Hi Mo,
Yes, as with Petronella, the move used by contra dancers is very different
from the move in the dance Mad Robin!
Happy dancing,
John

I partly agree, having contorted my brain listening to a well known caller (“sh!”)
describe a move then realise that he was describing a ladies chain.
But I always wonder about mad Robin because that wasn’t how we did the move when I first
learned the dance. Colin, did you learn it sideways?
