There are two-person Rory O'Moore figures in here, if not taught yet do that--pairing gentlespoons with gentlespoons and ladles with ladles--before getting into the choreography.
| A1 | 8 | star left 3 places to find new neighbors ⁋
|
| 8 | circle left 3 places to be on same side as partner
| |
| A2 | 16 | partners balance & swing
|
| B1 | 8 | Gentlespoons left hand balance together and apart,
|
| 8 | neighbors swing
| |
| B2 | 8 | long lines forward & back
|
| 8 | Ladles right hand balance together and apart,
|
When the gentlespoons spin into one another's spots, neighbors can try to catch each other for the swing.
A slightly more flowy--and harder for new folk--dance is the Spicy variation of this.

Dancers should already know Rory O'Moore. There are two-person, same-role, diagonal Rory's O'Moore in this dance. The medium spicy version of this dance may be accessible to newer dancers.
Recommended BPM is ~115

^ R hand balance so spin is appropriate for the following swing. Neighbors can try to catch each other for the swing.
++ Gentlespoons catch Ladle's left hand after that spin, if they can
