The Lilliputters Outing to Guildford

[@irenec4876]

Great Fun!

[@FrancescoBellringer]

St Mary’s are now having restoration works done to the tower and the bells. I hope the maintain their uniqueness

[@Steven_Rowe]

Simon A great video and really great to see so many young people ringing well and may i say having fun. Liked St Nicks, 10 always sounds good. Thought tou might have gone to the Cathedral. They were my dads job, he hung the original 10. Keep the vids coming, always love your vids.

[@AshleyMonck]

Unfortunately there was a peal band at the Cathedral so we couldn’t have them

[@Steven_Rowe]

Ashley Monck you have a great team and no old farts like me lol. Whee does the Lilliputes name come from. Dont tell me its like gtfu One day you will look back on the photos of the band and wonder whereyou all are and wonder what happened to so in so. Life is a bit llke that. Stay with i, its a great hobby and puvs are fun too. You better come to Aus and ring at St Andrews and St Marys. St Mary is a carbon copy of Canterbury and my dad hung them in 1986. And a bloody fine peal they are too

[@simonbellringer]

steven rowe Most certainly not! The Lilliput Sea Scout Hut was our base for the first three Summer Tours we ever did and the name has just stuck ever since!

[@Steven_Rowe]

simonbellringer Thanks Simon Always good to know the origin of things. So is the group all from one area or simply connected via firstly ringing and also social media. Its just so good to see such a large group. Well at leasr today on ringing tours nobody gets lost. I remember eceryone having esso maps of counties,. Ow a smart phone and google maps does the job

[@AshleyMonck]

St Mary’s tower looks like it’s had a stroke

[@simonbellringer]

Ashley Monck Amusing, somewhat. Appropriate, no. Yellow card!

[@charlottemossop8964]

Agreed!!

[@harrymcandrew1447]

the end seems weird were 1 keeps shouting rounds then back rounds then queens 0.o

[@simonbellringer]

It's jump call changes - so instead of changing two bells at a time, we change the position of all the bells. It's excellent for bell control and, when done properly, sounds great!

[@harrymcandrew1447]

i still dont get bell -related stuff used to fancie doing it but dout id fit it in with 2 hobbies already in full use

[@dougievale8094]

How do I join the the Lilliputters?

[@simonbellringer]

Dougie Vale Have Facebook messaged you 😊

[@CJCappella]

Cute!

[@RingerJamie]

Have you ever rung in Norfolk like aylsham or Norwich?

[@simonbellringer]

Yes - I've rung at a few Norfolk towers, including St Peter Mancroft (a fine old 12). Videos from Norfolk towers are elsewhere on my channel - including Saxlingham Nethergate, Castle Acre (excellent 6!), Brockdish, Woodton and Bergh Apton (gruesome!). I also have a few others in the pipeline that were filmed, but have not yet got round to uploading!

[@RingerJamie]

@@simonbellringer Wow im in norfolk and i ring at st peter mancroft once a week! and along with 6 other towers a week hahaha!

[@simonbellringer]

@@RingerJamie I do get about, and know a few people from Norfolk (so pop over occasionally - haven't been for a little while tho!). Will have to let you know when I am next over there, though!
