While at summer school having just been on the cruise getting completely used to the constant hand sanitising, I was realising what a hot bed scottish dancing is for spreading germs!  It got me thinking (during one of the morning classes when I should have been concentrating, but enjoying the mind wandering a lot more, and then consequently messing up!) whether there were any dances where none of the formations involve holding hands.  So then I decided to try make one up.  I sat on the floor in my room with coins.  And then later a friend gave me some help and advice - much more fun with two!  And this is the dance we came up with.  We tried it out on the final morning and had to make a slight variation.  I really quite like it I think, though it you were really dancing it, there would only be 2 bars where you're not dancing!  The 'under arrest' name is due to the fact you could dance it wearing handcuffs!
