It can be whatever you want it to be. Its flexibility is unmatched, and it always has the classic, cool, classy look that Filofax is known for. Really, what's not to like? However you use it, it's great.<BR/><BR/>Anonymous, I would LOVE to hear howAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-84870327396537344682009-01-07T04:23:00.000-05:002009-01-07T04:23:00.000-05:00Thanks - I know the original chronology is in the ...Thanks - I know the original chronology is in the Internet Archive but it does need some improvement and I hope to publish the improved one soon :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-67225053889773935442009-01-06T12:39:00.000-05:002009-01-06T12:39:00.000-05:00Oops - my link got chopped, but it's on the post h...Oops - my link got chopped, but it's on the post here so hope y'all can find your way there if you're interested!

It's quite reassuring to know that the people who worked inside the company felt it's change of direction in the early 90s wasn't a positive one. Personally I shouldn't have to ask myself why I carry a 15 years old Filofax binder but they don't make anything I would choose to buy now.<BR/><BR/>When I closed down my Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-86572508602881095782009-01-06T03:34:00.000-05:002009-01-06T03:34:00.000-05:00Not really, Anonymous! :)Firstly, I'm a "recoverin...Not really, Anonymous! :)<BR/><BR/>Firstly, I'm a "recovering perfectionist" so need one area to let my insanity run wild and free... the day in 2006 when I meticulously hand-made tabbed dividers printed onto parchment-coloured card for my Personal Ffx comes to mind, but it was all time well spent because I enjoy them to this day.<BR/><BR/>I added my own names for the sections and put photos of Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-18458692903372698032008-12-27T19:55:00.000-05:002008-12-27T19:55:00.000-05:00Okay.

If like me, you are allured by the "six punch at one time" hole punch, you may be relieved to know that it is not necessary. It is a quite appealing thought to completely reinvent the wheel, but it is not necessary. Buy the the white sheets. No lines, completely blank. Use your imagination.
