MeePlus Slimpad Binders & Paper Excellent quality. Binders may last a lifetime. “Lightweight” paper (similar to Tomoe River) — no bleed-through but some show-through. Thicker paper: no bleed-through and minimal show-through. ➡️ https://mee-plus.com/? NB Planner Diary Inserts Not quite as fountain pen friendly as Filofax versions, but next year's diary is available 12 months ahead — which Filofax doesn’t currently offer. ➡️ https://amzn.to/400zgUC (Amazon UK) Silvine Memo Books Sensational paper, and inexpensive. Almost the same size as Filofax Personal. ➡️ https://amzn.to/3ORWw4I (Amazon UK) Pilot G2 1.0mm Smooth, bold line with zero fuss — ideal if you like a confident, saturated stroke. ➡️ https://amzn.to/46Z7TOu (Amazon UK) ➡️ https://amzn.to/4r5gOVT (Amazon US) Pilot V7 Good fine line for when space is tight. I’ve used them for over 30 years. ➡️ https://amzn.to/3P4fTaJ (Amazon UK) ➡️ https://amzn.to/3OuCsp7 (Amazon US) Personal Size Storage Binders Good enough for archiving, and cheap, with surprisingly good lay-flat performance. ➡️ https://amzn.to/4r0r7uh (Amazon UK) Treasury Tags Excellent for archiving (and many other uses). Very inexpensive. I recommend the 51mm (2 inch) version, as shown in the video. ➡️ https://amzn.to/4sj3VIQ (Amazon UK) Comments are moderated to keep things family friendly, so there will be a short delay (typically under 24 hours) before your comment appears.
