Waltz/Break
No Walkthrough
Was dealing with heat exhaustion and not really able to think clearly at this point. Walked through Petronella Stomp badly, couldn't get it, and defaulted to TTT since I knew I could get it done right.

Bob Fab notes: While it does not have waves at the sides, it has them in the middle so you can use it when the hall is too short for everyone to be in the same waves.
It is an excellent dance for incorporating a large group of beginners, because you hardly ever are without someone in your hand, and the storyline is nice.

In the A2, the roll away is with your new neighbor. In order to be on time, the roll away happens on the way back (the last 4 beats) of the long lines. Ladles roll the gentlespoons away in front from the right to the left, allowing for a smooth transition into the chain.

Julian Bee notes that swapping the promenade for a R+L Thru is Linda Leslie's "Old Time Elixir #2", written in 1998. It's unclear when Dean wrote TTT, so both deserve a cross-reference. https://contradb.com/dances/474
