'StateBlock' object has no attribute 'is_code_block'
From the book: The dance was devised by Isla Henderson (nee Macleod) and the music is by her father. Isla spent many of her formative years in Skye and is now a teacher of Scottish country dancing in Inverness. She returns frequently to Skye to dance and husband David to hillwalk.
This dance is a nice opener for any programme and indeed for this book.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (4). 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.
