Indeed! Fixed and reuploaded. Thank you very much! :D

Hello EltonTheSnowman,
I really enjoyed your characterization of Isabel. :D Here are my notes for Act 1: at 22:20, I believe there is a line missing between "There. That's better." and "What have you got for a pillow?" That line is: "You'll put your overcoat over you?"

At 23:11, please check to make sure you used "would" in the line "It would be too bad if...."

At 26:46 after "Come in, Johnnie!" and before "And we all do what..." please add the line "It was lovely of you to drive all night...to find me."

Thank you,
Lora

Here's the corrected file for Isabel, Act 1:

(28:48)

I rerecorded that tiny part of a sentence at 23:11 because I did indeed say "It wouldn't" instead of "It would". I blame the obviously contagious sleepiness of the character :lol:

Hi wib66,
You did a nice job on the stage directions for Act 1!
I have a few minor notes: at 26:15 please add Station-Master before (Disclaiming responsibility); at 45:01 please omit repetition of "coquetry"; at 45:23 add "Florence turns to Ames suddenly" after "The fire begins to pick up; and last but not least, at 46:09 omit "Alexa stop" :D

Thank you!
Lora

Thanks Lora. I didn't read this properly at first and thought you wanted me to add in 'Alexa Stop'. I was thinking to myself what a strange line to be in the play. Ha Ha oh dear will sort that over the next couple of days thanks

Michelle--It was quite a funny moment for me; I'd never heard that in a recording before! :D
Thanks for your hard work, Lora

Chris,

Some claims are 2 months old now. Were extensions requested? Are you extending them?

Thanks, Todd

Oh dear! I think I’m one of those over due claims :oops: :oops:

May I get a short extension, Chris? I should have time this weekend to get it done.
