Help,

    I've got to teach this very shortly and I seem to have mis-laid my book
(probably lent it to some-one), I think the instrcuctions are correct but,
how does one do a half turn and lead out to the side in two bars?

The Singing Sands.


Priddey
Strathspey 3 couples.



1 - 8 The Tourbillon

1 - 2 First and second couple turn partners with both hands half-way round,
then dropping inner hands the first man leads his partner to ladies side
line, whilst the second lady leads her partner to the mens side line.

3 - 4 All set.

5 - 6 First couple and second couple turn partners with both hands halfway
round then dropping inner hands the first lady leads her partner to second
place on opposite sides, whilst the second man leads his partner to first
place on opposite sides.

7 - 8 All cross back to own sides giving right hands.

9 - 16 First lady half figure of eight right shoulder around third man while
first man right shoulder half figure of eight around second lady then pass
right shoulder into right shoulder half reels of three across, first lady

second place.

round to end in order 2, 3, 1.
