This Tuesday, the 10th March 2020, the 8-bell practice will focus on Grandsire Major.
Two things to say:
1 We will need help!
2 We will also be ringing everything from rounds & called changes upwards, so all abilities welcome as usual.

Just a reminder, that this Monday (2nd Dec) is our next Method Monday.
We are planning to ring touches of St Nicholas Doubles and variable hunt doubles.
Practice time 6 till 7.30 followed by beer and Wetherspoons pizza.
Happy learning.
Tuesday 8th October at 7:30pm (until 9:00pm) is 8 bell practice at St. John’s. Following a series of well attended practices, we continue with Plain Hunt, Single Oxford Bob Triples, Plain Bob Triples, Stedman Triples, Grandsire Triples. We will, of course, be ringing other request methods & rounds & called changes as usual, so all ringers most welcome.
This is not an elite practice night. All are welcome.
THIS OUTING HAS SADLY HAD TO BE CANCELLED DUE TO LACK OF CONFIRMED NUMBERS (FEWER THAN 8), MAKING THE DAY FINANCIALLY NOT VIABLE.
I would appreciate feedback – you can contact me via the link further down, below.
Best wishes,

Dear District!
Following the poster that went out to tower contacts last week, here are all of the finalised details I have been busy working on. If all goes to plan, looks to be a great trip, in an Area of Natural Beauty. Historical towers for ringers, bygone trams and cream teas along the coast for those that join us that do not ring.
Please let me know names and numbers as soon as you can, plus your lunch choices. There is a downloadable pdf pack below, so you can print of all, or the pages you need. Also screen grabs of the pdf for instantaneous ease of viewing if you’re going paperless!
I hope to see many of you there! All are welcome.

This is not an elite practice night. All are welcome.
Dear all,
Here are the details of the next meeting. Apologies for the delay as we were trying to organise skittles for after the meeting, however that has proven too hard this year, watch this space for next year.
Everyone welcome to come along even if you are not taking part in the striking contest. If there are any teams for the striking contest, please let Colin Butler know.
A general poster for the Outing at the end of the month will be sent out after this e-mail. Please encourage all your members to come along. Full details will be released at the meeting.
Look forward to seeing you next week.

Our bells/sliders/clappers have come home at last.
Monday night practices resume from 6:00pm until 7.30pm, followed by beer.
There will be no specific Method Monday for September (October as normal), as it will just be great to get everything back up and running again. BUT we will try to ring several touches of Little Bob Minor!
Also huge congratulations to Ben and Hannah, who have just announced their engagement.

C&S District July Practice, this Saturday at St Mary’s, Southampton. Everyone welcome from rounds upwards. Method of the Month: Yorkshire Surprise Royal.
Hone your doubles methods skills at this supportive practice led by the district ringing masters.
Excellent opportunities to test out touches of methods you are working on. There are also six bells (unringable) in the pub next door!!!
If anything, go to see the ringing chamber light fitting!
June’s monthly district practice sees us at St. Peter’s, Bournemouth (29.06.2019 from 6:00pm until 8:00pm).

Last month we rang Single Oxford Triples, and in previous evenings Plain Bob Triples, Grandsire Triples, Plain Hunt.
Tonight’s the night for calling touches of Grandsire.
This is not an elite practice night. All are welcome. Rounds and call changes upwards.
Don’t forget, all things Erin on Saturday 18th May at Southampton, Bitterne Park 6:00pm until 8:00pm.
I believe this is also still the world’s lightest ring of 12.
