:wink: above is my last section claimed for this thread.
wow it's been 10 sections already ? 8-) thank you for this section, April. While listening I remembered the very interesting TV mini-series about the life of Attila, here is the wiki link to the synopsis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attila_(miniseries)

They really had a great cast of good actors. Gerard Butler as Attila and Powers Boothe as Aetius were simply perfect. :mrgreen: Highly recommendable to watch. And a lot of things you just read in this chapter were also in the movie, so it all sounded familiar to me.

I have a few PL notes this time:

> at 1:05: (p. 541) “the year 445 of our era” – you say “1445”

> at 2:46: (p. 542) stumble and repeat “the tidings that the royal brethren, Attila and Bleda - correction”, can be cut out

> at 4:19: (p. 542) “it was not until the year 451” – again you say “1451”

> from 11:03-11:06: between the end of the text and the end disclaimer, you leave 6 seconds of silence. This is a bit much, I already started to think you had forgotten the end disclaimer ;) could you cut this down to 1 or 2 seconds at the most ?

And that's it, the rest was perfect, also all the many difficult names were nicely pronounced :thumbs: Thanks

Thank you for complimenting my pronunciation of the many difficult names. I did look at the wikipedia link you had attached and was thinking that it would be a good show to watch.

Thanks !

thank you, Sandra ! 2nd customer PL ok. I like it that you don't let yourself be intimidated by Chris' barking performance. You snapping back at him will make a good contrast. :thumbs:
