London, Bristol, Superlative, Pudsey: a new classic combination?

Well, maybe not. But in our continuing 8-spliced project, we decided that these are the methods we need more practice at, so we rang them in a quarter with a nice palindromic six-part composition:

1344 Spliced Surprise Major (4m)
Simon J Gay
   2345678
----------
S  5738264
P- 7864523
B- 6784523
L- 5867342
B- 6587342
P  7452638
S- 4238765
----------
6 part
P may be replaced throughout by C, N or Y.

The quarter went smoothly once we had got through the first two leads; it took a remarkable number of attempts before I was truly convinced that the 7th had to dodge 3-4 with the treble in Superlative, and after that was sorted out, I then had similar problems in Pudsey… anyway, success in the end.

 

Maybe next time we'll have another go at a 7-part all-the-work composition.
