Hey all,
As I was researching a response to Amy's (Wimmer) Rompin' Stompin'
question, I happened across dances transcribed/written by Chris Page (I
note Chris has slso responded Amy's thread) and renewed acquaintance with
the gentlespoons/ladles terms.
E.g.
https://contradb.com/dances/1372
Does anyone use those terms while calling?
I've not yet returned to contra (pandemic) so haven't yet faced adapting to
the rising avian terminology, but Chris's terms, while a little humourous
to my mind, seem quite logical. (I suppose there is the risk that
gentlespoons is, necessarily, abbreviated to... you know).
No, I'm start trying to start a movement! :) I'm just curious.
