Заметки
This dance is for Daniel Capron with many thanks for starting the Gay Gordons group in London in October 2005 and for encouraging me to go along to the first class.
This has led me to an enduring love of Scottish Country Dancing.
My involvement in dancing, teaching, devising dances and helping to maintain the Strathspey Database (SCDDB) is ultimately all thanks to Daniel.
Daniel liked dances which have symmetry, such as Mairi’s Wedding, and the subtitle reflects his own two weddings to other men.
Daniel was very pleased that recent RSCDS guidelines now acknowledge that dancers may like to dance with anyone on either side of the set.
I wrote this dance when I learned that Daniel had terminal cancer.
He was able to see the video which was filmed soon afterwards but sadly died a few weeks later in May 2025.
Ian Robertson subsequently composed an
original tune
for the dance - though the video used
8 x 40 Reels

Waverley Station: First Stop!
