I enjoy my free time, and never seem to quite get enough. Giving up peal ringing was very helpful in this area, as I would often find myself clocking hundreds of miles each month to get to peals, which always tended to be mediocre. Somewhere between the one hour and two hour point I would begin to think about all the other things I could be doing with my time.

But even in my keenest peal ringing days, I never contemplated something like this:

Sometimes I wonder what goes through other people's heads. I can understand that the mental and physical challenge of ringing 72,000 changes in hand might be appealing to some people, even if it is not for me. But a tediously long peal of minimus, with only one bell each, ringing just three methods, on a miniring...!? I must be getting old - I am sure this is the sort of thing I would have considered cutting edge when I was a lad.
