CHANGE + ENDING
End of Wall 8 (facing 6:00) The Elgins finish the song by repeating the chorus twice.
Therefore, rather than starting wall 9 from the top (facing 6:00) you finish your dance by doing counts 17-32 twice.
However, the second time you repeat counts 17-32 you change the bounce ½ turn to a bounce full turn to finish at 12:00 (you will end with R hooked over L)

Note: To make the transition from count 32 to count 17 easier: finish off the bounces during wall 8 and 9 stepping R to right on count 32 - 12:00
