DescriptionEwka begins ( 0-8,5 min) and Churuma answers (8,5-15 min.). The sound quality is low epecially between 11 and 13 min. Please note that every sentence (appr.1 sec. long) is interrupted by the opponent´s murmuring "Oho", which is -unfortunately- hardly hearable on the tape except under Churuma's speech (8,5 min.----), where Ewka is answering "Oho" at every sentence.
