Hi maudales. Thanks for your interest in prooflistening, but this project already has a dedicated prooflistener (DPL) who will listen to all the sections. You can see this at the top of the MW in the first post and by the fact that there is no tilde ~ at the beginning of the thread title.

At 14:48 thru 15:04 there is a repeated false start that begins with "In the centre stands a full length. . ."

and at 15:15 thru 15:18, you can clip out the "Parliament Buildings, Ottawa. Page 22."

Since the reader of this section has not been on the forum in close to 2 months, I've gone ahead and made the edits to this file. Section 3 is ready for spot PL.

Hi, Betty!

Sections 36 and 37 are both superbly recorded. My PL Note is for an optional edit.

What do you think about moving the final portion of Section 36, starting at 18:04, into the beginning of the reading in Section 27?

I think this would improve the Taj Mahal discussion by keeping it all together, but if you don't want to do this edit, we can ok these are they are.

Good morning - I am a bit concerned that a recording of mine has gone astray.
Forgive me if I am being pushy - I know you are all very busy but am not sure if it has gotten lost
I sent through section 38 on Oct 16th but it is still listed as assigned in the MW .

Cheers

My apologies, Jenn. I must have missed your post.

Thanks for the gentle reminder. Your file is linked in the MW now and ready for PL.
