Ummm. Our local song circle goes around in either direction. Direction is set by the first three people who show up that evening. Not often do we get a clumping problem as we have a fair mixture of abilities so those with greater repertoire tend to shift what they intended to sing to something that might breakup a dirgish trend or a too comic bent. There are those who feel that one sad song ruins the whole evening but they aren't any friends of mine so I don't care about what they think.

Widdershins now. Does taht mean that if you are facing suth you go against the sun by heading west and south or, if you're facing north, you go against the sun by heading west and north?
