capabilities of the attendees.

Kind regards
