Thanks to @Cutlasshound for speedy delivery and a great transaction!

Nice fit mahlon, how'd you size?

Thanks again @KEVINSTEED , another deal done!

@KEVINSTEED Next day delivery and easy communication. Hero!

Found this at the Levi's store in Glasgow. Buy a jacket and they'll give you a patch for free, apparently.

There's a lot of debate about the paper quality of moleskine vs. field notes or other cheaper environmentally sourced notepads but the quality of moleskine and their simplicity has always suited me just fine. Sometimes you just got to stick with what you like.

I've tried many diary types over the years, paper and digital, but I think I've hit a middle ground by using a wall calendar, pocket diary and cahier in unison.

Wall calendar keeps me up to date with my shifts, events with friends and family, and allows me to quickly find out what days my partner will be home early, at work late or at a function. We tried using a synced google calendar on our phones but entering data and changing dates and events just got irritating and was just clunky for our communication. I'd rather just scribble on the calendar and score it out if need be.

I've always loved Moleskine diaries and project books and my pocket diary and cahier stay in my bag or jacket if I'm at work or out and about. My diary keeps me up to date on day to day activities (I tend to be very unproductive if I don't have a list of to-do's even on days off) and helps me plan for future birthdays and family outings, while keeping me straight with work duties and projects. The cahier fits into the back of the diary without adding much bulk at all and I slide it out for notes.

If I'm out with friends then the cahier is the perfect size to stay behind my wallet or in a front pocket, and is my scribble book. Anything that needs noted down or considered, any thoughts or ideas I have when out and about or if I need to give someone my number or email, quick scribble and tear out the back page, sorted.

I try online services but I find I just forget to update them because they're too clunky. The one problem with paper is needing a pen. I use Pilot G2's and previously Stabilo point88's because they write well on paper and dry quickly, but I can never find a small pen that will fit in my diary or a pocket and that I wont loose. If I'm penless then my system is scuppered unfortunately!

Here's a few of my previous diaries and a current project book:

Nursing my wounds in my 666D's

Always wear a helmet people! The one time in two years I didn't, I went over the handlebars!

@innerlogic Thanks for the Ande Whalls and the shirt! Received today after UK customs had their way with them!

Great guy to deal with, many thanks!

I cant believe people are making fakes of this many big denim brands. Apart from IH taking a hit and these guys making a fast buck off of people who don't know any better, it bothers me that the people physically producing these will almost certainly be getting a poor wage to make them.

Too many friends coming back from holiday with cheap Gucci sunglasses, CK suits and £5 Converse. If you're getting it that cheap, and they're willing to sell it that cheap on the streets, then someone must be getting screwed somewhere along the line of production.

This thing looks awesome!

Repping @den1mhead for a smooth transaction and postage so fast it got here in near enough twelve hours.

Beat that Amazon Prime. Happy days!

The sulphur pigment overdye process we all know and love, can it be done at home in some way? I have plans…

Glasgow, London, Naples, Venice, Munich and Nuremberg I'm coming for all of you!

IH patch in its rightful place.

New to me! I'm considering doing a Keeley mod but for now I'm just playing around, finding tones when they come. I would love a bass big muff pi for my bass guitar too.

Stomping on this tonight. 666D.

Yeah I keep missing it too!

Skull Rider too quick to catch!

@ronbiggles and @lamdog123 are again great people to deal with. Fast postage and very thorough with their descriptions. Lovely to deal with.
