Written in memory of Deborah Ainger who died in December 2021. Deborah, a keen dancer and a passionate activist, was never seen without a badge proudly proclaiming herself as an atheist. As a fellow non-believer I always liked to see her wearing this. She was one of those people who found it hard to distinguish right from left, so this dance tries to make all the directions and turning as obvious as possible.
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.
