Congratulations to our tower captain, Paul Flavell on his special peal today to mark the 50th anniversary of his first peal!
The band rang 5088 Bristol Surprise Major at St James the Great, Norton, Sheffield, South Yorkshire to mark the 50th anniversary of Paul Flavell’s first peal on 18th June 1970 – a celebration delayed by Covid!
Paul said “It went very well and was a trip down memory lane for me as I learned to ring at Norton (Sheffield) in the late 1960s and rang there till 1985. I shall enjoy my curry tonight!” Enjoy! And a couple of pints too!🍺
