    Figure 8 in only 4 bars? I like the idea, but there would not be enough music.

    How about :
    17-24 : promenade fig 8
    25-28 : half diagonal reel 4
    29-32 : All turn pts

    Thanks, Martin, that's much better

    I got to the figure-of-eight idea in a series of stages (i.e. different ideas that did not work) and overlooked the timing when I fitted the promenade in.
