Guest Post - A Time Organiser by Toby

 Thank you to Toby for contacting us with details of a recent find

Hello organiser enthusiasts. I found this beauty hiding on a shelf in a local charity shop.

I couldn't identify it at first, until eventually, after a convoluted search around the web, I discovered Time/System organisers and from there I found a reference to 'A' Time on this blog.

The binder had various inserts within it that seem to be a mix of FiloFax, 'A' time and maybe some other brand. 

My feeling is that it's a Time/System binder with 'A' time inserts. I'm guessing its something to do with the book 'A' time by James Noon. 

It's quite a heavy A5 binder in leather with Koloman Handler rings. It has got two pen loops and quite a wide fastening strap. I have attached some pics. It is a bit mysterious and I really like it.

Thank you Toby, this is a great find. You should be able to find a copy of the book 'A Time - Busy Managers Action Plan for Self Management' on one of the used bookstores on line.

  3. This is a real find. It's not a TimeSystem binder - they have a distinctive TS metal logo on the front, but what I *think* it is, is a binder from the short period of time when Filofax Time Management systems were using the A Time concept and adapted layouts under licence from James Noon.

    JN was kind enough to send me a signed copy of the book he wrote to underpin the concepts (not the system or course manual), Start Time Forward, which I still have and refer to often.
