Inscribed "A tribute to my wife, Sylvia, for her birthday."

The instructions say this is a "8 x 32 bar strathspey for 3 couples", but only 1c+2c take part in the dance.  It is therefore entered in this database to be a 2C/4L dance.  The video is also danced as 2C/4L

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
