Ringing up the tenor at Romsey Abbey
With the tenor weighing in at 22-1-23cwt, I had to ring the gorgeous bell up for the tolling on the 23rd march to mark 1 year of lockdown.
8 bells

When you touch the Sallie you look like in your head your saying ‘’I’m hear I’ve made it’’

As in I've nearly got the bell up or I'm finally ringing a bell? But yes when I got to the abbey I was like yes I'm finally here
Shame I can no longer do this style of ringing up.

That does make sense and also cathedral bells are normally left up
What causes that knocking I thought it might be the Clapper hitting the bell twice or it being lose?

Just the clapper hitting the bell, it does bounce a lil bit but not much, its wooden shafted so I dont think it has the weight to hit the bell and stop so it bounces a bit

I've had a few people say that. I kind of see why as it is quite a deep note for the weight.
You did well there I must admit.

@@RingerThomas so many people want me to ring right handed. But I don't get why. I'm more comfortable left handed. Also my tower cap is a lefty. Thanks for the encouragement.

Yes it did, we went up to go check. Unfortunately the clapper has gotten very stiff and is now very hard to get up right, meaning I can no longer ring it up in peal with the 7th.

I live far away from buckfast (3-4 hour drive) and that was the only video of a bell making any sound whilst I was there. I will try to get back at some point.
