8
partners swing
B2 8
gentlespoons chain pull by left
8
gentlespoons start a half hey - lefts in center, rights on ends to new neighbors

B1 half hey is a broken hey - for the ladles it's a half hey but the gentlespoons never cross. When the gentlespoons meet in the center the first time, they allemande left once around back to their partner.
