Alderney’s s minor alphabet

We are progressing nicely through the alphabet. Scored Geegelup last night:

We were particularly attracted to Geegelup because of the ‘half-hunt’ feature, broadening our ringers knowledge of various structures that can be brought into play in composition:-)

Of course Peter has already got Hull & Ipswich so next stop will be Jerrom and then King Edward S Minor

Bob doubles on Alderney

The Alderney band have just enjoyed 2 consecutive weekends of bob doubles:-). The first weekend saw 3 from TC and Jane Le C to help , the second weekend had 1 x Jersey, 3 from St Peter’s/Forest and 1 from UK (he has a cousin live on Ay so is a regular visitor). Starting with plain hunt theory and practice we moved on via playing cards, walking & one handbell each to bob doubles. Everyone was more proficient at the end of the weekend than they had been at the start, also there was chat about returning for more so I judge them a success (but then I would wouldn’t I ??)
