I enjoyed this very much! Just finished it. I quite like your accent.
I do have a few things to point out that I couldn't help but notice.
1) Blowing into the mic when saying certain words. I know it's hard to avoid this sometimes, but moving the mic further away from your mouth, or below your nose and/or chin helps a bit.
2) 'Throat clicking'. Not sure what else to call it, but when I record it happens because my mouth is dry, needing a drink and maybe a break. Or I just edit it out.
4) I think it was either at the end of part 3 or the beginning of 4, but I heard what I think was a bird chirping. I heard something louder, like a cage banging, at five minutes into part 4.
A lot of that could have been edited out, though it'd take some time. I know sometimes it's hard to hear everything (I missed stuff with my mic headset while recording my own stuff) but now I finally got an iPod and it seems I can hear those things more easily.
Overall, I smiled and laughed a lot. Thank you for recording this, I will definitely be listening to it again sometime.
