Stockton on Tees at the 12 Bell Final, Worcester.

Stockton's 12 bell squad were at Worcester Cathedral on 24th June for the final of the competition.

The weather was good, the company exhilarating and the arrangements at Worcester were of the highest standard.

We rang sixth and came sixth--everyone one of us thought that was  a splendid effort for our first time in the competition.

The photographs that follow are by Bob Pardy, our man in the Midlands.

=================================================================

We had specially designed T shirts for the occasion. These showed all our practice venues this year--Christine Richardson did the calculations at the bottom!

Barbara Davies, our 13th man, wore her T shirt back home in the North East whilst recovering from a hip operation.  Thanks Barbara !
