    was staying in hardy's church on saturday night there an from about eight in the morning the bells of what i assume was christ church were ringing for basicly hours on end, with brief spaces in between! whats the deal there is this normal for a sunday morning because we liked the hotel but wouldn't stay there if that was the normal wake up call!

    I think it does this pretty much every day, they always seem to be going whenever I pass. I know a few people who live around that area and according to them you get used to it. Not sure I would.

    I used to live off Francis St and Sunday mornings with a hangover were torturous. It's not just Christchurch, but St Patrick's, St Nicholas', St Catherine's etc etc...

    Oh dear, I sympathise, and I can see how you might pick that place to stay without realising quite how bad it is!

    I lived right opposite Christchurch for a year. I love the sound of bells, but Christchurch bells can ring for half an hour at a time and it does seem endless.

    Bloody bells woke me up there Sunday morning. Hope it doesn't take me 19 years to get used to them!
