I landed at BED a couple of days ago, and as I was rolling out
the controllers switched, so I never got the usual instruction
to "turn off at Golf, ground .7". Since Golf was the first
taxiway to turn off on anyway, I made the turn off.

I'm wondering if anyone disagrees and thinks the right thing to
do was what I actually did -- stay with the Tower until I could
get permission to change to Ground.

David, in your own post, you state that the tower DID tell you to contact
ground. In the first paragraph, "turn left at Golf, ground .7".. most towers
will shorten the statement as BED did, "most" ground controls are always
121.x.. so the ".7" is 121.7

Sorry to take up bandwith with this, but please look at that
first paragraph of mine you quoted. I said I "never got" such
an instruction. I'm well aware that had tower actually said
to me "ground, .7" I would have been all set. Unfortunately,
they did not do so. I operate out of BED, so I expect to hear
them say "turn left at Golf, ground .7" and they didn't in the
confusion of switching controllers in the tower.
