Hi Mike ..... yep - I think these two bars are two of the trickiest in the piece.
Do you find the suggested fingering helps or not ?? There could be alternatives - the fingering in the books tends ( I think) to be designed so that smaller hands can manage it.

You might try practising the RH part with uneven notes (like dotted quaver - semiquaver but not too fast yet), then swap round so that the dotted notes become the shorter ones and the others get the dots - if you see what I mean

Hi Maggiemay
Thanks for tips especially the change of lengthsof notes etc...
The different fingering would work as a solution I think to possibly make it easier..However having practised so long the suggested way I don't want to change as I have almost cracked it.
TThanks for the help again..
