  5. First organiser - not 100% sure but probably one marked “EML M5-73-13” - compact personal size in black.
    First Filofax - a black 3CL (slimline personal).
    Both still in use after 40 years.

  8. Well, since 'organiser' now ranges to A4, I guess it would have to be A4 ring binders at college... Or A5 ring binders manual binders re-used.

    But my first 'organiser' was a corporate L'Oreal Pocket, in purple suede, bought cheap on eBay.

    And my first Filofax, a NOS Pocket P5KLF, in black. Also eBay, and cheaper than the cheap L'Oreal ..
