Crib posted by Brian Charlton, of Sydney, Australia, 000621, saying. ‘I have never seen the original instructions. The dance has connections with Sydney Branch because the Danish Consul and his wife started SCD with the Sydney Scottish Country Dance Circle and started(?) SCD in Copenhagen when they returned home. The Scottish Country Dance Circle was the foundation for the Sydney Branch, so that must have been before 1952. Capt. Bain was, I believe, a member of the Edinburgh Demonstration Team.’
