Well off I go to The Beef Australia Expo in Rockhampton The Beef Capital Of Australia.

Wow what a day got a live spot on the local radio and a half hour of poetry on the main stage at lunch time a good crowd on hand but not much shade.

The only downer was that it took 2 hours to get to the site on a trip that normally takes 30 minutes soooooo much traffic and sooooo many Akubra hats lol.


Back again on Thursday to do it all again. I really think performance is my forte must be all the bullshit that I talk,


Cheers . Bob

Oh Stephen the stage was about twenty metres back from where all the patrons were sitting mainly because the chairs in front were all out in the sun.


Hopefully they will take my suggestion and put some umbrellas down there asap.

As I told the organiser poets like to see the whites of their eyes so that we can interact. Well at least I do.
