Yes, there *MUST* be more in this series! Bring on the hilarious phrases and Boz's great attempts at repeating them

Already working on Lesson 3. Not sure we'll make it for next Wednesday though!

Heh.
Thanks also to Linda for letting us borrow her voice for Lesson 2.
She'll probably be on Lesson 3 too, but that is not yet certain.

Hehe! Thanks guys! I must say I *really* enjoy doing this. It's even more fun because I don't get *any* warning as to what is going to happen. Slaygon passes the MP3 and text file over to me as the show is being broadcast. I think this helps to give that "flying by the seat of the pants" feel that you get.

And yes, I have to add my cheers to Slaygon and Makke for putting this together for me. I didn't realise, but I am actually learning some Swedish from this! The hardest part for any Briton is the pronunciation of the letters, and hearing a real Swede saying them certainly helps.

Slaygon has just confirmed lesson 3, so I will make an utter tit of myself in front of all the SLAY listeners once again... (good fun, isn't it?!).

And having Linda pronounce some of the Swedish stuff certainly kept my concentration going...

Thanks again for your praise, you guys!

Will have to give Slaygon most cred for this one, since he did almost all the planning and thinking for it.

Mastering Swedish is a product of genious minds, no doubt about it

Oh my Gooood

I don't think I've heard audio that have literally put me out of my chair since back when I was young and listened to the 'original' of what is now known as Saltdal.wav - google it (norwegian swearing recorded by son while daddy attempts to fix the washing mashine)

Increadible stuff, I'm really looking forward to the next one.

You still stand by this statement? Because I had an eerie feeling that if you had been sitting next to me, I would have had a couple of hands around my neck. =)

Terribly sorry for the difficulty of Lesson 3, though I can promise you - Lesson 4 will be much easier. And it will probably be of use too, although not quite exactly the way you might think. =)
