G'day all,

Did I mention that Wayne bought me an 'iPod Touch' for my birthday. It is the size of a medium sized mobile phone. This means for most people it fits comfortably in your hand. You can down load your poems from your computer. I have tried at a small venue, using this as a prompt, so that I would not forget my words. I found that I was looking at it even when I didn't need it, because I knew it was in my hand, with the poem displayed. If I had it in my pocket, just in case it would be better.

And yes, I too have seen many polished performer forget their words, or even start the wrong stanza and have to go back. It does break the 'mood' but we are all only human.
