Temperature tolerance is all relative! :lol: Since it got above 30 and the sun was shining for an hour yesterday, I went outside to wash some windows!

Chapter 9 is up.

This chapter resulted in a humorous blooper: https://librivox.org/uploads/bloopers/portlyplace_blooper.mp3

I also spent a full two minutes attempting to say "in sic a whummle an' a rum'le an' a remish." :lol:

Love it! I've kept a few of my favorite bloopers as well. :lol:

And as I just came off of editing a chapter myself, I know what you mean about those occasional impossible phrases... though I can have those struggles with plain old English some days!!

Chapter 9 is PL OK. What a fascinating cross-cultural view of London... and great sarcasm! :D

I've had a lingering sore throat for a few days :? , but nevertheless, I brewed up a cup of peppermint tea and pressed on with chapters 10 and 11! :mrgreen:

I had some tea left, so I rounded it off with chapter 12. Felt like I had to make up for only doing one chapter last week. :lol:

Love the rationale! (And tea! Have you ever grown and dried your own peppermint tea? It grows like a weed in our garden. We like Chocolate Mint even better if you can find the plant.)

Get well soon! "The" virus had me too fatigued to record for a couple weeks last month. Always good to get back to it.

I tried growing my own. I had some chocolate mint in a container. (No yard here, sadly.) But I lost almost all of my container plants last year in a sudden frost. :cry: I tried chamomile, too, but I started it from seed, and the seedlings were not able to stand up to Texas sun.

Sad!

On a happy note, sections 10-12 are PL OK!

Two more chapters for you!

The wind has been blowing hard all day and rattling my windows, but I finally decided to do my best to record anyway. If you hear any rattling or other odd bumps in the night, please let me know.

Yeah, the wind can stop me from recording too. But these sounded good to me. 13 and 14 are PL OK!

Chapter 15 is up. I'll try to do 16 today as well, but first I have to put some food in my tummy so that my mic doesn't hear it growling. :wink:

And here's chapter 16!

While most of my memory of this book is fuzzy, I do remember this estrangement between Malcolm and Blue Peter, and I remember that it broke my heart while it lasted. :cry: I knew it would be coming soon.

Oh, I had forgotten that part... sad! But I remember a happy ending. :D Hope to PL in a couple days.
