Oh no! Hope it’s short-lived before you go into withdrawal!
Well, I'm not giving it all up! Just trimming the amount I do for awhile.
Waiting for a clever signature line to occur to me.

Cheers, VERLA

Thank you.
I will listen either later today or tomorrow morning. It is very rare to need a chapter to be re-recorded. Most can be edited or otherwise salvaged. Only ever do changes that are asked for, or you create busy work for everyone.

Chapter 12

~3:45 I hear “the officers will be added to go to their country places"should be “the officers will be allowed to go to their country places"
~7:12 stumble "among the spectators of... of the justice"

There is no need to do anything about this, but throughout I was hearing a noise, like mic bumps, or as if you were kicking the table. This isn't a serious issue, but something you should be aware of and try to prevent in future recordings.
Please do the two edits listed above (please ask if you're not sure how) and re-upload with the same file name. There is no need to re-record the whole section 8-)

Hello

Thank you for proof-listening my chapter and for your PL notes.
I have made the two edits. Please see above corrected file.
I will do some work to try to improve my acoustics, thank you for letting me know. I am trying to soften the surrounding surfaces etc.

Best wishes

Thank you. Soft furnishings usually help… and I even heard of someone using a pile of coats.
