A few points about this draft of a formula

- no 8756 off the front because I don't like the way they sound.
- Each CRU gets two points - More of an emphasis on CRU's rather than 7468's etc.
- Once the number of 5 bell lbru's have been subtracted from the number of 4 bell lbru's, the total is then doubled to emphasise little bell music in final total.
