I've found the car to be a good place to learn because I am terrible at remembering words - goodness knows why as my memory is generally good. I have a little Zoom recorder and recently have been playing and singing the songs into it and then record to cd and then learn as I go (rather than just having a backing track and singing to it). It seems to be working as I've added three songs that I now can do without stabilisers in the last ten days.

However, with safety in mind, before I set off in the morning and put a CD on I carefully check where Tom Bliss is performing so that we don't drive into each other. If he is playing in North Yorkshire I listen to the news.
