Dave,

I miscalculated the number of sections I'd need -- can you kill Sections 17 and 18?

Sorry. Thanks -- Kirsten

Sections 3, 4, 7

NOTE:

When I posted chapter one -- sections 1 and 2 -- I mistakenly put them in the MW slot for sections 2 and. Wanting to load sections 3 and 4 I noticed the mistake. Therefore I posted sections 1 and 2 in their right places, changed labels to PL OK, and then loaded sections 3 and 4. Confusing. Sorry.

PL OK through section 10. Nice opera singing, by the way.

Section 16:

20:37 - repeat: "before us, the historic, the historic d'montinie (or however it's spelled) topaz"

Tricia, Section sixteen is ready for spot PL.
I thin we can assume the sections are all ready to go.

I will take a look at summaries and such to see what else I must add, adn do so accordingly.

Oops. You cut off too much. The sentence is below. The bolded portion is missing:

Here we have before us the historic de Montigny topaz.

Book summary updated on Project Screen page.

Argh. I'll go back and fix it.. sorry

Kirsten Wever · Post by **Kirsten Wever** » October 16th, 2021, 8:58 pm

Sorry for the delay...

Section 16, including -- at 20.37 -- "Here we have the historic de Montigny topaz -- ask your little boy about it."

Ready for Spot PL.

Tell me what else I should do?

Me again

There remains one essay collection of Milne's I haven't recorded (there is a group recording) -- HAPPY DAYS.

ODDLY, this collection contains many pieces ALSO printed in one of the other five collections (which we just did).
AS WELL AS some (about 1/3) that are new to me. (I can't figure out if they're in print elsewhere.)

This short collection (78 pages, as opposed to 340 pp. in "If I "May") would be quick, and would complete the LV oevre of his collected straight-humor pieces. (Excluding plays, pieces explicitly for children, more serious essays...)

Possible names:
Little-Known Essays and Short Plays by A A Milne
SOME RARE HUMOR, by A A Milne
SOME LITTLE-KNOWN HUMOR by AA Milne

What think you? More to the point -- wanna pick up our familiar roles?

I'll send this is PMs also.

Hi people,

Seems like something is postponing finishing this project off.

Have I missed something? Section 16 - the one remaining PL issue - has been ready for spot PL for a while.

Please let me know what I need to do

Also, I've decided not to record the Milne Pieces from Happy Days that I asked about.

Don't know what next or when, but I'll let you know, as you may guess...

Kirsten

I somehow missed the post about it, and the project fell off my radar.

It's spot PL OK; this is ready for cataloging!

Post by **craigdav1** » October 23rd, 2021, 7:05 am

It's off to cataloging then.
