Sad you feel the need to do that.

It would have been much better if it had matched the colour of the filofax. As it is, it stands out as sore thumb which is such a pity because other than that it seems like a very good everyday planner.Camillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08832221422797705456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5111202421486402803.post-29237710534816754322013-05-11T18:01:07.418+01:002013-05-11T18:01:07.418+01:00Thanks everyone for the lovely comments, The colo...Thanks everyone for the lovely comments, The colour is VERY bright, I have it stood oh my Filofax Shelf and it REALLY stands out.

I like the simplicity of this binder and if I was after an a5 to use as a notebook for uni etc I might be tempted but I don't see a red one so that's a deal breaker!

I have to admit that I initially thought 'Oh, nonono' when I saw them on Philofaxy, because it had so few card pockets and seemed too floppy ... but I recon that with a card holder full of cards at the back, both problems will be solved! So I have just ordered a patent pink one, I just love the colour and hope the patent shine stands up to a bit of wear. Strange that they have gone for the Flex type jot pad instead of the proper pre punched notepad?

I owned a Success Choice binder with very similar construction and found it lacked adequate structure in the covers to allow me to write easily in my lap when sitting or in my hand when standing. This eventually became a deal breaker for me. <br /><br />But, I might need to buy a green one. I've longed for a classic green filo for ages. <br /><br />Really superb post. Makes the binder look fantastic. Filofax should have you do their product presentation!Josh LaPortehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16772883862662679235noreply@blogger.com
