There's a certain sound that I often notice at St Mary's in Sydney where a certain "clattery" reverb makes the bells sound grander than they really are. And not in any negative way, I like it.
Your striking has come on a lot compared to what I've seen before. You should be very proud of that. If I might give a small bit of helpful advice, just hold off a tad more when you're ringing towards the end of the chance in 5ths 6ths 7ths and 8ths place. Just a hair is all it needs, but otherwise very solid ringing. Well done!

Indeed, some Whitechapel bells are just bland and boring. But on bigger rings, that blandness turns into power!

Thank you! I like to think I take ringing seriously, and this has made my day.
