Google doc of the instructions. Might be better for printing.
I've altered the first two times through to even up the dancing between the couples as much as I can.
Thank you for this Alasdair, I think this will look rather nice by the time we've polished it up this week :)
Just a thought, do you think it would make an appropriate Newcastle Demonstration Section dance? Clearly we'd have to sharpen everything up but I'm sure there's enough time for you to get us into a fit state before the Festival :)
Just to say thank you for your hard work and perseverance with the dem (and to Jen for masterminding it). The dem worked really well and we had some very positive feedback from the audience including, "the covering was very slick", "that was a really good dem, the first dance you did looked very good and I really liked the crossings in the strathspey." "That was really good".
Glad to hear that the dem went well.
Jo, I think it would be nice to write something new for Newcastle. That'll keep the dancer's interests going.
