Ringing Records

My ringing records have built up over the years. Putting them online and writing simple scripts to analyse them has helped me learn new computer techniques, making my job a lot easier!

Most of these records are just text files that I create from various lists. I doubt they will look very pretty under WWW as they are not HTML aware. They are also links to files that I update each month, so I shall have to remember to update these links each month! Please contact me if you find any files that are obviously more than two months out of date.

Quarter Peal Records

I do not keep my quarter peal records online on this machine. I update a Microsoft Word file on my Macintosh every so often. This means I can only have the summary of quarter peals rung available here.

Tower Records

I have kept very accurate records for the towers that I have visited, and a fairly accurate list of towers not visited! These are the two data files that the analysis is run from. Note that both these files are wide and are meant to be printed out on 132 column line printer paper, so do not expect them to look pretty on the screen!

Analysis of Tower Records

The lists of towers I have and have not visited is used by a Unix script to analyse where I have and have not rung. Various files are produced in the same format as the initial data file, but sorted or grouped in different ways. The files available are as follows:

Towers rung in:

Towers not rung in: There are other lists that I can forward on request, such as a complete list of the towers rung in listed by county etc etc. Please contact me if you would like to see any of the further lists. If there is enough response, I shall add them to the list above.

Ringing Worlds

For my own benefit, I have a list online of all the Ringing Worlds that I have at home. I have a complete set from 1967 up until the present issue. Please contact me if you need anything looking up in that year range.
