    Since reading Cathryn Cook's blog I really do fancy a red Amazona (slimline or mini?), can't decide. They're obviously not produced anymore, but does anyone know a UK supplier that carries old stock please? Also, am I right In thinking that the Osterleys have taken over from Amazona?

      As far as old stock filofaxes are concerned, it might be worth having a look on eBay at seller bouteia . That seller has apparently recently taken over filofax distribution in Belgium, and is clearing out a load of new old stock filofaxes via eBay - because it's within the EU, there wouldn't be any silly import charges to pay.

      Don't know if I'd agree that Osterleys have taken over from Amazona. The leather on an Amazona is very highly embossed - 'puffy', while the Osterley is very smooth and flat, much more like the old Ascot binders.

    I notice a lot of you guys who make your own dividers cover the subject tabs with coloured tape. Can you tell me who makes this and where I can buy it in the UK please?

      It's called Washi Tape and is available is hobby, craft and most stationery shops. Steve Morton is the expert on this, as I recall! :-)

    Can anyone (Steve and Laurie immediately spring to mind) show me where to find the 'grab and link back' code for Plannerisms? I've had a boy's look on the Plannerisms homepage, but can't seem to spot it.

      OK set at the top of the side bar, you can move that widget to where ever you want it in the sidebar.
