I'm sorry about the long wait; I just finished another short solo.

Just one PL note on Section 25:
~01:55 (repet.) The bit "just beneath a sewer" can be heard twice.Other than that, everything's fine.

(Your last project is on my to-listen list. I enjoy reading about the medicinal uses of plants.)

[Peter Why]

Thanks, Jasna; I've uploaded the corrected file. My apologies for the delay, I've been away for a long weekend.

Yes, the cannabis paper was interesting, and comfortably written, too.

Peter

[Dulcamara]

Thanks.

I can hear some very occasional clicks. I can't see them on the Audacity sonograph, but I've rerecorded to eliminate most of them. Do tell me if you find any that are obtrusive.

I'm going to put a query about them in the Help Wanted forum some time, in case they're early signs of microphone failure.

Section 26 (Text section 25) is PL OK.

I didn't hear anything that could be distracting.

Jasna

[Peter Why]

Thanks, Jasna; I've found that the clicks were due to problems with a USB port. Easily fixed.

Peter

[Dulcamara]

Glad to hear that!

Here's section 27 (text section 26)

With a singularly unpleasant picture in the footnote at the end.

EDIT: Jasna, I forgot to increase the tempo, so I've re-uploaded. The file is now 31.11. No need to listen again if you've downloaded the first version.

Jasna,

I've been getting the blue screen of death quite frequently lately, probably because Windows is failing to update successfully. Today, after another blue screen, I received the message "no operating system". I'm typing this from an old back-up computer, but will try to get my main one fixed. Obviously, all my files are on the inactive machine, so it may be some time before I get going again.

Peter

[Dulcamara]

Peter,

Sorry to hear about your computer. I hope you can get back to recording soon.

Section 27 (text section 26) is PL OK.

Jasna

[Peter Why]

Thanks, Jasna. I'm getting a new computer ... it should be completely silent, as the only hard drives it will use will be external.

But the old computer I'm using now has fans, so I won't be recording againfor at least a week.

Peter
