I must say that I sound very stilted. My first sentence comes out ok, then my brain slows down - something similar to what happens when answering the 2nd half of those long translations in the challenges. Hopefully things will improve with time.
Thatās exactly the point of itā¦
Donāt worry - itās the same process for everyoneā¦

Itās so weird to record yourself and think on the hop. Iāve just made a video in English (Maeān llwytho i YouTube rwan @aran) and itās so weird to speak to a camera or recorder.

OK, people! Here it is - the most boring recording youād ever hear - and yes, itās mine ā¦
No need to say Iāve recorded about 10 of them alltogether 3 days in a row but ended uploading the most boring one because it seamed the best to me ā¦ and yet, even there are mistakes ā¦
Chiers!

OK @aran I hope Iām doing this right as I often seem to find myself in the wrong thread! Hereās my pretty awful five minute test - aloud - and no, I am NOT fishing for compliments by denigrating my efforts, just being a realist!

@carolineparkinson I hope you donāt mind me editing your post so that your recording appears as an embed rather than the link.
On the other note: Well done!
Hwyl!

No, absolutely dim problem @tatjana And if you tell me how to do whatever it is I need to do to make it less trwbl for you guys, then I will do whatever it takesā¦ 
You just didnāt put the link into new line, thatās all it was to do for me in order to embed your recording. So now you know, when youāll put the recording on here next time, you just need to put it in the separate line. If youāre not sure the line is new line, you make two new lines before pasting the link. Discourse software itself looks after the stuff and do it appear as just one line space.

Okay; hereās my 5-minute recording of the 13 questions! Yes, I could have spent ages repeating it over and over again until it was perfect, but as that is definitely NOT the SSiW way I have decided to let it stand as it is, with its deficiencies:

Vicky, having just spent ages preparing my own 5-minute recording and just posted it below, I know how hard it is. You sound like you have really given it everything that you have - well done!

Okay, so I wonāt compliment you on how well you really did. Just say that if you were perfect then you wouldnāt need SSiW in the first place - just like the rest of us!

And hereās my attemptā¦ Similarly alcohol-fixated as @Baruch! (And I did have a beer by my side as I was doing it, for added authenticity!)

Very unsure if any of this will workā¦I think this should be my very embarrassing and hesitant answers. I have been working on speed and still sound too slow.
However, itās been just as stressful using soundcloud for the first time. I didnāt know I was signing up for āa tech courseā too. Used the same approach as speaking to strangers in a strange tongueā¦bang on regardless and do it quick before you realise what you are doing.
