  1. Hi all; long time since I have been here. Still busy using a5 and personal Filofax. Would like to experiment with compact Filofax personal. Preferably without clasp. Anyone having tips for not so expensive second hand ones in theNetherlands? Greetings Dulance

    1. Have you tried ebay? I'm in the Uk so not sure if that would be helpful in your location. The Finsbury Slimline is a very slick professional looking model if you can find one in good condition, and the Holborn Slimline has an abundance of pockets and can even double as a wallet for cards and banknotes.

  2. I stumbled upon this Washington Post article from 1995 “The Filo-Facts of Life”. It describes the job of a Filofax “Personal Trainer” who bounces across the US to match-make people with the right organizer and inserts. What a time to be alive.. a fun little read!

    1. What a great article. Fahrney's is where I bought my first Filofax (pocket Windsor). It was through their mail order catalog, but it was still from Fahrney's. Thanks for sharing!
