Here are the two chapters:

Chapter 20: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/newcomes_20_thackeray_128kb.mp3
Chapter 77: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/newcomes_77_thackeray_128kb.mp3

Chapter 20 is 22 minutes 23 seconds long & Chapter 77 is 5 minutes 56 seconds long
Hi Maddie! I've listened to your recordings.
Chapter 20 is PL OK.

In chapter 77 there is a short repetition of "my brother and uncle will respect it", around 1:55 in the recording.

Also please leave 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning, otherwise the first word sounds cut off.

Would you like to tell me what kind of editing you do to the sound? I'm asking because it sounds as if you're overly noise cleaning, but maybe I'm wrong :D

Yes, put me down for chapter 2. I needed to check that it contains less French than Ch. 1. I am not a skilled linguist; I learned in my travels that I’m better with charm and pantomime.

Also, if the PL work isn't assigned to anyone in particular, please may I PL Sections 1, 20 and 77?

When PLing, look for sections that are marked " Ready for PL" in the magic window. I think sections 20 and 77 have been proof-listened, but section 1 is Ready for PL. Thanks! :D
