ENDING: The dance ends on count 24, instead of 1/4 sailor make a 1/2 sailor to end facing the front.
Notes: On Wall 9 the music goes slightly off phrase but I didn’t feel the need for a Restart so close to the end of the dance. Continue dancing, the steps STILL hit the music throughout, it is just on a different phrasing to the lyrics.
