I've gone a bit out of order, here, as I got bored with so many tables, and haven't worked out exactly how to do Section 42 (p219's table) yet.

Section 36 has 2 PL Notes:

repeat at 25:44 of "one and a...one and a"
repeat at 27:23 of "with Mr. MiTart...MiTart"

Did you ever think you'd get to read such exciting text as the amount of excrement from a horse in a 24 hour period? I certainly never thought I'd listen to something of that nature! LOL

ETA: Section 37 is PL OK!

I know! It's such a labour of love. He's gone into minute detail you wouldn't normally think about! It's also deeply heart-breaking to find out so many people were living off other people's thrown away dirty crusts that they had to steep to soften enough to chew.


Thanks for ploughing through it. :thumbs:
