*giggle*
I love how in the first photo it appears that Darkness is saying to Chaos "Can you believe she's having a photo taken?! Let's just do clown impressions. *snigger*"
And you have room for a *sideboard* in your tower??? WOW. (That heater looks very familiar actually O.O Looks like the same one we have! haha)

LOL!
I mean, I'm laughing with you. I have also recently taken unfortunate photos of myself and posted them on my blog. (Have you seen them? They are here.) Maybe there's something in the water.
Also? I LOVE YOUR SOCKS.
Smooshes!

Knowing nothing about bellringing that hasn't been posted on this blog since I started reading it, I must say that certain mostly unformed preconceptions have been smashed. Somehow, between talk of ancient towers and cobwebs, my mind has been vaguely picturing dark grey (gray?), cramped stone rooms. Brightly lit, with whitewashed walls, colorful rugs and desk-ish things were not imagined. Though perhaps the light is mostly flash. 
As for the bruises... I often come home with random bruises on my legs. Mostly from nervous dogs standing on them, putting way more pressure than said dog should have been able to given its size. I also frequently acquire scratches on my arms (mostly from dog nails, which are more prone to causing damage than cat nails. Cat nails are easier to avoid, mostly).

Oh the SOCKS! Thank you for sharing them with us. Hellhounds seem to have lost no dignity by your wearing them. I have red socks with white snowmen on them that I surreptitiously wear under long trousers and sneakers so no one can see. But I can wear them openly on Christmas.
Hmmm. Descriptions of bell ringing frighten me. I'm sure I'd end up with twenty panic attacks thinking I'd missed my turn. I'll just listen instead.
*listens* they're hard to hear from this far away...

Oh, there are plenty of small cramped stone ringing chambers around.  Where six ringers are elbow to elbow, or one ringer is tucked in a corner behind the clock cabinet ... or there are ladders leaning up against the wall, dusty piles of old ringing journals, cardboard boxes of wooden stays (often broken!), several wooden boxes (for height-challenged ringers to stand on) piled in a corner, and nowhere to hang your coat!  You probably don't see many photos of those sorts of chambers, because they are so hard to take photos in!
