We "used" Trip to Fanwood as our warm-up (get on the floor and stop talking)dance last night. We usually walk then gently dance if we feel up to it. Our dancers were very complimentary of the dance. I think that on bar 29 1st couple dance to 1st corners’ places, then all the ducks are in a row to dance back to proper sides.
Happy dancing,
