Ten Dead Mice: See How They Died , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 40min
We were supposed to fill in the blank: "Dead as _______." Being a group of authors, we all jumped on board with our silly answers, mine being: "Dead as my hamster would be if our dog's fantasy came true." Several mousey answers were posted, and my head filled up with a lifetime of dead mouse and other rodent stories - true stories all - and Ten Dead Mice: See How They Died was brought to life. I'll probably catch hell for calling it Ten Dead Mice when the stories involve mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters, and even a squirrel, but the title is catchy and they're all rodents. So here goes... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Allie Mars. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/025405/bk_acx0_025405_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.- Shop: Audible

Memoirs of a Cotswold Vet , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 580min
When the telephone rang at 11 pm that night, the last thing I imagined I would hear was, 'For Christ's sake get here quick mister, he's grown another bleedin' leg!' This heart-warming account of veterinary life traces Ivor Smith's early days as a student at university through setting up his own practice in the Cotswolds, recounting a memorable 40 years in the profession. Following in the Herriot tradition of veterinary humour, Ivor's memories of life as a vet in a very mixed practice include hilarious incidents, colourful local characters, and engaging patients - from calving cows in the middle of cold spring nights and handling ferocious gerbils, to setting up home in a mouse-infested farmhouse, and even finding a new-born baby on his doorstep. ungekürzt.

This week on The Best of Car Talk, got a pencil neck and an empty summer calendar? Tom and Ray are here for you, with the first (and probably last) Geek Week Summer Camp.

Also, Steve’s power steering needs a wake-up call for five minutes into his morning drive; Jackie’s boyfriend’s starting technique may not be hurting her truck, but is doing a number on her back; and on Stump the Chumps, we find out if Roy really had a stuck brake caliper or if Tommy is going to be dining on his hat.

The Real Macaw: A Meg Langslow Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 519min
During an early morning feeding for her four-month-old twins, Meg Langslow hears an odd noise and goes downstairs to find her living room filled with dozens of animals - cats, dogs, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a stunningly foul-mouthed macaw. She soon learns that financial woes have caused the local animal shelter to repeal its no-kill policy. Her kind-hearted father, her zoologist grandfather, and other like-minded citizens have stolen all the shelter animals, both as a gesture of protest and to protect them until the hated policy can be repealed. But the volunteer who was transporting animals to new homes has been murdered. Was it the victim's tangled love life that drove someone to murder? Or the dark secrets behind local politics? And will Meg ever succeed in finding homes for all the animals that have landed in her life? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bernadette Dunne.

The Bluffer's Guide® to Public Speaking , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 92min
Be an instant expert on Public Speaking and Bluff Your Way with any audience. No exertion required, just a sense of humour. From 'memorising'to 'mannerisms', and from 'presentation' to 'unplanned interruptions', here's all you need to know to sound as if you know it all.Extracts from the book: Opening lines Opening lines need only hold the audience for the first minute or two of the speech. This is because most audiences have the same concentration span as gerbils, and rapidly lose interest after this time. A pearl in the rough A speech is not expected to be comprehensive, or the last word on the subject. This gives you an ideal opportunity for bluffing. One little-known pearl of obscure or irrelevant fact will have more impact and do your reputation more good than any amount of sensible information. Indeed, by delivering it, the speaker is presumed by listeners to know about the subject in depth. Bravado Deciding what to say about the subject is easier if you happen to know something about it, but do not be daunted if you do not. Many professionals have made a handsome living out of speaking on subjects they know nothing about. Politicians and television personalities are fine examples of this. This is a Bluffer's Guide; Bluffer's Guides, Bluffer's Guide, Bluffer's, and Bluff Your Way are Registered Trademarks. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jack Klaff.
