Where was the sound of bells at 8.12 this morning, I thought at least I would have heard one somewhere in the distance when I stood in the drizzle. Various places round the world including the South Pole were taking part even Big Ben chimed what do we get from Dover, silence.

River's church bell was tolling, my neighbour's door bell was ringing and I rang a hand bell from my window too!

We rang ours but couldn't hear if anyone else in Eythorne was!

St Leonards Church in Deal began ringing dead on time, my grandson joined in with a small hand bell in the garden. The Olympics are finally here. Be interesting to see who has the honour of lighting the Olympic cauldron.

At least River and Deal as well as some individuals took part, shame on the town though.
I also rang my doorbell Mark.
