I know the only times I post on here are to brag about my bellringing achievements, but today I rang stedman perfectly on my first attempt, which made the whole bell tower go "oooooh". And that may be the closest I'll ever come to an "and then everybody clapped" moment
The interesting phenomenon of an experienced spliced surprise major band completely fucking up a surprise-like plain-hunting method like Double Norwich is so interesting. Like, the treble dodges were load bearing, huh.

Look I even checked

This is in fact, very funny.
Some rules in society are so-called "idiot rules" that are only in place for idiots. The Thing You're Not Supposed To Do can be done safely, but since an idiot can't do it, they have to officially prohibit it from everyone. And if you do fuck it up and end up eating shit, you're best off dusting yourself off, hoping that nobody saw you, and never tell anyone that you even tried, so they won't find out that you're an idiot.

Shoutout to the bit in the National 12 Bell broadcast last night where Matthew Tosh was briefly transformed into Blåhaj.
Yesterday's ringing achievements for me and my partner:
My partner: first time ringing a bell by themselves, both strokes!
Me: peal of Yorkshire 8.
Me when I've gotta actually ring the peal that I signed up for -> pissing and shitting and crying.
Four hours of Bristol, what could possibly go wrong?
Oof ouch owie my hands :(
Got the peal tho :)

39°c weather.
3 learners
5 good ringers
8 extremely heavy bells
1 extremely underwhelming practice night
How heavy?
41cwt
they call it campanology because i'm. camp

“Could you be the chosen one?”
“I am very much the guy who’s here.”
This is how I feel when I request the treble in surprise before the ringing master can give it to a learner who has no idea what they're doing ("it's just the treble, it's not that hard")
just did my first quarter peal, but I don’t have any friends my age who would even knows what that means, so I’m just sitting in my flat trying to feel a sense of accomplishment until I see the septuagenarians who will be proud of me on Friday
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!
What did you ring? Also how are your hands?
Thanks! I was just covering a splice of grandsire and bob doubles, so I could put my brain on autopilot a bit- it was just the physical side of 44 minutes of stamina and don’t lock your knees (I thought I didn’t but afterwards there was an audible click when I bent them again, also my knees were sweaty? didn’t know that was a thing) and oh my eyebrow itches I need to find a way to not think of that
My hands are actually fine! I was thoroughly warned by my tower captain that I canNOT let anything in my grip slide/rub if I don’t want to finish with bloody hands, so besides the muscles being a bit sore from doing the same motion over and over, they’re grand
Next step, doing one from the treble, I think Easter is when we intend to check that one off
But again, thanks for letting me a bit self indulgent and ask this site for some hype haha
Firsts are always to be celebrated, and it's only onwards and upwards from here. I know it felt like an insurmountable hill when I learnt.
Getting good enough to pull a handstroke with one hand while you fix you hair with the other is a really good skill to have, which is also good for inconvenient itches. I did once ring a quarter on an uneven floor and my right foot was on an angle for the entire time, and it was just awful by the end.

Me at the pub with the ASCY tour band after practice this evening. But hey, I tried Bristol Max for the first time, so how bad could they possibly be?
