Free For All Friday - No 584 by Steve

Our first daffodil came in to flower this week... Daffodils in January always seems a little mad to me. But that is one of the side effects of living a bit further south than we used to I guess.

Do you record the weather and other events that happened in your garden so you can compare one year to the next?

Of course it is Friday so feel free to discuss anything organiser related.

The Podcast

Today you should have been able to listen to the next episode of the podcast, but when I was doing the final edit of the audio files yesterday I noticed a problem with my side of the audio, which I have not been able to correct. So we will have to re-record that episode. Sadly this happens from time to time.

Instead I thought I would give you a bit of an update on where we are with the podcast.

What am I talking about? "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Plannerverse" podcast, yes it's a bit of a take on 'The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy' by the late great Douglas Adams.

I mentioned the idea of the name to Karine one day and it has stuck because we haven't thought of anything better!

We have been 'broadcasting' since February 2016, with 96 episodes published already and a few more in the pipeline to be recorded in the coming weeks as time allows.

If you haven't discovered the Podcast yet, you can listen on line to each one using a variety of methods, each one holds all of the previous episodes:

• Mixcloud 
• Philofaxy direct download
• 

You don't have to go back to the first one, we have tried to make each one a complete episode and we attempt to avoid mentioning when it was recorded, so you can dip in to and listen to them in any order and listen to just the episodes that interest you. 

Become a Patron! 

We have a Patreon page for people to be able to donate a small amount of money or more if they wish. The money helps to support the podcast team (Karine and Steve) and the money is used to pay for services we use to publish the podcast episodes as well as equipment and service updates to keep the quality of the podcast as high as possible.

We are giving Patrons some exclusive content and the ability to listen to new episodes a few days earlier than others. We will always keep them free to listen to generally. But the subscription income helps us to keep the podcast 'advert free' without advert breaks and annoying 'plugs' for non-relevant companies.

If you have any ideas for future episodes even if it is a topic we might have previously discussed please email podcast at philofaxy dot com  and the email will find its way to Karine and Steve.

Thank you everyone for your continued support.

We are here to answer your questions.

Make today the one day you post a comment or a question.

It is Tuesday after all so fire away with any questions and comments.

The Return of the Filofax Mini?

A few people spotted that Filofax Japan had shared some photos of new colours for the Filofax Malden on line.

Looking in to this even closer we noticed that they included the Mini size. Something that disappeared in other markets a couple of years ago.

Here are the photos from Instagram.

There is a Filofax Japan on-line store but it is all in Japanese naturally.

However, Amazon Japan can be viewed in English, with some interesting translations! The Malden Mini is available for 13200 Yen (about £92)

Will these also appear in UK, Europe and USA? We will have to wait and see I suspect.

Would you use a Mini if they became available again?

Reader Review?

Someone emailed me today offering to send a guest post about the Clipbook Personal size.

I only saw the notification on my phone screen whilst we were in a restaurant.

However, when I got home this afternoon I can't find any trace of the email, I've checked all folders on the philofaxy at gmail dot com account

Can you please resend your email, sorry I don't even know the name of the person.
