well, you haven't lost your touch yet. It's perfectly PL ok. Good for starters ;) The final scene was pictured so vividly that I can imagine it as a famous painting. :9:

Thanks

Hi Everyone! I finally had the chance to upload my claimed sections, I hope they are good. If there is any huge mistake I may have missed, please let me know. I have run these both through the Checker program, and they have passed the required tests.

Thank you,

Olly AG

thank you, Olly, these two stories were very well narrated, I enjoyed both of them 8-) I especially had to laugh at the end of the "sketch", the episode with the maid's handkerchief :lol: you changed your tone of voice from languid to cheerful there and that was a great touch. It gives the reader the impression that you also had trouble keeping the laugh from your voice ;) well done.

Section 7 is straight PL ok.

I have one small correction for section 6 though:

> at 2:32: (p. 284) "and fastened it by one corner over my writing table" - if I'm not mistaken I think you say "wilting", which does not make much sense in the context :hmm:

The rest was perfect and already I hope you enjoyed the Rover, so I can hear you in another issue some time soon. :mrgreen:

haha, this was original to write the article in a sort of ship's jargon, it was very funny to listen to. Thank you, Jim, yet another PL ok section :)

Hi,

Thank you very much for the feedback. It turns out, I read "writing" as "wilting" because the source text letters were slightly broken up :lol:

I have checked, and the fixed line should blend pretty well into the rest of my audio.

Thank you,

Olly AG

it's perfectly edited and PL ok now :)

yes, the script is quite a challenge, I'm afraid. I always magnify the page very much to read it accurately :lol:

thank you

wow this was a long section April, and quite a difficult one, the topics being so diverse and complex. You did really great and I enjoyed the musings of an old bachelor :lol:

However I found a few differences to the text, I think part of it occured because the script is really difficult to decipher at some points and you probably had to guess at the meaning.

Here is what needs correcting:

> at 3:33: (p. 281) "&c &c" - is usually the abbreviation for "et cetera, et cetera" ("and so on and so forth", in English)

> at 6:23: (p. 281) "to a sordid centering in self" - I hear "to a war centering in itself"

> at 11:45: (p. 282) "everything can blast an infant blossom" - I hear something like "can be asked"

> at 16:33: (p. 282) "nor kneel unblessed" - you say "unbloomed"

> at 16:40: (p. 282) "its cheering track is lost to one" - you can cut "upon" at the beginning of the sentence

> at 21:35: (p. 283) "form the best introductory school for the pulpit" - you say "beat"

> at 23:20: (p. 283) "as are some of our modern pious who shrink" - I hear "pinous sees" or something

thanks

hey there, Aidan, no worries, you still have officially till the 12 September to finish your sections (two-month-deadline). But thanks for checking in. And of course no one is angry if you are done earlier ;)

Have a nice day

Wow, so many corrections that I will be making. Thank you Sonia for letting me know just what I should be correcting. You were correct in the text not being all that perfect to determine just what certain words were.

Here is my file with your edits applied. I do wonder though with the edit @ 16;30, it does not sound correct to me. I did attempt to look at the text (pg. 282 as you had so graciously noted for me) & I could not pull up that page to see it. :hmm:
Therefore I leave it to you as to weather or not it needs my help somehow.
April
