"Devised for Andy and Gillean Lippok.
Andy and Gillean, keen members of St John's Scottish Dancing Club, Wokingham, moved to Dublin in the summer of 1996, hence the Celtic Crossing. Andy was chairman of the club in 1996.
What can I say about the lovely Gillean - she hails from Inverness, and lets me know if she approves of my dances! Mary Sutherland thought up the appropriate name."

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (5).

Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
