The Aulde Alliance!

A troupe of Scottish dancers.... from Bristol no less.... entertaining the French with an array of Scottish dancing and medleys....
Their piper is the one who in his non-holiday job... plays the pipes from the battlements of Edinburgh Castle at the start of the Royal Tournament.
This troupe also taught some simple dances to the French attendees... this was easier said than done.... rural France knows only one dance style these days.... American Line Dance!!
However, this area is now benefitting from a professional fiddle player and his wife, who is an accomplished caller... and can call the steps in French. Things are looking up.....
