I am wondering if you could clear up a discrepancy in the Glens of Angus  book 23. In the book it states that the last 4 bars " all cross to own sides and set."  I was informed last night that this has been changed to set and cross. If this is the case then surely it should be in the Manual and all teachers informed of any changes. Hope you can confirm this for me.

Answer: The original edition of book 23 (1967) does indeed describe bars 29-32 of The Glens of Angus as "Giving right hands to partners, all cross to own sides and set".  However, in the later (1968) Pocket Edition, the same four bars are given as "Set and cross over".  It is usual for the most recently published instructions to be taken as the current version.  There was a note in the original Manual (1992), but this was not carried forward into the 2005 Manual.
