NOTE: we did all two couple dances in three couple sets, borrowing standing couple from the set below where needed<./div>
1st set, 1w dances to 2m pl (who steps up) WHILE 1m to 1w pl - 1st both face out, 1st 2nd set, 1st 2nd qtr turn Rh, all move to Rt into petronella diamond;
1st 2nd set and petronella turn twice;
1st 2nd Rh ACROSS and Lh back, end facing anticlockwise;
both W & both M dance out on own sides, meet below 3rd & dance up, 1st cast while 2nd loop ot to top places.
1w 2m cast while ptnrs advance to face newly arrived ptnr, halfREEL4 on diag. and end on same diag.;
ROTATING CHAIN: sequence of three repeats: end of line half turn Rh, new ends forward 1/8th while mid ch.pl Lh to form new line, THEN 3/4 turn Rh on sides to progressed places;
2w 1m cast, dance BtoB, & set WHILE ptnrs dance BtoB then set twice advncg diagonally to form diag. line 1m2w2m2w;
turn ptnr Bh, leading to half pousette, all set.
bars 17-24: by bar 19 all four dancers are on a diagonal line, casted dancers facing BtoB ones about to retire.
Casted dancers then BtoB on same track as previous BtoB, or dance a LSh BtoB, finally setting to their partner.
With a RSh BtoB, asTHEY retire the setting dancer needs to step wide to avoid collision.
It seems important that all dancers are CONFIDENT in their patterns
and REMEMBER which part they are doing! Cast, BtoB, set OR BtoB, set twice
