This was written for my son Scott and is probably the favourite of my compositions. It is one of these
tunes which have something about them which always seems to get the Country Dancers "going". I first
recorded this as the original for John Drewry's "Crossing the Line" on one of the Highlander CD's.
Alice McLean used the tune as the original tune for a dance included in her "Laurieston Collection"
which she wrote for Scott after he had been asked to dance for the Queen at a special function in
Edinburgh City Chambers to celebrate 75 years of the RSCDS.
