Wednesday - Urchfont S Major scored at St Michael's, Bath. Thursday - Bristol S Major scored at Ditcheat. Friday - Stedman Triples lost at Buckland Dinham.

On thursday we visited Longleat Safari Park and I took some photos. --------------------------- Sunday, 2nd September, 2007 Cumbria 2007 Dave Rothera organised a peal at each of the Cumbrian twelves over the August Bank Holiday weekend. I find this is always an enjoyable areas of the country to visit, and it was nice to do so without the emphasis being on walking. Fine weather, beer, food and company made it an excellent weekend, the icing on the cake being that all three peal attempts were successful: Friday - Yorkshire S Maximus at Carlisle Saturday - Stedman Cinques at Whitehaven Sunday - Cambridge S Maximus at Broughton-in-Furness Yewbarrow and Great Gable, taken from Wast Water --------------------------- |
