Thanks for the transcription catch, Michael. Next Robin should be across
and *Right.* Corrected transcription is below:
Half Day's Work
Becket, ccw/right progression, 1x
A1: Long Lines Forward and Back, Larks Allemande Left 1 1/2;
A2: Neighbors Balance and Swing;
B1: Long Lines Forward and Back, Next Robins (across the set and to right
of partner) Allemande Left 1 1/2 (to partner);
B2: Half Hey (PR, LL, N2R, RL), Partners swing.

I wrote this a week ago. It is a fairly simple
dance, and checking
Caller's Box and ContraDB did not find it. However, given the simplicity
of concept, I am surprised it has not been previously created.
Anyone else know of its prior existence? Perhaps recut from A2 - A1?
The closest thing I could find was "Sooner Slice":

Half Day's Work
Becket, cw/left progression, 1x
A1: Long Lines Forward and Back, Larks Allemande Left 1 1/2;
A2: Neighbors Balance and Swing;
B1: Long Lines Forward and Back, Next Robins (across the set and to left
of
partner) Allemande Left 1 1/2 (to partner);
B2: Half Hey (PR, LL, NR, RL), Partners swing.
The net effect of A1 through the first half of B1 is Larks trade.
At that point, if the Robins look across and left, that's their original
neighbor Robin, not a new one.
Is there supposed to be a roll away after the B1 forward+back? That would
get the next Robin in the desired position.
