Just bringing two threads together, Normanby Surprise Royal (double, mx, 
three consecutive blows, conventional leadheads) splices like a dream with 
Double Resurrection Cyclic Bob, producing an amazing musical fusion.

If you take the 'magnificent six' template (which relies on the rounds -> 
queens -> tittums -> reverse rounds -> reverse queens -> reverse tittums 
transposition):

s9                1243567890
2,s3,s5,7,8,9,s12 1357924680 (12 leads)

Now this (repetaed five times) will give a true 5040 using a treble-dodging 
cyclic method such as the one below, with glide symmetry and three 
consecutive blows:
-5-4.5-5.3-4-1-36.6.7.8.6-9-6-7.6-6.8-7-1-58.5.4.3.5-2

But for something even better, if you use Resurrection (a plain method), 
this base (repeated five times) gives half a peal.  It can be padded out *at 
will* with singled in courses of Resurrection and blocks of homes of 
Normanby, inserted when you've got the most concentrated music.

3*=-s-
3+=--s
4=-s-- (first bob is Normanby)

All courses called as Resurrection, except blocks of 'homes' where after 
first call method changes to Normanby, and changes back after last call. eg 
3* = Res(-),Nor(s),Nor(-),Res.....

3240 Resurrection, 1000 Normanby.  Fill in the rest according to taste! This 
is hugely exciting. Just listen to it on Abel, people, and be converted.
