CALEDONIAN AROUND THE HOUSE SET
	© 2008   Larry E. Taylor
	This set, also known as the SEAN NOS CALEDONIAN, is from County Clare, Ireland.
	All dance — All couples dance except when standing during the introduction of each figure.
	See LONG CALEDONIAN.
	Gents dance forward on the left foot and ladies begin forward on the right foot.
	Steps — The ordinary reel and hornpipe steps are traditionally danced (step, step, 345
	when advancing and retiring and lift-2-3-4 otherwise).  The batter step (variations
	of heel-toe, heel-toe-down, etc.) is often danced also.  Either an ordinary jig step
	(down-2-3)  or   the reel step above is traditionally danced for Figure 5.
	Bar counts for dance patterns are shown in bold.
	The total bar count for each Figure includes an eight-bar introduction of music.
	Documentation is based upon a workshop taught by John Fennell at Labasheeda,
	Ireland in September 1999.
