The Happy Weasel - 8x32 bar Jig - has the lead tune Miss Hannah of Elgin by William Marshall. After a bit of a research I have found this Dance is also the lead tune for the Dance Sunnyside devised by John Drewry and recorded by Frank Thomson on the CD ‘9 at 90’ for the Aberdeen Branch RSCDS. The Dance is gaining popularity in Southern England. I don’t know if this information is already known to you but just in case I submit mit it for appraisal Kind regards Michael (Copeman) Ashdown SCDClub Crowborough, East Sussex
