With Richard Armitage doing so many audiobooks lately, I’m thinking that I may need to supplement my Audible UK subscription. Apparently, you can have a subscription with more than one Audible marketplace (country).
I just noticed that until September 19, Audible Canada has a deal where you get 2 free audiobooks when you sign up for the free 30-day trial, instead of the usual 1. Cancel anytime, of course.
I’ll probably do it for the 2 free books. I have noticed, though, that the Canada site does not have quite the selection that the UK site does, although they do have some titles not on the UK site. (As an example, I’ve been wanting to listen to Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine read by Cathleen McCarron from the Canada site. Her delivery sounds really good in the sample.) Also, it looks like if you keep your Canada subscription going, credits only roll over to the following month, whereas the UK site lets you roll over for up to 6 months.
So I’m dying to know did you decide which way to go U.K. or Canada 🇨🇦 subscription?
Did you get your keychains yet? I’m still waiting on my one….

Well, see,I already have a UK subscription. But you can have more than one. So I’m also going to sign up for the Canada one, get my 2 free, and then cancel. You just have to sign out of the app and then switch countries, back and forth, when you want to access the other country’s content.

Ok that is good to know. I got my free one in Feb from US Audible which I still haven’t finished yet but my list is growing from your recommendations and Servetus recommendations on her blog. I’m wondering what is taking so long w the keychains esp if you haven’t gotten yours and you live in Canada.

In Canada, yes, but it’s around 2,500 miles away (via roads). Regular parcel post should take around 7 business days, so maybe the middle of this week. Fingers crossed!

They arrived today! In a pink bubble envelope with a hand-printed note from the seller – Nice touch. They are great!

I got my keychain just now, very cute with a nice note from Carla. I like the personal touches. The coat he is wearing is Belstaff (I think) and low and behold I found one on Ebay perusing it late one night two weeks ago and bid on it -women’s coat. I mean I look at the pic and it looks a dead ringer for his. Wow!!!

I did!! It was 43 pounds plus shipping but still I googled it on Amazon and it was a heck of a lot more. Not as nice as Roz’ but she is tiny and I’m more busty too so I think it will fit. I went a little crazy on EBay after the Auction so I have to dial it back now but the quality and turn around time have been marvelous!!
I’ve been oogling and caressing my key chain all day. Zee’s pics of Richard from Monday are also rolling around in my head.

That sounds like a good price! Enjoy it!
I showed a trusted work friend my keychains today and we were giggling about them. I’m still not sure I can use them, though — what if someone borrows my keys? Might have to just kept them handy just for me.

Ahh thank you!! I like the jacket and the shirt look. I wonder why he looks schleppy in some Audible pics and others he’s looking dapper and debonair.

I think it might depend on whether he’s made himself comfortable to do his reading or whether he’s dressed up knowing there will be pictures.
