I dare say TrickyNick that this may be one of your finest, so very well done, truly. Thank you, I keep an eye out for any and all of your readings. I highly recommend for anyone reading this comment Nicks rendition of “The Mildenhall Treasure” and “The Hitchhiker”, both are excellent.

Hi again, gosh how kind. Thank you. There are a few little bits in the pipeline that will be out soon. Audio word, but a bit different this time and may not be of wide appeal. All in connection with British canals and narrow boating. And then maybe another Dahl or PGW. Cheers Nick

Although I was studying Plant sciences in the university 20 years back, I couldn't keep myself away from PG Wodehouse and would inadvertently find myself digging for his books in the English literature section in the library book shelves... Your reading is such a treat! 🇵🇰Best wishes 🇵🇰

Thanks Nick for yet another brilliant performance of several , very differing characters 👍 It’s been a very pleasant change for me, having been hooked on visual video’s which is obviously a strain on the eyes. I can now have comfortable pleasure. moving around the house whilst listening thru my Bluetooth earphones 😁👍 Re the tip I added to your video of THE HITCHHIKER....Are you able to attach the same TIP to all your masterpieces so they they have no need to end up wandering around KZfaq?

@judeirwin2222 Жыл бұрын

Nick sometimes goes a bit nuts with pronunciations. For example "timbre". It's not pronounce "Tam bray" - possibly an attempt to give it a Frenchy fillip. Not a successful effort, Nick. Try "TAM brr". Somewhat closer. I also find the laboured way Nick reads Bertie's part - at a snail's pace and very deliberately, a wee bit...tooth gritting.

@Trickynickymarts Жыл бұрын

Jude, I thought you had long given up on these stories - understandable with all that tooth gritting going on! However, always nice to have you along - and your corrections. If timbre should turn up again, I now know the way!
