[r-t] Bad Boy compositions

[Philip Earis]

Dear Mr Glint,

Bravo - rarely have I encountered such perceptive self-awareness. Your own words "traditional mould" very neatly encapsulate your compositional preferences (smiley thing)

Anyway, whilst the methods are always going to be a millstone in such a composition, Don's new effort certainly is a very nice arrangement.  It shares an appealing feature with Rob Lee's palindromic 12-spliced masterpiece in that every call affects three numerically consecutive bells (a good way to link run courses).  Don's composition also includes all 7 leads of the plain course.

Now all that's needed for improvement is a simple rearrangement where all the mega-tittums leads of Superlative occur in the same part...
