Yes, please! I can't get it straight!
What I've got is:
13-18 1s set to 1st corners & turn partner LH to face 2nd corners

but Peter wrote:
the Turn CPCP is 3 bars each turn which is infinitely more civilized then
the norm.

Thanks

I have no idea where this came from, but see below.

Direct quote from p3 of The Galloway Album, by Hugh Foss, which is my
source for the dance:

13-15 1st couple turn first corners by the right hand (see Fig 2),
16-18 Each other by the left hand,
19-21 Second corners by the right hand, and
22-24 Cross to own sides giving left hands.

I won't try to reproduce Fig 2. :>)

I hope that clears it up. I would be very interested to know the
source of the incorrect version given above.

Thanks to all those who responded to my request for information on bars 13 to 18 of Cairn Edward.

Now can anyone tell me how to get hold of a copy of Galloway Album, by Hugh Foss - I looked in TACBooks catalogue, but couldn't find it.

Hi, Steve
You might try Lewis Innes at SNDC. He took over all
the Foss publications after the Archives closed down.

His address is
kelpi@sndc.i-way.co,uk

Ron

Thanks Ron.
