Hi Anne,

PL Notes

Just a detail in the outros for sections 9 to 13:

I hear "End of section 9" instead of "End of Buttercup Days"; "End of Section 10" instead of "End of The Charcoal Burner"; "End of Section 11" instead of "End of Us Two"; "End of Section 12" instead of "End of The Old Sailor", and "End of Section 13" instead of "End of The Engineer".

Sections 14, 15, 16, 17, 19 and 20 are PL OK.

Aargh. I did it again. Must have been having an off day when those went up. I'll fix them all and reupload. I'd like to be consistent.

Thanks,
Winnifred

Fixed and reuploaded (#10 went from 1:19 to 1:20, but the rest are unchanged in duration):

My voice sounds a bit different in some of them, but since there's a pause before each outro, I don't think it'll be too jarring.

Thanks for that catch!

Cheers,
Winnifred

Thanks for helping out :D
Winifrid - perhaps you should check the other recordings outro to save the PLer having to listen twice and post twice .

Good idea. I've done that and all the remaining ones have the right outro.

Thanks,

Hi, Winnifred,

Sections 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 are PL OK. :clap:

No problem at all with those subtle voice differences you mention. In my experience, we never sound quite the same and that's perfectly alright. :D

I'm thoroughly enjoying this re-encounter with Now We Are Six.

Thank you.

It’s a lot of fun, isn’t it? I have fond memories of reading it (repeatedly!) to my son when he was little.
