I'm please to say that we finally cracked walk the dog tonight. The secret was to make it slower and simpler! Take a look at this video of silver flame doing it http://youtu.be/b41TzGOo9Sg. Here's the exact break down:

1st phrase) #1 turns out on beat 1, #2 turns out on beat 2, they walk round in a triangle, #1 comes back in on beat 7, #2 comes back in on beat 8

2nd phrase) #2 turns out on 1, #3 turns out on 2, they walk round in a triangle, #2 comes back in on beat 7, #3 comes back in on beat 8

3rd phrase) #3 turns out on beat 1, #4 turns out on beat 2, they walk round in a triangle, #3 comes back in on beat 7, #4 comes back in on beat 8

Everyone who was at the practice tonight managed to get through the figure so I'd like to dance it out on Thursday. I know Hannorah, Nic and Jo won't have done this although you've all tried the faster, more difficult version so I'm hoping, if we find a quiet spot to walk through the figure with you three (not sure if Nic and Jo are coming actually) it will be alright on the night.
