I love the way the Hey is described in the dance
below. As a caller that is new to contra, the notation helps to understand the flow a
little better.
Thanks,

B1. Hey (LR, NL, GR, PL)
When I first looked at
this, I had to get away from "Left Right" to
"Ladies Right." I'd write: (WR, NL, MR, PL). Then looking at this, one
need note this is a half-hey. I suppose the person jotting this down
knows that, but for the rest of us, adding a X2 could help. Then to be
explicit, one has to leave out the last PL. Thus to be totally accurate
it's:
(WR, NL, MR, PL, WR, NL, MR)
Which is common, and only 7/8ths of a full hey...
