[Callers] Chuck the Budgie

Chuck the Budgie by Rick Mohr is a favorite dance of mine (thanks Rick!), and I've called it pretty frequently. I've noticed that generally, if there's going to be a problem, it's in the transition back around to the beginning of the dance (Long Waves, New N Allemande R A1 New Men Allemande L 1x -- no balance) It feels different coming from the waves than it does starting from Improper position. So, a while ago, someone suggested shifting the dance by 2 parts so that the A becomes the B and vice versa. At the time, I didn't see the point, but after calling it on Saturday and having serious problems with that transition, I'm reconsidering. Making this change would let one walk through cover that transition, rather that having to do a second for people to feel that transition. Alternately, I could leave the dance as is, but start the walk through as if it was a Becket (beginning with long lines in B1 with with your partner on the side). I'd be interested in any thoughts on either of these alternatives, or on folks who advocate leaving it as is.
