 +This dance has a nice flow if the dancers can get the circles and hand
 +change to line up with the music. The turn and go round neighbour/​partner
 +is very natural and simple once the pattern is understood, but the instructions at 
 +first may seem confusing. ​ It may help to slow the music a few
 +percent to avoid the movements being rushed, but the dance is nonetheless
 +quite lively. ​ --- //​[[nashjc]] 2016/12/05 14:15//
  
 +**The Tatler** ​ is the name of a London newspaper (published three days a week) that was first published in 1709 by Richard Steele, using the pen-name "Isaac Bickerstaff,​ Esquire"​. The aim of the periodical was to print news and gossip that filtered through London'​s coffeehouses. It was a successful venture that lasted for two years before Steele moved on to other publishing projects, and it was imitated by others; Edinburgh had its Tatler, for example.
