The sound of church bells in the city


When we were on the dole back in Eastbourne, the bells, the bloody bells used to ruin our precious sunday mornings.

However, once I moved to London I started to enjoy the occasional peal in the heart of the city. Their gentle calling reminded me of my grandparents, even though they were not church-goers particularly. And now when I hear them in British films it reminds me of them and of London and a cool morning mist rolling in off the Thames.
