Bars 1-8 | Men join hands and take 16 slip steps round the Ladies. 1st man is train driver! |
Bars 9-16 | Ladies join hands and take 16 slip steps round the men. 1st lady is driver. |
Bars 17-24 | Top Couple hold hands and take 8 big slip steps down the centre. Come back up with only 8 small steps joining the bottom of their own set |
Bars 25-32 | Everyone holds hands and slip steps (8) down the centre and back |
This works best later in the evening when inhibitions have gone! All must make as much noise as possible (as per a train) when doing the train bit!
As a variation second time through men go behind 1st lady, in front of 2nd, behind 3rd etc to 'put some bends in the track'!
