Danceboy’s Scottish Country Dance Journal.
Official Website Created Nov 2018.
This developing website journal will support the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society in
its efforts to promote Scottish Country Dancing in the UK and throughout the world!
The basic aims of the journal are:-
- 1. to support the RSCDS in the promotion of Scottish Country Dancing at home and abroad.
- 2. to provide access to other websites of interest at home and abroad.
- 3. to make available copies of my own crib sheets and link to other Graphic & MiniCrib crib sheets on other websites.
- 4. to stimulate an interest in the young and not so young in the practice of country dancing.
Fast access to the Mickel, Martice, Pitlochry and Red Deer websites are provided.
This new site evolved from the ex-
Club’s proud history by providing an account of its history and providing access to its photograph Gallery.

Notes:-
1. Good first night at Pitlochry with Frank Thomson’s Band. A hot night in the Town Hall with 5 sets of knowledgeable dancers! Three visitors from Canada enjoyed us enjoying ourselves and said they would ‘look into’ scottish country dancing in Vancouver! Next visit perhaps they’ll join us!
2. A very successful Dunfermline Summer Ball was enjoyed on Fri 2/6/23 in The Glen Pavilion in Pittencrieff Park with a welcome return of Frank Thomson and his band! The meal and the catering were excellent, all dances briefly called no dances omitted from the programme! Well done to the committee -
3. Dunfermline Branch has published its three Summer Dance programmes, a Summer Ball in memory of Janette MacSporran (crib available) and announced the welcome return of the Dunfermline Picnic Dance on 28/6/23!!
