Tune Title Needed

Tune Title Needed

I heard this air played at a session recently. I'm fairly sure that it's quite well-known (except to me of course!)

Can anyone give me the title of it please? ...

(I only half-remembered part of the tune, so my abc may not be so hot. Should be good enough to identify it though ...

X:1
T:Air
M:3/4
L: 1/8
K:A
V:1

I was going to say that it seems to be one of the variations of 'Tweedside' - Free Reed's link is one of them.

Thank you Free Reed - that's the one!

You confirm that my abc in this instance was not so hot - but nonetheless good enough to identify it! :-)

.. and thanks for your additional info, Weejie.

You are welcome, Mix. I've added a wee bit of info in the tune section along with the earliest known version of the tune:
