MelNet tune of the month April 2019

This was a regular with ceilidh bands I was in during the 1970s, and it was normally played 4 times, the last two being the variant I play 3rd time through. The key change from G to A at that point was also popular, though I'm not sure if every D/G melodeon player bothered with it as it's a good deal harder to play. I haven't played this, for a dance or otherwise, for decades!

The ABC codes below are:

1. From the Community Dance Manual, more or less as I play it
2. From Jack Campin's Nine Note Tunes collection, in D and with the commonly played variation.
