Sec. 5 and 11 are both pleasure to listen, thank you.
Sec.5: @2:05 a stumble at "soldiers" and @12:25 add "End of section 5"
Sec.11 PL OK

I would like to claim:

12 The Burnin’ O’ The Kirk p 93 Open

By my reckoning it is a wonderful chapter, and a touching way of concluding the Gray's memoir.

Sec. 6 and 7 are pleasure to listen, thank you!
Sec.6 PL OK
Sec.7 has a high level of background noise. Try Audacity > Effects > Noise reduction, this might save your enjoyable recording, Kerry.
Next time make sure your recording device is not getting charged during your narration, that might be the culprit.

Chulsky: You're right! This one did not get through the final edit like I thought it did. I will clean it up and resubmit it.
Thanks for your feedback,

Hate to see this title finish up...I THINK I'm getting better at phonetically spelled Scot speech. Am anxiously looking forward to hearing the attempts of others, especially those who can converse in it or have heard it more directly than myself.
Thank you,
