[r-t] ringing-theory Digest, Vol 16, Issue 6

[Samuel M. Austin]

Thank you all. You've all hit the nail on the head. I have rung Spliced S 
Minor before but I didn't want to be the one eyed man in the saying "In the 
blind man's world, the one eyed man is king".

I made them do Primrose and Cambridge yesterday but they messed it up.

Stupid ringers.

Sam

>Once you're familiar with all those methods, change the backwork to

>Carlisle-above methods, and when you've learned them all, John Warboys has
>composed a 1440 of all the 23 methods spliced.
>
>After that, there are 6 London-above methods (of which you know two 
>already:
>London and Wells) and 12 Norwich-above methods to bring you up to all 41.
>Ring a peal.

>When learning the methods, also learn where you will pass the treble, which
>makes ringing them by over- and under-works much easier!
