Digging back in to the archive: How many do you own?


During a recent discussion, the topic of 'Filofax organisers, how many do you own' came up. 

Back when I first started here on Philofaxy I think I only had two or three, now the figure is considerably more than that. But if I work on the basis that I bought the first one in 1986, the average is considerably lower than if I base the start date on 2009!!! 

The discussion reminded me of this post: Filofax Organisers, how many do you own?

There is a link to a spreadsheet that you can download to help you calculate how many 'Philofaxy Organisers' you own. 

A Philofaxy is a new unit of counting based on the page size. An A4 is equal to 1, and A5 is 0.5 etc. I've not checked recently but I think I have about 23 Philofaxy Units of organisers in my cupboards.... 

I have added ring size in to the equation to give more detail as well as page size... that should bring the final figure down a little bit more.... less embarrassing that way! 

And for information, the photo above was taken/created in 2014, I don't own some of the organisers shown in the image any more, plus others have joined 'the collection' since then. 

As you can imagine it takes quite a bit of logistics to take a photograph of the whole collection given that this is five images stitched together!! I need to repeat the exercise one day. 

The spreadsheets: 

Remember, this is only a bit of fun, so please don't take it too seriously!
