So curious about where the name came from? In my experience, most Fairbridges and Fairbridge things are related to me (I have family records going WAY back)!
@@robertlockhart7027 thank you! The town of Fairbridge in Australia (and the one in Canada also) were indeed named for my grandfather's cousin: Kingsley Ogilvie Fairbridge (not to be confused with the many other family members who bear the name Kingsley, including my uncle, brother, and son; he's obviously haunting us 😅). I see the reel was named for the town! How cool.
Looks like the guy with the white shirt got a little ahead of himself at the end. He was supposed to set to his partner, then go out and around the set to form the small circle. Then of course, the large circle.
Michael, you may well be right: Good Timing is a joy to behold. But Alan, you have hit the nail on the head. Can't wait to resume SCD.
If this doesn't make you tap your toes nothin will.....
Ah , now we all make mistakes - the overriding importance is enjoyment of-the dancing
