Report from Rachael Barber following the A&P District Social and Mini-outing held on Saturday 3rd December 2022.
Just thought you’d like to see photos from yesterday’s December Social & Mini-Outing……a brilliant afternoon with a super crowd of people!
Particular thanks to the amazing Jess Hornsby, Judy Sparling, Matt Watts, Andy Sparling and Roger Barber for doing such a fantastic job of planning and running the ringing, and providing the support that enabled ringers at every level of experience to have a great time!
A warm welcome to new Guild Members Phil Ringrose, Pam Barnsley, Teresa Debski, Fiona Harvey and Mike Rose, who received their Guild Certificates at the Afternoon Tea taken at The Swan at New Alresford.
Ringing started at the 4 bell Ellacombe Chime at Farringdon, followed by ringing at Bishop’s Sutton (5 bells), Old Alresford (6 bells) and New Alresford (8 bells)……many thanks to each of these Towers for allowing us to ring. Overall, nearly 50 District members attended, and I can’t put it any better than Jess who commented “A&P are a great team and yesterday was a great team effort. Was so lovely to spend time with all of you!”
Finally, a very special thank you to our excellent District Chairman, Simon Poyser, whose idea it all was, and who arranged it for us!
