Hi

At last I am back on track - new computer, chapters re-recorded - and thanks to my eldest son, most of my files recovered!

I have lost my Audacity and MP3 files, and my headcam video of my holiday, but it could be much worse - and I have my photos back!

Here is Chapter XXXIII :

31:14.5.

Enjoy!

Regards

A new computer! That was a nasty virus! It's good to have you back. Chapter 33 is marked PL OK. I really chuckled through most of that one!

Hi

Yes, it was a nasty virus - but my computer was no longer in the first flush of youth (9 or 10 years old) and bits of the hardware were stopping functioning, so a new computer seemed the safest solution.

Here is chapter 34:

If I don't manage to post again before the weekend, have a very happy Easter.

Happy Easter to you and your family!

Chapter 34 is PL OK and a treat as always.

Hi

I'm sorry it has taken me so long to do the next chapter - I have had problems with the microphone set up and had to record chapter 35 4 times before I got it sorted - but at last it seems ok.

Here is Chapter XXXV:

We are gradually putting our American holiday together - it should be some time in September.

Hope all is well with you

Regards

I hope you have a lovely weekend, and that these two chapters give you some relaxation.

Thanks for my favorite Friday evening treat, Nick! Chapters 35 and 36 are PL OK.

Really looking forward to meeting you both in September. Hope it all works out!

Nick,

Just a thought as I'm looking at your chapter titles in the MW. I'm not sure you need to start them with the roman numerals. They will have an arabic number affixed automatically, so they will become "13 - XIII The Rubbish Cart". Since they stay in sync throughout (no chapter is split into multiple sections), I'm not sure the roman numerals add much. Up to you whether to keep them or not, just thought I would flag it now so that it turns out how you want it at cataloging.

Hi Maryann,

That makes sense.

Do you want me to amend all the titles? Presumably that won't happen automatically>

Nick,

No, nothing automatic there. :( You can change them whenever you get a chance.

Chapters 37 and 38 sound great, and I've marked them PL OK.

Hi Arlene

I'm afraid there will be a delay before I upload the next chapter, as we are off to Sardinia tomorrow morning, for a fortnight, dinghy sailing.

I was hoping to complete another chapter this week, but I have struck another (new)problem with my recordings, which I have yet to work out how to resolve.

Hope all goes well with you in the meantime.

All the best

Nick
