Somehow I am still not convinced that it's an efficient use of my time and money... But then my planning needs are not so far off from what is available to buy and small hacks such as adding note paper pages alternating between diary pages for more detailed task lists do the trick for me. I do punch my own note paper though, it's the 'printing, sourcing nice printing paper, buying a better printer, constantly getting new cartridges'- part, that puts me off it. But what I have done in the past is getting a soft cover notebook planner punched and spine cut in an office supply shop. that is brilliant because you can remove unnecessary pages easily and old diary pages as you go through your year.
