Certainly did John! From the table in the ringing room - quite clear, no=
t much rope-rattle, and all bells audible. Even a few groans and muttering=
s from the ringers!=20

Will put it on the web in the next couple of days.=20

Went to Surfleet for a peal on Saturday (unfortunately miss-called) -=
not rung there for several years, and had forgotten what a fine sounding i=
nstrument they are, despite being a little flighty round the front. Ken He=
sketh did a good job with the internal acoustics.

I had a crawl round the frame afterwards - quite a tight installation=
. Two-tiers with 1,2,4,6 on top - H-frame below, low-sided above - and go=
t some photos of the bells which will be added to the Rings of 12 site shor=
tly. The trebles would appear to be lost-wax castings; the front six have =
bar headstocks (except the 3rd, which looks like it got a conventional repl=
acement when the bells were rehung by Taylors in 1983). The two trebles ha=
ve flange tops.

As a result of our "ring" there, it has been propsed to hold the 2003=
final of the 12-bell contest at Surfleet - should make for an enjoyable da=
y.

Michael.
