The new edition to the Filofax Family. Florance the A5 Finsbury

The German Filofax sale was a big disappointment to a lot of us, including me. I too was one of those who ordered the A5 Finchley in Rose and never received it.
But, I don't hold grudges for long and was soon looking for a replacement.
I wanted an A5 Filofax to take to uni to use for making notes in lectures and seminars. It would be a big bonus if it was pink too.

Imy was selling one on her blog so I had a look. A5 Finsbury
It was lovely, and it was pink.
I ummed and aahhed, and finally bought it.
She was called Florance, and was packaged very well for her journey to her new home.

There are a lot of photos from now of her arrival, and the careful unwrapping from my young able assistant, Esmé.



Esmé impatiently awaiting the arrival.



She is here!!!!!!!!



All packaging looked good.



I get to have a quick pose for a photo, then it is back in the hands of my assistant.



Carefully unwrapping her.











The unveiling.


Out she comes.


"Wow, it's beautiful" says Esmé.


Her face says it all.


Just checking through to make sure everything is ok.








Esmé loves the little leaflets that come with Filofaxes.








Flicking through the Dodo-pad.





Checking out the pens that Imy kindly sent.





Putting the first pen in it's loop.


And the second pen.


So there we have it. The arrival of Florence the A5 Finsbury. Another post will be coming soon, as to how I set her up.

The A5 Dodo-Pad Filofax Dilemma

So my dilemma is this. I bought a Filofax off the lovely Imy and inside it had the 2011 Dodo-Pad.







There are many ways this can be used as a diary. Imy did this Dodo-Pad Review

This is the example given in the Dodo-Pad.






As I intended to use the Filofax for my uni notes, having names across the top wasn't going to work for me.
So I tried it this way.






It seems that this way may work better for me.

So my question to you is this.

Have you got, or had the Dodo-Pad????







How are you, did you use it???

If I can get it to work for me then I will definitely get the 2012 diary.

I would be very interested to know
