Bidborough Ridge has great views and a bracing breeze which give one a good feeling. Hopefully so will this lively dance matched to a foot –tapping set of tunes   

Explanation of the figure "R&L for 5 dancers".   The corners dance a standard R&L figure, but  the centre dancer dances out on a diagonal, links up with a crossing  pair of dancers to dance a half Tpot with them and finish outside the set. He or she then dances back across the set  in parallel with this pair to repeat the half Tpot with them on the opposite side of the set., again finishing outside the set. Note that if asked to join in on the first 2 bars of the figure, the centre dancer can dance back into the centre on bars 7&8.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (?). 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.
