I wanted to add a response to the comment about the 2nd video for The Rutland Reel, added by Eric Ferguson on Oct. 16, 2016, 2:16 p.m.
‘RSCDS Sheffield, probably May 2015. The dancing in this big hall is quite good, but the music is played 10 x 32 instead of 8 x 40. Sounds awful, but the dancers seem not to notice’
The final part of the comment is a little unfair - we did notice the error in the number of bars played, but felt it was more important to carry on dancing rather than stop and look confused.

Fair remark, Kate. Thanks for explaining. I have changed the comment as follows; is that now fair?

Can we perhaps just get rid of the editorialising altogether? As far as I’m concerned, we can lose everything after “8×40” and avoid both value judgements and speculation on who noticed the wrong barring and who didn’t…

Good idea, Kate. I have removed all the text that expresses opinions or speculation. Fixed. Eric.
