Recipe for Rock buns?

Question

When I was at school we used to make really yummy bran buns. Basically they were rock buns but nicer and involved using part regular flour, part wholemeal flour. Anyone have a recipe for that? I can't find it! I

was debating simply using a rock bun recipe and using half wholemeal flour but I wasn't sure if that was likely to work
