Ken,

That is right. I'll mark you both down.

Thanks,

Thanks Jason,

I assume you would like somebody other than one of us to narrate these sections?

Jason,

1 more question (for now:)). Should we do Chauvelin and Marguerite in French accents? We both speak French, so it isn't a problem. I definitely plan to do Percy in a plummy English accent.

Ken,

Yeah, I don't want one person doing more than one part in a chapter, so someone else will do the narration.

A French accent would be most excellent! BTW, there are a couple more Percy/Marguerite chapters... They might have a little bit of Sir Andrew in one... The last 2 chapters, if I remember correctly. I've not finished prepping those chapters yet.

To all: Sorry I have not finished prepping the last 11 chapters yet. "Real Life" has kept me overly busy lately. Full time work, 3/4 time school, and I'm remodeling a condo, prepping it for sale. I also have to squeeze in some time to squeeze my daughter, so this has been set aside. School will be done in 3 weeks, and the condo better be done before that. I'll then have a little time to work on it, and hopefully finish it, in September.

Thanks all to your help!

And good luck with all that real life stuff!

May I request the 'part' of Lord Anthony?

I think that I could have fun with this character. For your information, I am a Brit and have played Sir Robert Chiltern in Wilde's 'An Ideal Husband', which makes me go for Anthony over Percy (if I had played Viscount Goring I might have tried for Percy).

I work away from home during the week, so I have my evening fairly free - anabling me to crack this out rather quickly.

Many thanks
Jay

Jay,

Did you want all 5 Lord Antony parts, or did you want to just start with a couple?

All,

I just found out that my server is down, which is where all the formatted text is held. I'm not sure how long it has been down, since I have not tried to connect to it from outside my house in several days. We had a power outage a few days ago, and I bet it has been down since then....

I'll be able to fix it when I get home. Probably just changed IP addresses, and I have to update the DNS. I might be able to talk my wife through getting it for me, but if Emma is keeping her busy, I might not. I'll be home about 11-12 hours from now (I'm getting really tired of these long days... just 2.5 more weeks to go though).

I'd love to take all 5 is that is possible - indeed unless I hear otherwise, I'll start recording the first part tonight.

With Anthony, that is OK. There are a couple parts I'd not allow it on, but Anthony is a fine part to do all of. I look forward to hearing it. Hopefully I'll have my server back, so you will have the highlighted text I prepared to go off of, so you can easily see what to read...

Thanks,

Jason

Luckly I opened Chapter III before I volunteered to take the part of Lord Anthony (so your server has fallen over some point today). For some reason I didn't close that window, so I have a copy of the text for that chapter and I will record it tonight.

Great. Then I'll get the server fixed tonight, if I can, so you can do the rest.

Thanks,

Thanks! I'll send them to my server if a few minutes (I just got around to spending the 5 minutes it took to get it working... by the time I get home in the evening and get all my chores done and daughter to bed, I just wanna curl up with a dead tree, so kept forgetting.)

I think I have enough bits done that I might start asking for proof listening. Catharine, do I just put I post over in the listeners wanted section? Will you add the magic window, or can I just get that bit of code out of the first post, and put it into the post over there?
