Alan, Since the move called Mad Robin has been mentioned so often, I hope you consider calling the eponymous English dance (billed as such, of course, don't want to cause riots). Easy enough for dedicated contra dancers but different enough (proper, and with 2-hand turns instead of swings) to offer variety. And if people want to substitute swings, they may. And how they end that swing can offer some other interesting variations.
Frankly, I find that an occasional two-hand turn in a contra offers plenty of potential for flirtation (with room for it to remain merely friendly). --Jerome -- Jerome Grisanti 660-528-0858 http://www.jeromegrisanti.com For the good are always the merry, Save by an evil chance, And the merry love the fiddle And the merry love to dance. ~ William Butler Yeats
