Hello Colin,
Very nicely read. Thank you. :D

5:22 slight stumble - green cheese and a cooling slice of melon

13:10 slight stumble - the piercing squall of a healthy baby

31:26 slight stumble - which has trading-posts throughout British Colombia.

The recording could use a little noise cleaning. Do you know how to do that? If you are using Audacity I can walk you though the process.

When you post your revision please correct the file name. It should be: seaitsstirringstoryvol1_19_whymper_128kb
