Just leaning on everyones good nature to give a puff for a slim volume which I have written.
It is called `Atrak the other Otter` and is an updated version of Tarka the Otter, Wind in the Willows etc. Being the well read lot I know you all to be you will be familiar with these stories.
My book will be serialised at 10 pm UK time for the next 6 Saturdays, (starting tomorrow 7th March) in 30 minute chunks.
Tune in your computer to www.dovercommunityradio.co.uk and press the cassette in the top right corner at that time and enjoy. If you have a small child aged around 8/9 around they might well enjoy it too, but on a different level.
There is one chapter where Atrak goes flying, gliding I admit, but heigh ho, which you might enjoy. You won`t get all the jokes, in fact unless you are a certain age (remember Kilroy?) you will miss some altogether but I hope you find it amusing.
Dover Radio programmes are broadcast on radio down a swathe of the UK South coast and streamed worldwide at the url above. Responses come from Oz,NZ, Canada, USA. Dover Radio and myself will be very interested in any feedback you care to pass our way.
Thanks for your indulgence

Hi Charlie, i think the only way to do that is to leave a tape recorder running with the mic close to your computer. Too complex for me. Pat

Hi Pat, if you would like to save it for posterity, there is a much better alternative to a tape recorder. Try a free downloadable program that is quite safe from crapware called Audacity.
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
You can use it to record either from a mic, or it will record whatever your computer is playing through the speakers. It is open source software and designed to be user friendly, quite simple to configure, any 14 year old ought to be able to do it for you in 2 or 3 minutes without reading the instructions, or you could read the instructions and do it yourself in 10.

Thanks for everyone who made suggestions about recording this broadcast. Unfortunately the broadcast itself was a disaster. The DJ who was on before my story was due to go out did 2 hours live He then switched to another computer which was scheduled to run automatically for another 2 hours of the DJ`s stuff and then play my story, and went home. Unfortunately the volume slider on the new computer was not advanced and the signal was going no farther than the mixing desk. The problem was realised by my brother in law who was monitoring things on his own computer at home He contacted the chief engineer who unfortunately lived 20 miles away and had to readjust things remotely and switch the broadcast back to the original computer. This took time and Atrak the OTHER Otter finally went out about 7 minutes late and as there was nothing going on but a carrier wave on the station I should think that all the listeners had given up in disgust.
My chance at world wide fame, I was already signing the film contract, gone down the Swannee.
Cheers
Pat

Russ,
Electrons were innocent. Human error as usual.
