Repeat 4 times. a = bob at 1, bringing up the course-head immediately; the calling then uses the new 6th’s place bell as observation.
Course-ends shown for group H (e.g. Cambridge). For other lead-head groups, the same part-ends will be generated, but in a different order.
Variations: the blocks may be reversed (i.e. B, A) or all the A-blocks may be called at the start, followed by all the B-blocks, or vice-versa (i.e. 5A, 5B or 5B, 5A).

Repeat 4 times. a = bob at 1; the calling uses the 2nd’s place bell in each block as observation.
Course-ends shown for group L (e.g. Primrose).
The callings are for Treble Dodging methods; for Plain Methods they may doubled with singles, but this will reverse 5-6 in half the tenors-together courses.

Repeat 5 times, calling - for (s) except in part 4. Contains each row 4 times.
Bob = 16; single = 1456, both at the half-lead.
In principle this can be adapted for any Little method, irrespective of the treble’s path.
