Amy's First Quarter
S
unday 5 April2009

Amy has been learning to ring at St Mark's church, Exeter, alongside her brother Gareth. Their Mum also rings at St Mark's making it a complete family activity. Amy started to learn during 2007, when both she and Gareth were quite young. Now, being a little bit bigger, the time had some to attempt her first quarter peal - the treble to doubles - which she rang faultlessly from start to finish.

Afterwards Amy commented on it being easier and quicker than she thought, but she did get one blister! Despite what she said at the time it hasn't put her off ringing!

We should also thank Gareth for sitting quietly for 41 minutes and not disturbing Amy's concentration.

Well done Amy! Here's to many more...
