Striking Competition
Team 2009 and this years winners.
Photo's (by Fran Christiansen) of the
band who rang Arch's 'Bus Pass' Birthday Quarter (1260 Grandsire Triples) at
Olveston on Sat 7th Feb.
L-to-R: Andrew Williams, Val Johnson, Matt
Johnson, Arch Andrews, Jill Usher, Bryn Shackleton (C), Trish Donald, Philip
Coward.
Two or three firsts: Matt's first triples, Val's
first on eight, and Jill thinks it may have been her first on eight as well,
but isn't sure. After a restart, with a faster pace, the quarter went very well,
and everybody declared Olveston be a pretty good ring actually 'when you get
them moving a bit'.
An augmented band then repaired to 'The Ship' at
Oldbury for beer and food
