Here's another contribution to the Dublin Bay collection, hopefully fulfilling the criteria below:

Liffey Outflow

Becket formation

32 bar reels

Keith Wood Jan 2017

Following online discussions about the Dublin Bay movement I decided to create a dance that incorporated it.

1-4 Gypsy opposite
5-8 1st man and 2nd woman (at the bottom of each minor set) back-to-back and finish facing down, while the others cross (right shoulder) and move to the end of a line of four facing down, men on one side, women on the other
9-12 Dublin Bay: lines of four back up (up the hall) and then come forward, turning individually half-way (toward same-sex neighbour) at the last moment to face up
13-16 Lines of four back up (down the hall) and then come forward, turning individually to face same-sex neighbour at the last moment
17-22 3/4 hey for four passing same-sex neighbour right-shoulder to start (until meeting your partner the second time)
23-24 Circle left half-way (men together and women together)
25-28 Swing partner
29-32 Slice left: advance towards the couple on your left diagonal, then retire straight back from them (progression); spare couples wheel onto the opposite side
Cheers

I'd love to see more Dublin Bay dances that aren't all glossary moves surrounding the down-hall move.

...

So. What else we got? :)
