@classicaudiobookswithelliot 10 месяцев назад

Thank you Bia. It shows the exact line I believe that the story references: the Riviera from Genoa to Nizza. I think that these lovely images were used as advertising material in the early 1900s!

I am so glad I found your channel. I don't particularly like "ghost" stories but ever since listening to "Friday When It Rains" (which I suggest you add to your collection if possible) I find that some are not too bad. I really like this one and am unsure if the element is ghostly or if there is something else going on but I like it so much that I have listened to it about 6 or 8 times already. For one, the narrator's voice is so soothing to me that it puts me right to sleep, however, I have been able to listen to the story from beginning to end. But that was during the day...lol

@classicaudiobookswithelliot 6 месяцев назад

That’s great you found the channel, Jai! So happy to have you here. Unfortunately the story you suggested is not in the public domain so I won’t be able to tackle it. But plenty of non-spooky stuff to come as well soon!

This might be nice for daytime but I asked for a romantic audiobook on RU-vid to relax me to sleep and this is not working all the way I like it will listen to it in the day sometime

@classicaudiobookswithelliot 5 месяцев назад

If this is what life is like on the railways, the Tory government should accede to the recent pay demands of the rail unions; I'm sending a link to the current transport minister. That should settle things.

@judeirwin2222 3 месяца назад

This chap is supposed to be from the Black Country near Birmingham. Was it beyond the capacity of the producers to find a narrator with an appropriate accent? This fellow sounds more West Country. Very disappointed.

@classicaudiobookswithelliot 3 месяца назад

Hi Jude. Benjamin is described as turning his face northward and going over to the Black Country indicating he is not from there. As “Chadleigh” is a fictional place but Chudleigh is in the West Country it made sense to orient the character there. This is a one-man band channel. I am the narrator, editor, producer et al

@LGHTSPD675 8 месяцев назад

Tired narrative, great narrating. Overall, 2.5 out of 5 stars. Seems like the author had some gilt, wanted others to feel gilt the author thought was needed to protect the aristocracy, or had a fantasy to be so coveted the hand of God would need to intervene. Narcissist much? This story is drivel, again, narration is on point.

@classicaudiobookswithelliot 8 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed the narration, thanks for listening!

@LGHTSPD675 8 месяцев назад

@classicaudiobookswithelliot Thank you for providing the service, I am looking at other stories on your channel that are a bit more interesting and insightful. Thanks again for the service.

I listened to this for over 28 minutes before I finally realized that I had listened to it in it’s entirety a couple of weeks ago.… I feel so stupid… videos used to be underlined in red when they had been listened to; but for some reason this time, this was not.

@classicaudiobookswithelliot Месяц назад

Thanks for listening again anyway!
