'As Easy as ABC' can be found on this link. It is the first story in a collection of Kipling's work called 'A Diversity of Creatures'.

“What ho!" I said.
"What ho!" said Motty.
"What ho! What ho!"
"What ho! What ho! What ho!"
After that it seemed rather difficult to go on with the conversation.”

The stories wind up in alphabetical order so it won't have 'With the Night Mail' first.
I will PL it soon.
Thank you!

No. I just meant ahead of the other story I was intending to record.

But, that's fine,

Hi Adrian,
'With the Night Mail' is PL OK. :thumbs: The file name should be different. It needs the ssf055 at the beginning so ssf055_withthenightmail_kipling_as_128kb. I will change it when it is time to catalog since there are no other updates needed. Please use that file naming convention for any new ones.
It is hard to believe we don't have all of Kipling in the catalog yet.
Thanks for your story!
Amy

Here is Rudyard Kipling's companion piece to 'On the Night Mail', 'As Easy as ABC'.

I don't think either have been recorded before, and I can see why. Hard work - but satisfying now they're done!

Oh....I'm so sorry. I didn't save it under the proper file name. :oops:

Hi Adrian,
I proof listened As Easy as ABC.
These stories of his really get technical!
There is a repeat at 26:25:05-26:32 of
'You too big fools,' Pirolo cried. 'You could have sent us a call and we would have told you.'
Please chop the repeat out and when you re-upload it please name it:
ssf055_aseasyasabc_kipling_as_128kb
Thanks!
Amy :D

Hi David,
Nice reading. I proof listened your story. It needs a few edits.
A repeat of ""How long were you in the place that hadn't..." at 22:42.
A repeat of "Nordenfeld only looked more interested. He'd been almost sure ever..." at 22:22.
The opening silence needs to be reduced to one second.
It is too quiet. To amplify this file, use the compressor effect and then amplify it by 2.2.
Please re-upload it when it is ready.
Thank you!
Amy

Okay, I've made the changes. Volume should be OK now. Thanks for catching the editing lapses. Gotta be more careful next time :)

Strange and quirky little story by a great SciFi author that was fun to record.
Enjoy!
