Conducting Follow-on Day - Saturday 15 May 2010.

Following the success of the first conducting workshop in February, tutor Tim Bayton organised and ran a follow-on day on 15th May, to take those who were ready a little further: Sue Sturdy, Sophie Hughes, Lynne Hughes and John Steere.

The day started with theory and coffee in the comfort of Tim’s home, as we practised transposing coursing orders without having to ring at the same time! Then it was on to Clyst St George for two hours calling and transposing touches of Plain Bob or Little Bob Minor, aided by the helpers: Tom Hinks and Andrew Digby.

Lunch was enjoyed at the White Hart in Woodbury, and touches of Major planned for the afternoon. Then on to Littleham (Exmouth) to be joined by helpers Lester Yeo, Cathy Civill and Roger King, for an afternoon of nearly all Little Bob, and some spliced Plain and Little. As a break from conducting, a well struck half course of Cambridge Major was rung with 15 year old Sophie to finish.

Thanks to Tim for organising and tutoring the day with enthusiasm and to the helpers who gave their time so readily.
