Hi Melissa,

It's been quiet here for a while, so I just want to check we are all still here!

Claim 7 please.

Thanks, Erin, I will look after Book 1 when you have finished with 2 & 3. Oh, those Greek pronunciations! They catch me out every time. For Section 2, I already have two PL notes to self. Pronunciations of Eurydice (twice around 18:00) and equipage (around 26:00). https://librivox.org/uploads/annise...
