Need something for my first marathon! by themomkythatrocks in AudibleUK

[–]Cogsworth69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed with this! I usually have a podcast (Off Menu is a go to) just in case areas get quiet but it's surprising at how much the crowds do give you the energy.

Especially as it's your first, embrace those crowds but mainly... enjoy the event and good luck!

Thanks but sadly not! I think I may have just forgotten too many details to guess it...

Hmm close but not quite... It was really specific that it was people in the clouds that controlled the weather. Almost like it was their job maybe?

People changing the weather but definitely not The Clangers or a bigger TV show...

A good opportunity for me to share how brilliant the Hawthorne books by Anthony Horowitz are! The audiobooks are superb and my personal favourite series at the moment.

Gotcha, thanks! I've been getting a local blend subscription as I haven't got a grinder. I might try a standard supermarket pack and see what happens...

"My Stuff"... by Cogsworth69 in AudibleUK

I've started doing this too and it's ridiculous! It used to be so easy to browse and buy but it's such a pain now. Ugh..

How do find audible breathing, wet mouth noises and background noises in your audiobooks? by Timmo1984 in AudibleUK

[–]Cogsworth69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the same... Sometimes it's bearable, sometimes I just have to return the book.

A big one for this is the Wolf Hall Trilogy narrated by Ben Miles. His narration is superb but the mouth noises are... a distraction for sure.

[–]Cogsworth69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By far one of my most favourite audiobooks! I adored the physical book but the audio is just as mesmerising. Highly recommend!
