it took me a moment to get the joke, and then I read the title of your section :lol: yes Napoleon is back, but not for long. He really had a way to work the crowds, it seems. Charisma probably.

Excellent narrative again, thank you ! Enjoyed listening to it all.

I only found one small stumble you forgot to cut out:

> at 8:48: (p. 362) stumble and repeat: "a few francs": can be cut out, along with a lengthy pause before the sentence starts again

the rest is perfect ! Thanks

Thanks, Sonia, for your patience! Sorry it has taken forever to get these uploaded. Hopefully they sound OK. My voice was not at its best when they were recorded. :(

thank you so much, Jo, for these three sections. Now I feel bad you had to record them while your voice was hurting :( If it's any consolation, it doesn't sound off in any way.

All three sections are perfectly narrated and PL ok. :9:

Only 3 sections remaining, we're close ! :D

better late than never 8-) thank you, Ting, for this nice recording. Ah, the nobility was so arrogant back then, no wonder that Napoleon managed to come back a second time :lol:

Textually all is word perfect, but I have a few small corrections to note:

> at 7:00: (p. 356) “they were so occupied with the contemplation of their own deserts” – here: “desert” means “merit”, so it needs to be stressed on the last syllable (just like “dessert”), otherwise it would mean “an arid place”, which doesn’t make sense here in this context :wink:

> at the end: there’s barely 2 seconds of silence at the end, could you insert 3 more, so we have the standard 5 seconds, please

> the volume is a bit over our accepted limits, could you please decrease with -2 dB

thank you !

Hi Sonia,

I know only my two recordings are left. Just to let you know I haven´t dropped off the face of the earth and that it´s on my radar. :D
Hopefully I´ll get them done over the next few days.
