  GENERAL

It was felt that, under the new format for meetings, there was too long a gap between the afternoon and evening ringing. It was decided to have the afternoon ringing from 3:30 to 5:00 and the evening from 6:30 to 8:30.

 

There being no further business the meeting was closed. Evening ringing continued at Mobberley.
