[Mgs] brake bleeding question

With both my cars I have to use a 2-stage process.  First fill and 
low-pressure bleed either with the pedal and a one-way valve on the 
slaves/calipers, or a Gunsons EeziBleed (which doesn't need the valve as it 
is a continuous flow process).  However that always leaves me with a long 
pedal that pumps up, but then goes long again after just a few seconds.  the 
2nd stage is to get someone to stand on the pedal while I rapidly open and 
close each caliper nipple in turn.  This always gets an extra 'lump' of air 
out, and after that it is fine - i.e. virtually no difference in pedal 
'length' between one pump and several.
