[r-t] Unexpectedly musical courses (was Muppet Show S Major)

[Alan Reading]

In answer to the question we rang this at Dore in 2004 (attached). The 
composition was designed to include every possbile run of 5678/8765 
everywhere in the change. So whilst that particular course was not sort 
out especially it must have been in there, turns out to be the 2nd 
course of the peal. I seem to remember the composition was quite fun to 
ring for novelty value but probably not the sort of thing you'd want to 
ring all the time!
Cheers,
Alan
