Daniel,
The tape arrived today - I've only had a chance to play a bit of it - the Plattdeutsch side. I's really good! For some bizarre reason it reminds me a bit of Cajun music - I really can't think why!
Daniel, thanks a lot for sending it, and the transcription. Anything I can do in return, just let me know.
By the way, I agree about computers causing us to "unlearn" to write - I get the same problem. My handwriting looks awful now beacuse I've worn my fingers down on the keyboard!
Best wishes,
Graeme
