“Dedicated to Jane Purves.”

The author writes: Please note there is a mistake in Orwell Lodge Strathspey as published in the Jubilee book. On bar 16 there is no right shoulder pass - first couple just finish the second half reel on the sidelines. See http://scottishdance.net/dances/Book/OrwellLodgeStrathspey.pdf (This is Ian’s site.).

Note (additional to the book and the Manual). collected by Helen Russell from staff teaching The Diamond Jubilee book at Summer School 2012.

13 -16 1st couple dance a half reel of four with second corners and finish all on opposite sides in the order 3,1,2. 1.st couple do not pass by the right as stated in the original instructions.

27 -28 2nd couple must turn once round in two bars.
