#bellringers — Public Fediverse posts

Stretched ourselves this morning at the 8-bell surprise practice at MRDC. 8-spliced for me and C&Y for Sheila. Great fun. Thanks Nicki Thomas and everyone for the warm welcome.

@silveraura7 I saw you posted this about a year ago, but as far as #HandChimes, I might be able to give some pointers to other #Blind #BellRingers out there who could use thek. I don't have experience with standard #HandBells though.

I was on t’radio today!

Listen to (a little bit of) me and my lovely colleagues talk about how me make a #bell at the #bellfoundry in the #BBC #Radio4 #documentary “Bells That Still Can Ring”. There’s great interviews with Oliver Caroe at #StPaulsCathedral, the sound engineer behind AC/DC’s #HellsBells and a team of #bellringers.

@Helen50 @Tudor_historian Yes, the #BadlyBehavedBellringers are not at all surprising!
I would also love to share this on our museum’s Christmas socials if that’s okay?

As Americans come together thankful, let us remember those who don't have enough. If you can, send a donation to the mission near you, write a check to the Salvation Army, or pack a bag or box for the food shelf. It makes all the difference in the world. Choose good foods, not just the stuff you don't like. Package the fixings for a casserole together. Think about what foods made your childhood better.

SEXY CAMPANOLOGY

Sir, Regarding your article “A peal goes out for trainee #bellringers” (Oct 22) can I add my support and suggest readers hie to their nearest active bell tower tomorrow. Two months into my own training I can vouch it is the most extraordinary experience. You make music without being a musician, connect with your heritage, learn arcane bell-language, commune with ringers and get a very respectable upper body workout into the bargain. When you pull just right, and the bell swings just right, it feels out of body, like you’re swinging up with it; it’s gently pulling you and you’re gently pulling it. Well, it’s sexy.
