(E)A.2. A call is a means of passing from one course of a method to another.

As I understand that, it means a seconds place call in Bristol is not allowed, as you are not then in another course but the same one. However, putting an 8ths place call in Horsleydown (were it to be allowed) would be perfectly fine. Obviously.

Just noticed that that decision, too, only refers to a "method". No calls allowed for non-method blocks, so Don still can't ring a peal of his method A, sorry.
