I greatly liked the Herald’s tone you assumed in proclaiming the old texts, like for example: “Ringing the Bells for Norwich a Port. 10/6." Makes the whole listening more vivid. :thumbs: I felt that it helped to emphasise some of the text. Or to wake the listener up - if they'd just "drop...

Hi Sonia Thank you for PLing 3. Section 4 now uploaded. I pitied the town of Aldeburg, which received such a harsh verdict from our author. The tourist numbers probably declined for that town after the guide was published It would seem that any adverse effect that this guide book had was short-lived...

Hi Sonia Thanks for PLing section 2. Section 3 now uploaded. >I knew the legend of Saint Edmund quite well ... Did you know that St Edmund was reputedly killed at Hoxne (pronounced Hox–en) in North Suffolk and his body was eventually taken to Bury (later called Bury St. Edmunds)? http://www.theaa.co...

Section 0 & Section 1 re-uploaded - Ready for spot PL - Run time in MW corrected as required. > I suppose you don't want a word-perfect correction, so I will leave out any insignificant tiny errors you might make along the way. That will be fine if you do that. Highlight those that you consider ...

I listened to a bit of the introduction and ind it delightful and beautifully read. Great audio tracks too for a cursory check. Gonna be cool motoring through the countryside with him as a reader.... :D Thanks for that Phil - Feel free to hop onto a spare seat anytime you have a few minutes to spar...

I am tempted to offer to be DPL for this project. I myself have done East Anglia by car some years ago and still have fond memories. Would be interesting to hear about the highlights of the area some 100 years ago. :) Sonia Welcome aboard Sonia - you're most welcome to come along for the trip. Lots...

I put the author into the database. http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/mgpropeller.gif James Edward Vincent is now in there. Ah! I see what you've done there. You've overdone the old mug of Gumbo again!! What we need to do, is to ease this James Edward Vincent fella out of the database right qu...

EDIT: Have you maintained the magic window before?

How do you mean, Phil?

I've usually edited just the Title / Notes / Listen URL / Status columns.

Also, I think that you will have to update the reader column with my user name - I don't have access to that part.

I will set this up for you in a few minutes. Looks like an interesting read. :thumbs: Thanks for picking this one up Phil. :) I encountered a real problem when filling in the template, in that whenever I put in 'J.E. Vincent' it kept defaulting to 'Harl Vincent'. I guess that Harl Vincent is alread...

Note: There is a section covering Practical Observations applicable to each chapter at the beginning of the book. I intend to record each of these at the beginning of the initial file (Part 1) for each main chapter. Abbreviations given in Practical Observations will not be included.

If that is OK?
