Debbie was inspired to write this tune after watching Tom Senior and Barbara Cool dance.
Note: At the start of B2, the actives pass left shoulder with one of the top dancers; the other must anticipate a change of direction in order to move smoothly into the hey. One way to accomplish this is cast over their right shoulder out of the preceding L-h star.
