Hey all, not many correction wishes for book 1. The biggest one is that the numbering of the dances is completely messed up. The correct numbering and order is:
- Bliadhna Mhath Ur
- Calum Cam-Chosach
- Dalry
- De’el’s Awa’ Wi’ The Exciseman, The
- Haunting of Bisham Abbey, The
- Mairi Carron
- Kate Kennedy
- Martlets Reel
- O’ Wha’s at the Window
- Rose, The
- Huntie Gowk
- Old Chain Pier, The
- Lodge Hill
- Be Traist
- Guinea Pigs Jig, The
- Wallace’s Revolution
- Oidhche Chaluinn
Two corrections in dance names would be:
N5: The Haunting of Bisham Abbey -> no capital O plz N9: O’ Wha’s at the Window -> “at the” with no capital first letters plz
Open for discussions, and if you think you don’t want to extend the following names, but three dances come with “translations”: N1: Bliadhna Mhath Ur (A Happy New Year) N11: Huntie Gowk (April fool) N17: Bliadhna Mhath Ur (New Year’s Eve)
Cheers, Viktor

I have made the two proposed spelling corrections.
I have added the translated names for dances 1 and 11 into their extra Infos. For dance 17 the name to be translated differs, so I added nothing.
The order of the dances is far from “completely messed up”. The only change proposed by Viktor seems to be that Martlets Reel should move from position 3 to position 8. Assuming a miscommunication somewhere, I have made no change.
Do we add the translations to the dance name itself? Discussion needed. Eric

Martlets Reel is indeed on page 17 (not 7), putting it in position 8. Fixed
