Tag: On walls 1 & 4, dance up to count 44 (**), add the following 4 counts, then finish off

Restart: On the 3rd wall, dance up to count 15, step LEFT together (count 16) &
-------       restart the dance.


Note - the original sheet counts the restart as a tag so you would dance wall 1, tag 1, wall 2,
tag 2, wall 3, tag 1, etc. I have renumbered the walls above to be consistent with the more
widely accepted practice of counting the restart wall a distinct wall.
