In the top half of the table, each row shows the effect of using various
calls for one method. New Bob Bobs, Grandsire Singles and Grandsire Extremes are
the standard calls for each method (where appropriate),
then the other calls give different variations. For
instance ringing Union Bob with a Wallflower Single would give Marston
(also called Watling Street).
What you do at a call is shown in the lower half; read the set of work in the
column below your variation. So, for instance,
if a Bob is called in Homebrew as you were about to double-dodge 4-5 up, you would
make long 5ths (4 blows behind) instead.
