I would like to claim 4,5,20,31,32,52,53,54,55,64,65,71 please.

I will wait until these are assigned just in case I have picked a section that someone has already spoken up for.

Off to Africa now -

Lynda
This still needs to be assigned Phil.... :) Thanks!

PS - Not sure what is happening to number 3 - I will take it also - the funny thing is it says "Claimed" on it but no person assigned to it....
Not sure either but all those, incuding 3, is all yours. You are just a reading machine lmnei!

Both are yours. That first one Is going to be a great story I think. Image

The second is the longest story in this book so it will be enjoyable for much longer.

OK, here's 66.

The moral is only a little out of date, I think. That's the beauty of fairy tales; they seem to be timeless.

Note to PL: I'm a little worried about "P"-plosives in this recording, but I can't seem to find any way to get completely rid of them…except to redo the whole thing. I'll do that if needed.

Thanks. I will put this in the MW. About 'plosives, just don't read any words starting with p. :roll: Actually, moving the mic a bit to the side of my mouth helps me a lot.

Whew! Here is 73, at last. This one took some editing. Hopefully, I'll get faster at that as I gain experience.
