For Bill Forbes on the occasion of his 90th birthday.
"That's all you're getting!" is one of Bill's stock expressions. When teaching at St. John's SCDC, Bill might occasionally say this immediately after a quick walkthrough or recap, at which point he would expect everyone to just dance the dance. It certainly encourages us to learn quickly, and proves to us (on most occasions) that we are able to just dance it.
Recommended tune: The Braes of Enzie by Alister Forbes. Recorded music: Selection of Strathspeys found on CD Scottish Dance Country by Bobby Brown. Note the order of words ‘Scottish Dance Country’ is as written in dance instructions.
