[Bell Historians] Rings of 12 - Keynotes

[DJ Bryant]

I've decided to stick with flat for all because it ensures
uniformity - to do otherwise
is rather haphazard - as has already been discussed here, the
difference between C# and Db is meaningless as
far as bells are concerned, and there doesn't seem any point in
perpetuating it. Although Canterbury may usually be described as C#, there
is really no reason why whey shouldn't be described as Db.
