Key A, meter; 4/4 Longways Duple Here is a variation on Elverton Grove that seems to work and is not as hectic as the Cook version. A1 (same as before) All turn single and set (or balance fwd & back); cross over with partner and turn left to face A2 Repeat to places B1 1-8 (same as before) Men lead thru ladies; ladies lead thru men "The variation" 9-12 1st couple half fig 8 thru the 2's 13-14 All set once to partners (at this point the music is going "ta taa, ta taa") 15-18 2nd couple 1/2 fig up thru the 1's 19-22 1st couple cast off & cross as 2nd couple moves up crossing This version is based on another alternate version by John Millar. His version has the 1st couple complete a full fig 8 after the "all set" in bars 13-14 and then the 1's cast off as the 2's move up. (I liked the idea of giving the 2's something more to do since, after teaching a dance, I often find myself joining in at the bottom of the set.) Lou Vosteen
