And off to Readers Found we go. Oh dear - and I'm just about to say that I'm really sorry but some huge real life has come up, and I just can't do any more recording at this time, and that I would have to pull out. And I can't even make the edits, because my computer broke a month ago and I don't h...

Here you go - I'm sure every other word is pronounced incorrectly. Feel free to tell me if there's some particularly glaring errors!

Stav's right, that all sounds fine. I'll take chapters 5, 6 and 7 instead, and we'll use Renata's chapter 4. I hadn't started recording, so it's all fine :) Renata, I listened to the first part of your recording - you have a very nice voice, and you read really well. It would be silly to waste that ...

Ooh, I love a good mystery - could I take 4,5 and 6 please?

You're welcome - it's a pleasure to read this book, especially when I'm feeling homesick for the moors

Here is chapter 3 - the other chapters should follow over the next couple of days, they've been recorded, I just need to edit them.

Thank you Stav - yes, I am british, is it that obvious? Although I've just moved to France for a while, so I suspect I'll lose some of my accent soon, and get a much nicer French one hopefully.

EDIT - Thanks, Christine, too. Sorry, I missed your post, I didn't mean to ignore you

Here's Chapter 3 http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/kb/storyofab_03_waterloo.mp3 05:40 Sorry it took a little while. I'm afraid you may still be able to hear the remnants of a cold in that recording, but my voice is at least understandable now, and b's and d's can be distinguished :P Ah well, ...

Here's chapter 4 - sorry it's taken so long!

Ah, yes, that one works!:D Thanks, I'll get right on with recording.

Sorry, Shirley! The link was broken, but it should be working fine now.

It still doesn't seem to be working - the other links are, it's just part 2.
Sorry for being awkward!

Hi, sorry for the delay in doing the recording - I was about to do it now when I found the link to the text was broken. I don't know if it's just tonight - I've looked at it before so it hasn't always been broken. I would have read from the main site, only I couldn't see where the text was on the si...

Ok, thanks Paul. I'll make sure I record it louder in future.

:D I suppose so - all the same I tried to say the American pronunciation of Lieutenant this time, just because it is a Western, afterall, and I feel I should make some sort of effort to make it semi-authentic... Anyway, here's chapter 3 - hope it's ok http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/kb/adau...

Should I attempt amplifying it and uploading it again? I'm a bit of a technophobe, but I may be able to work it out

Or I suppose I could try posting it on the "Listeners and Editors Wanted" board and ask someone clever to amplify it?

Or is it not too bad?
