Author's Notes:
Requires a 2 part slip jig, like Boys of Ballisodare or Drops of Brandy.
Written for Russell Owen on the occasion of his 40th birthday.
Editor's Notes:
Forward and back can be challenging in slip jig time, as some dancers may take 4 steps and wrench their neighbors. I suggest teaching this as two steps forward and bring feet together, etc.
This dance is from American Country Dances On Line
