It's a good tune, but I understand that Muriel Johnstone, who wrote
it, had actually intended a different tune for this dance.  I don't
know the details of why this was chosen instead but we've played her
other tune (the name of which I can't remember offhand) as the 2nd
tune in this set and it seems to work just as well as the original.
