Thank you and yes, throat is better although I still sound like I’ve been smoking for 40yrs now! :yum:

Did you have vocal nodes? Voice sounded like a singer friend of mine who went through that. I sing (or used to) but never had to go through that. Glad you’re better; you have a good voiceover voice!

I had a right vocal fold implant that was damaged due to radiotherapy I had in 2005 for Tonsil cancel. All good now and yes, might approach Hollywood now! :grin:

Is that an Aussie accent? I’ve always been a fan of it, not to mention the culture.

New Zealand. You know, the ones that won the Americas cup today :relaxed:

EDIT: Hey congrats on the cup!

One of the four places I’ve always wanted to go to before I die:

  1. Japan
  2. Australia and New Zealand
  3. Amsterdam
  4. Fiji

Sorry @RitteT - Aus and NZ are bitter enemies, and dont appreciate getting lumped together :wink:

13

Keen rivals is probably more appropriate. :yum:

I guess it depends on the sport. Also - Both Japan and NZ are amazing places to visit. can’t really talk about Aus, as it is home.

Think this was directed at me; I had them on the same line because of their proximity and the ability to visit both places in one trip.

Sorry about that! LOL
