Bells Night

Monday night is our usual evening to practice bells in Tew. For the first time, Ed was actually here to give it a try. Recognizing all the puns of how Ed was "roped in" by me, and "shown the ropes" by Sue, he did very well. (Rope burn goes away, Hun!) :) If only he could see how much of a wimp I was when I first started, he'd be pleased with himself. Plus, Ed was showing the early signs of 'rope sight'!

Up in the tower, Tew's 8 bells. They are the oldest ring of 8 outside Oxford city!

Quite impressive to look at for the first time.

The old ringing chamber (which is now at ground floor level). Last rung in, in the 20's. The walls are blue, and have names of the ringers painted on the walls.

Ed having a go for himself.
