Vintage Pocket Filofax on eBay
Every once in a while, I get this weird impulse to search for vintage Filofaxes on eBay. I bought one about a year ago and haven’t gotten around to reviewing (or using) it yet. In fact, I haven’t used a Filofax actively in at least 15 years. But I still love them, and as with … Continue reading Vintage Pocket Filofax on eBay

I originally wrote the post below in October 2008 and GeorgieR’s notebook is still one of my favorite “Other People’s Notebooks” posts. I love the density of the pages and the wear on the Filofax binder. Seeing notebooks like this always makes me … Continue reading Revisiting the Past: GeorgieR’s Filofax (2008)

They are the first things I would try to save if … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Susannah Conway

This week’s addict has a You Tube Channel called A Sort of Interesting Life, where he posts a lot of videos about living on a narrowboat, for the most part, but he’s also quite interested in pens and notebooks.
