Yes. It's also interesting to note that this band travelled about the same
distance as our repeat performance last friday. In the original, C Lilley
came from Bedford, the 2 Colemans fron St Neots, Goss came from Ramsey and
the remaining ringers from Peterborough. I expect they all travelled by
train though! They also rang the peal 11 mins quicker than we did. Also
impressive is the sped which Bell news published it!

Its interesting to see that this was the first peal for Arthur Holmes father
of Bill Holmes of Edenham
