Another hi from London

Hi all.

I'm Chris (aka Czechchris) from London UK.

I am new here, but already have my 'feet wet' with a chapter of Our Mutual Friend and a solo project ongoing (Idle Thoughts Of An Idle Fellow by Jerome K Jerome).

I have an ongoing problem with my heart, which means I am unable to work so I have some free time, and I was so glad to come across Librivox. I love books (recently I discovered the writing of Solzhenitsyn and I am hooked on his work at the moment), and reading aloud, so Librivox is a godsend.

I used to read aloud to my wife (all the books of Dickens except A Christmas Carol, a few Thomas Hardy, Anthony Trollope, Vanity Fair, and even War And Peace!) and now I can read aloud to a wider audience.

Why Czechchris? I love the Czech Republic, have many friends there, and have had some wonderful holidays there. I struggle with the language, but can usually make myself understood. (What a pity The Good Soldier Svejk is not PD yet!)

I am glad to be part of this great project and hope my feeble contributions can contribute to the worthy goal of making great publications freely available in audio format.
