What we would have been doing but for Covid-19
We don’t know when we can resume our beloved Scottish country dancing; nor do we know when/if this programme will be used.
However, Pat has given us a fine programme, with fun dances. The cribs have video links for all but 2 dances. Enjoy, if only in your imagination.
