As Bob noted, the first dance is Missing Duck. A note on the figures:

Missing Duck, becket

Erik Hoffman

A1: circle L 3/4 and pass through

       new ladies alle. L 1/2, partner alle. R 3/4 to long wave (Wm facing in)

A2: Rory O'Moore

B1: ladies start full hey by L shoulder

Actually, the first pass is Partner by the right. At the end of the Rory O’More balances, I like it if you take your partner’s hand, and launch your partner into the hey:

  Women get launched to the center to pass left

  Men get launched out to loop right

B2: partner b&s

Maia:

The first dance is Missing Duck by Erik Hoffman.

The Country Doctor's Reel goes:

A1.         4,4          Neighbor balance, turn to R

                4,4          Neighbor balance, turn to R

A2.         4,4          Neighbor balance, turn to R

                4,4          Neighbor balance, box the gnat

B1.          4,4          Neighbor pull by R, ladies pull by L

                8              Partner swing

B2.          8              Long lines forward and back

                8              Ladies chain to neighbor

In A1/A2 neighbors take R hands, balance, and do a Petronella turn ¼ to the R.  After three such balances the ladies are back to back facing out.

Was going through an old notebook and found the following scribblings. Can anyone help identify them, or put choreography to the name?

Many thanks,
