 Geesh that many years ago - I don't know if I still have my notes.  I 
may have passed it on with the other dance stuff when the next 
Dance Mistress took over.  I'll look through my files - it may take 
me a few days.

As I recall there was no step pattern to it - you just have a leader 
who knows it, as you put it.  We used to use it at demos - just make 
sure the first 4-5 people are well acquainted with it, then the rest of 
the line(s) can be other SCAers mixed with the public.  And it 
doesn't really need to be called, since it's basically follow the 
leader.
