[Bell Historians] More Telegraph letters

After the restoration at All Saints Leighton Buzzard was finished in 1989 we
had to get rid of the pigeons. I swapped them for some trout at a local pub.

At the village church where I learnt to ring, we sorted the pigeon problem
when the Vicar wasn't looking. When it was almost dark and all the little
darlings were lined up in the tower for bed, one of us, a farmers son handy
with an air rifle, popped them off one after the other then we disposed of
the evidence.

We did that at another tower.  Afterwards someone a mile or so down the lane
complained his white doves had disappeared.
