now he is quite startled and afraid at the end when he realizes his mistake. A funny moment, well done, Alan, thanks

I also corrected the typo in the MW.

But since he already mentions himself that he can "cog the die", I was thinking, maybe it would be a better pun on words if he called himself "Cog-dye" instead of "Cog-dee", don't you think ? You mention the name three times:

Cogdie act 1 revised

I agree with Sonia's suggestion that this character's name should be a play on words, Well Spotted

if you hadn't mentioned "cog the die" I wouldn't have spotted it, since I didn't even know that expression. Something new learnt. Very valuable information if I want to mingle with the sharpers and cardplayers of this world.

And PL ok now, thanks Alan

though I have not understood any of the rules of that dice game, the file is excellently PL ok, thank you Alan. Seems like Cogdie in the end is having a taste of his own medicine.

well you know how it goes...sisterly love only holds as long as there are no boys involved

(at least not in these comedies - I don't think I would ever fight with my sister for one in real life)

excellently portrayed again, super well done

Angelica is relishing in her dramatic outbursts

Looking forward to the rest, especially your crossdressing.

A few small edits to make:

> for the voice credit, please always read the whole description that you can see in the MW: "Angelica, in Love with Valere, read by..."

> at 2:57: (p. 146) between "Favourite" and "if Valere comes" - could you leave more space for the stage directions, it's easier for Todd to fiddle with the copy/paste when there is more space

> at 4:20: (p. 153) "rise, Valere" - you say "rife" (the pesky long s strikes again)

thanks

Sonia

Thanks Sonia!

SO happy I caught you before you left!

Thanks for the feedback, you are so reliably thorough and I’m so reliably flummoxed! lol But that seems to go with the characters I’m drawn to.

I made the suggested corrections.

But really my dear sister, stop messing with my boyfriend.

yes this may well be my last Spot PL before I log off and go underground

apart from the fact that you sent it to the wrong folder

this is now PL ok. And no need to reupload, I moved it over into Todd's folder.

Thanks

Act 5 -

In Act 5 I recorded the OMNES laugh not being sure if the Marquis was included in that group or not.

Take care,

Greg
