Many thanks! I suspect that the list of actual chimes is relatively 
accurate, but clock chimes will be very sketchy as only 5 bells and 
above made it into Dove. Please let me know of any chimes\clock 
chimes that have at least 4 bells that do not appear on the list. I 
am especially interested on those that have been lost prior to the 
first edition of Dove, or that never made it in any edition.

PS I hope the beer was good! On Tuesday the local "apres-ring" pub 
had run out of Green King IPA and had to replace it with Old Hooky - 
shame!
