Free For All Friday - No. 645 by Steve

For over 27 years I've been a volunteer for the Radio Society of Great Britain, helping other radio amateurs in UK gain extra facilities on their radio licence. I did a YouTube Live-Stream this week for people wanting to know about the application process that I administer.

The documents they receive have an expiry date on them, normally 12 or 36 months from the issue date. I was asked last night if we sent out reminders before the permission document expires, which we do. However, some people never seem to receive them, but it is ultimately their responsibility to apply for renewal before it expires..

This was my opportunity to get in a little plug about using a planner or setting an alarm in the calendar on your phone! I don't need to ask you if you record reminders for things like that in your organiser, or do I?

Of course it is Friday so please feel free to discuss anything organiser related. Have a great weekend.

Inventing a New Page Size

It seems there is no limit to people inventing new page sizes for ring bound organisers, first we had 'Personal Wide' which is just an imperial sized B6 size, and more recently 'Pocket Plus' a slightly bigger version of Pocket.

Common to both of these is they retain the same size and ring spacing that they are derived from, which is about the only sensible thing to be said really.

Today's challenge should you accept it, is to invent a new page size, it can be in mm or inches I don't mind either.

However, I will set the ground rule that it must use one of the existing ring sizes/ring spacings.

A4 - 4 rings at 80mm spacing
A5 - 25, 30 or 35mm ring size
A6 - 20, 25 or 30mm ring size
Personal - 13, 25 or 30mm ring size
Pocket - 16, 20 or 25mm ring size
Mini - 11mm ring size

You will see I've ruled out Deskfax size and M2 rings, mainly because the ring mechanisms are not readily available these days.

That said you could use Deskfax (B5) with a 4 ring A4 mechanism, just!!

What would you call your new page size? Break all the rules... because everyone else has!

Philofaxy A5.... what size is that?
