@irkibby Thanks for this comment. This outing yesterday was a huge success, very enjoyable, great bells, and Hookey was a great place to finish... never mind the bells (though I have a vid of some absoloutely fantastic spliced to come!!) everybody wanted to go to the pub and drink Old Hookey!! Even had a guy come up from Devon for the outing/pub!! I have vids of all 4 towers to upload, and I hope you enjoy them when I get them on!! :)

Bloxham have a nice old sound, they go ok but have a very long draught, naturally! Banbury are an easy going, quality Taylor ten, oddstruck if i remember correctly but definately worth a visit. Adderbury are a very good old sound, the low ceiling can cause problems for some people. and Hook Norton are absolutely magnificent! I do have video of them... go well and a must visit!! Hope you can get them

@irkibby Looking at doing at doing an outiing round there - what were Bloxham like? And have you been to Banbury, Adderbury or Hook Norton? What are they like?

@simonbellringer I did not ring with the group, but Chris did teach me the touch needed to ring the bells properly. It was a great experience. John

@simonbellringer Pity. What were they like to ring (Bloxham AND Adderbury!!)

These are indeed very fine bells in a magnificent church. I have rung at Bloxham but didn't have my camera back then.

Was Chris not ringing that day?

No. I do not know where he was. This was on a Saturday afternoon wedding.
