[email protected] Guild News From the President This morning Sheila and I attended the Remembrance Eucharist at next Executive Committee Meeting. Not everything is bleak, we do the Cathedral. It was a sunny morning with a slight frost on the have towers where exciting things are happening and also well sup- grass and the trees around the Close displaying their beautiful au- ported Ringing Centres. Ringing for both the Queen’s Jubilee and tumnal foliage. The bells of St Thomas could be heard clearly from the Olympics have kept ringing very much in the public eye and it is their tower near the market place as people made their way into the essential that somehow we sustain and build on this interest.
