Hallo,

Given previous posts I have cut the footnotes out, but would be happy to insert them again.
All the best
Astrid

Sorry I missed the previous posts. Keep the footnotes out. Thanks!

Thanks, both! PL to come tomorrow.

Footnotes are somewhat at the reader's discretion. The ones that are interesting, they can stay in. The ones that are just references to other books or otherwise not interesting to the listener, they shouldn't be read.

Section 12:

16:51, 19:06, 19:09 - "20 s" - FYI, this is "shillings". ("L" is pounds, "S" is shillings, "D" is pence.)

27:10-27:32 - this section gets really muffled and hard to understand.

Thank you - PL OK!

Very funny. My daughter said I captured Smiles' arrogant tone pretty well!

My computer is giving me problems and I won't be able to finish the 25th section this weekend like I had hoped. I apologize but I won't be able to make the 2 month deadline for Riches and Charity Part 2 section 25.

Bummer! Thanks for letting me know.
