'Bell-ringing is more than a call to prayer'

Andrew is the ringing master for the east London bell-ringers. He volunteers at churches in Barking, Romford and Ilford every week with his sons Thomas and Alexander, as well as partner June.
The 53-year-old lorry driver from Havering says ringing is more than a call to prayer and is about teamwork to make a "magnificent" sound.

    You don't actually need earplugs! The ringing chamber isn't really really loud, and it's very important to be able to hear your bell when ringing. The actual staircase leading up to the bells and ringing room can be very loud though!

    About queen and masons: On December 31, 2018, I was involved in a gas explosion, a terrorist attack organized by ISIS in Russia in Magnitogorsk due to the fact that I smoked weed (calling it gas) and masturbate on a guy photo with a song from a James Bond movie there was a line “always hit the floor”, in the house where it happened the terrorist attack on the 7th entrance, the floors on all floors were blown up. (Mag) because I loved to sing Muslim Magomayev, (NITO) - Nikita Topchy, it’s me. Summer of 2020 they managed a terrorist attack in Beirut. The ship in Beirut belonged to Igor Grechushkin, at the age of 17-19 I knew a girl with the name Vika Grechka and went a couple of times to the Beirut restoraunt. Judging by the actions of the Queen of Great Britain, who gave me instructions what to do to be left alone, it can be assumed that she is above the Masonic Priory and terr attacks is all at her will, same as coronavirus

I have persecutions and attacks by powerful people ,,all the side well planned to push me down,, I do not even can sleep or feel at home anywhere,,intruders ,,but I learnt to like amongst snakes ,,they kill me also ,they are powerful,, But when I decided to pray God regarding my pathetic condition ,,I feel little peaceful,, imagine how much more I will be relieved if I really pray 🙏🙏🙏🙏you must also find a new place to pray 🙏🙏🙏
