A six-couple variation:
A 32-bar jig for 6 couples in a set consisting of two subsets, one comprising
1s+2s+3s and the other comprising 4s+5s+6s on opposite sides.
In each subset, the end couples (1s & 6s) begin the dance, which then proceeds
exactly as in the 3-couple version until bar 31, when
31-32
2s+3s, 4s+5s set, while 1s+6s dance ½ RH across
Thus, in the next repetition, 6s become 3s (in top ‘set’) and 1s become 4s (in
bottom ‘set’).
Repeat the dance 2 more times (when all will have changed subsets) or 5 more
times (when all will be back in original places).
Devised for Mike’s wife, Norma.
