<P>I happened to be working in Stratford, East London today and during lunch
was drawn to the sound of bells coming from St. John's church. I stood
for a few minutes and enjoyed the ringing, almost considering popping in to
see if I could get a grab, and then headed back to work.<BR><BR>Checking on
Dove this evening, and it would seem that there are no bells there! I'm
not normally easily misled, but am I to understand that they were playing a
recording of bells from the tower? Does anyone know if this is a
frequent occurrence? Were there ever any bells
there?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Doug.<BR></P></DIV><!--End group email --></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
