“Wigilja Bożego Narodzenia” jest wydanym w roku 1909 polskim przekładem opowiadania Karola Dickensa “A Christmas Carol” napisanym przez niego w roku 1843. Opowiada historiȩ nocy wigilijnej, w której wielkiego skąpca i samotnika, Ebenezera Scrooge, odwiedza pokutujący duch jego zmarłego wspólnika, ostrzegając go, że jeżeli nie zmieni sposobu życia, bȩdzie tak jak i on błąkał siȩ po śmierci okuty łańcuchami swoich win. Zapowiada wizyty trzech innych widm które ukazują Scrooge’owi wizje nocy wigilijnych z przeszłości, teraźniejszości i przyszłości. Jest to noc wielkich objawień, które na zawsze przemienią życie Scrooge’a." (Summary by Nina Brown)

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Window now open. A few points
Please don't use any accents in the file name - they cause many problems - everywhere else is fine though.
You will need to have an introduction/summary by the time it is catalogued - in Polish.
The password you have as a DPL works here too so you can manage the MW - it is part of the Soloists job description but I will help you with any problems you have - just ask
And now the business is out of the way , have fun with your first Solo

warm regards

As soon as you have an MC (that's me ) you can start uploading . We usually wait a couple of days here one - to attract a DPL and two - because people like to see what is new and not everyone logs on every day.
So upload as soon as you wish - and it looks like you have a DPL too. I usually wait for the soloist to agree - but this time I will just add him
I don't know what the LV policy in such cases is, but since you're reading in Polish I'd suggest replacing links to the English-language Wikipedia with the Polish ones:
And I want to finish them quickly and be done with this project
Only because I splurged and bought Blue Yeti microphone. I tested it and it's fantastic, but the sound is different, and I don't want to have that change half way through the project. So I need to finish using the old microphone and quickly find something new!
very warm regards (40 degrees today and 41 for the rest of the week)
Nina
and quickly find something new!
