I actually edited out a lot more silence (but nothing else). I think I'm editing while zoomed out too far in Audacity, and I don't see the silences so clearly until I'm zoomed in.
I don't even have to look, while I'm listening to it I notice that some silences are way too long. I notice I get that "dragging out" feeling especially when it gets over 2 seconds of silence. But yes, I always zoom in to see every second in the meter-bar on top of the audio waves. That way I can edit much more accurately.
You didn't know this, usually you only should correct what's in the PL notes. But as soon as you
correct anything else than the PL notes, it would be helpful to give me the
exact time spots to re-check, like I gave them to you. Because as soon as there is anything else changed, I need to re-check it all from scratch if I don't get the Spot PL time stamps.
Even with only a silence trimmed, it can quickly happen that you cut off a word as well. (it already happened in other recordings, I speak from experience). I checked the 12 minutes again now, but I would have saved time if I only had to do a Spot PL. Just mentioning it for next time then.
Thank you, this one is
PL ok now
Oh and the first PM with some Irish words has been sent to you

I may have to ask you for help soon again. I recorded them as I thought they would sound good, but I prefer to double check with you. Will write you a PM soon about it.
and perfectly PL ok, thanks. I was thrilled that I remembered the Irish word for 20. 
Some small bits are still left in my memory from those courses at university.
that's probably why you skipped the lines by accident
