| Journal pages - thank you to Daniel |
It is time to enjoy a few blog posts from around the internet, grab a drink and make yourself comfortable for our weekly round-up.Today is David Attenborough's 100th birthday! A very Happy Birthday to Sir David!
In honor of his lifetime of sharing with us the wonders of wildlife of the world, let's talk about wildlife and Filofax organisers!
I am very lucky to live in an area with fantastic wildlife and nature. I love to record in my daily pages any wildlife sightings, flowers blooming, when the leaves start turning each autumn, etc. My favourite birds are oystercatchers, which come inland to nest in the fields around our house. Each February I make a note of the first oystercatcher sighting near us, and each August I note the last sighting of these adorable birds when they go back to the coasts to winter over.
Do you make any wildlife or nature notes in your Filofax pages?
And as always on Fridays, feel free to ask and/ or discuss anything ring binder organiser related!
We have been 'on-the-road' for over two weeks in different parts of England seeing family and friends, some we haven't seen in more than three decades <gulp>. Yes we have all aged gracefully, retired, become grand parents etc!!
Therefore I've been a bit stretched to produce meaningful post for you this last week. A poor excuse I know!
My planning and journalling set up during trips like this has been my Filofax Lockwood Zip and a Filofax Flex with a simple lined notebook inside.
Both of them have the benefit of being compact and whilst travelling I like the zip closure as it keeps things more secure.
The Lockwood Zip does lay reasonably flat though. It's the best for 'flatability' out of the few 'zip' organisers that I own.
You will find my review of the A5 and Personal Zip from back in 2014 here.

We start the journey back to home in France tomorrow (Friday) arriving home by early afternoon on Saturday. Normal service will hopefully resume next week!
A massive thank you to GMax for scanning in this historical catalogue from Filofax (Norman and Hill) from 1955. I wasn't even born!
