A1:  All face neighbor and put the hand near partner in for a hands-across star.
     (This means first corners (W) are left hand, second corners (M) are 
     right hand.)

1-4: Men go forward, women back, turning the star once round.

5-6: With the one you're facing (opposite sex neighbor), right-shoulder 
     Hole-in-the-Wall cross (on the line) to change places; 
7-8: right shoulder turn single and a bit to finish facing partner.

A2:  Facing partner, put in the same hand as before.

1-4: Women go forward, men go back, turning the star once round.

5-6: With the one you're facing (partner), leftt shoulder hole-in-the-wall
     cross; 
7-8: left shoulder turn single, finish taking two hands with partner.

[All progressed; 1s proper, 2s improper.]

B1:  1-4: CCW Women draw  half draw poussette to get everyone home, 
          blending into
     5-8: "sliding doors": simultaneous "Mad Robin" figure, with the 
           women going outside first and the men going inside first.
          (That's walk the track of a left shoulder gypsy with neighbor,
           but keep your eyes on your partner.)

B2: 1-4: CCW (women back, men forward) half _regular_ poussette to
         get everyone progressed and in original degree of properness.
    5-8: Partners (still holding two hands) balance forward and back, 
         then let go man's left, woman's right, and turn the woman in place
         under man's right and finish facing next neighbor, ready to bring 
         joined hands forward into the next star.

(Note: 5-8 was originally "two hands once round, open up facing next couple.")
