[r-t] Composing challenge - 1788 Plain Bob Maximus

[Alan Reading]

Here's another effort.

Has quite a few runs and cyclic type music but does deploy a sledgehammer
call to get the treble into the hunt, and simultaneously put the other bells
into a backstroke cyclic course. Only 2 types of call though.
