Description

the briscoe website http://briscoes.mindspring.com/dances/dancename.htm is not functioning a number of Briscoe (Mel - Ellie and others )dances have other links I found 3 David Tague- dances in the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20040930134426/http://briscoes.home.mindspring.com/dances/MCLOUGHLIN.htm https://web.archive.org/web/20040924034055/http://briscoes.home.mindspring.com/dances/GlenFruin.htm https://web.archive.org/web/20050429181131/http://briscoes.home.mindspring.com/dances/whistler.htm

the Wes clindinning’s hornpipe - no new link found the one in DB was probably, being part of a ball program, more likely to be a crib than a complete dance description.

    Yes. The broken link in Spiffin' has been fixed.

  • a number of Briscoe (Mel - Ellie and others )dances have other links
    Yes. But all links are fine.

  • I found 3 David Tague- dances in the wayback machine: […]
    Yes. But all existing links for these three dances are fine because they provide access to the same documents.

  • the Wes clindinning’s hornpipe - no new link found the one in DB was probably, being part of a ball program, more likely to be a crib than a complete dance description.
    You are right. We do not need to look for any full instructions online any longer.

We are going to remove the broken links in the Extra Infos for The Belfast Hornpipe and <<ddd:Wes Clindinning’s Hornpipe>.

Thank you Wanda.

Best regards
Roland
