Longways set, 3 couples.
Foot Up | Ch | Whole Hey | Ch | Rounds | Foot Up | Ch | Rounds on the Sides [ending with] All Up & Show.
Two hankies.
(A+B)x4+A.
Step-hop. Arms are up [theta = 45 deg, phi = ±45 deg]. Hankies rotate Lh cw & Rh acw [in a plane approx. horizontal but down a bit infront] moving forwards [an a bit down] on the step.
Takes half a bar so each verse has 16 basics.
Done in place facing up.
Top couple cast out down the outside of the set to bottom place and continue up to their own place. Every one else on a side of a set follows them round likewise. (‘Rounds on the Sides’ is only my guess at a name for this figure.)
(LFA + Lhop + RFA + Rhop in place with hands as in Basic [1 bar]) x 8.
The hands can go vertically up & down instead in the Basic (but not the chorus).
From an Ale.
