thank you, Jim and Andrew, for your sections. I will not PL immediately, as I have some sections of my own to record this weekend.

But Andrew, section 47 is yours, thank you :)

Hello. I'd like to claim sections 63 and 84. :)
I have this New Year's Resolution to every month help and contribute to at least one project that is approaching the finish line. Let's see how it goes.

oh hey Piotrek, nice to have you in here as well. Though I don't think that we qualify yet as "close to the finishing line", but you are welcome to read the sections. :9: I hope you like them, and thanks !

This was an interesting read. I didn't realise there were lay schools in Ireland too. Somehow it's usually the religious schools that get mentioned.


I also PLed section 115 since there wasn't any note in the MW indicating its designated PLer. I've heard about Eistedfodd before. Great tradition.

thank you for the PL, Piotrek. Jim is regularly PLing my sections in here, but he won't be angry if you did the job for him once ;)

And thanks for your section as well. I have a bit of a backlog this weekend, but will surely get around to PLing it tomorrow.

thank you for this quite entertaining read of a rather lengthy and probably boring ceremony in real life :lol: You managed to bring it all on with panache in your narration. :thumbs: Well done and flawless reading, straight PL ok.

thank you for both these beautifully narrated sections, Piotrek :9: very interesting too, and you have a great diction in English. :thumbs: Looking forward to your next section. These two are PL ok.
