Reporter's notepad

10 x 15cm* A convenient size. Big enough for clear notes, small enough to carry around.

Spiral bound from top Pages turn easily and never get lost, dropped or mixed up.

Firm sheet of card as the back page You will often have to take notes and speak standing up. Try doing either of these with a floppy notepad!

Plain pages, or with lines or squares as feint [sic] as possible

What you write must be clearly visible on the paper you are using.

Write on one side of the paper only. The order of the pages gets very confusing if you don't

Writes quickly, smoothly, clearly and quietly.

Some interpreters use pencils but fountain pens, felt tips and roller balls are a No-No. They are slow to write with, and prone to running out and smudging.

Several spares If it can run out it will. Bring a spare, or two!

The ink must be clearly visible on the paper you are using.
