 This crib has been produced quickly and easily, using - MINICRIB - Compiled by Charles Upton, Deeside Caledonian Society,  Wirral.  UK.

This is available on the website www.minicrib.care4free.net   You could easily produce your own cribs for any dance that you attend by following the instructions. The cribs can then be printed using a text size that you find convenient.

  Here are some descriptive notes from the website:

MINICRIB is a simple database of brief notes covering  over  2000 Scottish Country Dances which enables "cribsheets" to be quickly produced for most dance programs.  These Sheets will refresh your memory immediately before each dance. 

  The notes are contained in a Microsoft "Word" template which is placed in the Template folder.  After opening "WORD" simply select File/New/Minicrib & the notes are easily accessed by use of the AutoText function.  If you enable the macros included in the template, there will be short cuts to help speed the preparation of the "cribsheet".

  All files are zipped with Windows software & Mac users will not be able to un-zip them but Mac computers running "Word 98" can use the Word 97/98 Document version when un-zipped.   If Word 98 is not available you may be able to read "Word" documents.

 Although these notes are copyright there is no claim to the copyright of any dance as each dance is already the copyright of another.  It is hoped that the many devisers of the dances listed, will not be offended by the brevity of the notes but will appreciate the usefulness of the notes as a dancing aid. 

 If you require more information about the Deviser, Publication or available Recordings of any dance the Alan Patterson's database at www.scottap.com/dancedata/ will be of assistance.

 The notes are available FREE but in return please leave the MINICRIB footnote that appears on each sheet! i.e.

 It is hoped that Scottish Country dancers everywhere will find the notes of great use, please let me know.  Happy dancing to all!
