You seem to have had a couple of problems with your Friday Big Picture report. A skype call rang for an interminable length of time in the background which was a distraction to me and I think, to yourself. Perhaps you should switch off Skype as a precaution before you start recording? Then, the report ended abruptly in your mid-sentence. You were talking about Bitcoin and I was finding it very interesting. What happened?

Thank you for this email as well as a number of others from subscribers. I’ve been having some grave difficulties with my recording software over the last two sessions with the microphone ceasing to work mid recording. I’ve been trying to trace the fault all weekend and believe I have solved the problem. I was not aware the microphone was sensitive enough to pick up the Skype ringing and will log out in future when recording. Please accept my apologies for these technical difficulties.
