Is that page reference correct? I can't see it on that
page. Given the name, I assume was rung by a Cambridge
band.

It was certainly the intention that it should not have the
word 'Treble' in it. Our logic was that Treble Jump, like
Treble Bob, was for methods where the treble dodged in every
position. I'm not sure that, with hindsight, I agree with
that view – for that matter, I'm not certain I agreed with
it at the time – and I wouldn't object if the CC want to
rename it by inserting 'Treble'. But it wasn't omitted by
error.

I think it was first rung on the Wirral on either 31 Dec
2002 or 1 Jan 2003, having been composed by Ander and me on
the ferry over there. I'm not particularly surprised if
that quarter was not printed in the RW. Andrew Tibbetts,
who called it, was not very good at remembering to submit
quarters for print. An extent of it was rung in a peal on
30 Dec 2003 at St Bene't's.
