As this is your first recording, I’ll just assign one section for now, with the option to come back and claim more later.
Please be sure to read the first post and ask if you have questions.

I’d love to try my hand at section 3, if possible :)

I have one question though, as to how to pronounce « 4/0 », as in « Among the flies which my host had given me was a “Mar Lodge” (size 4/0), »

do you say « four aught »? « four slash zero »?

thanks in advance.
