A full Devon Peal (Sixty on Thirds) was rung today by Bethany, Bob, Chris(C), Janet, Janice and Nigel to celebrate the wedding of Claire and Stuart.
The ringing chamber was subsequently cleaned by Bethany & Janice, well done girls.

Yesterday’s Christingle service was preceded with enthusiastic ringing by Bethany, Bob, Chris, Emma, James, Janice, Keith and Nigel. This morning we had Bethany, Bob, Chris, Janice and Nigel.
Next ringing practice at Chawton: 5th January
A Devon Peal aka 60 on thirds was rung before the carol service this afternoon. Conducted by Chris, the players were Bob, Janice, Keith, Martin, Nigel and Will,
First Sunday of the month means ringing for service at Chawton. Today we (Bethany, Bob, Chris, Janet, Janice and Keith) rang call changes combined with ringing up and down in threes.
Tomorrow will see the first Chawton practice in preparation for a full range of ringing in Chawton and Bentworth throughout December.
Over the last few weeks Chawton and Bentworth have joined forces, coming together for Sunday ringing and for Monday practices and this has proved greatly beneficial to both bands.
On Monday this week the practice was held in Chawton. Ten people turned up and we rang call changes, plain hunt, plain bob minimus, plain bob doubles and grandsire.
Excellent practice, admirably led by Chris Hurley from Bentworth.
Our practice sessions over the last couple of weeks have largely been spent practising call changes and plain hunt although the most recent ended with a touch of Grandsire. Practice makes perfect so they say.
