Ah okay thanks :smile:

. I don't mind about quality it's just to carry some pens/pencils to uni haha. I usually just stick them in my bag, but then I spend FOREVER searching in my bag for a pen! So I'd rather keep them somewhere where I can get it more easier haha

oh yeah haha, i bought one from pound shop and the zip kinda ripped becoz it got stuck and i tried to yank it (so probs my fault) :colondollar:

but now ive got one from tescos and it was only like 80-90p so (:

I have finally decided on my organisation system.
I have 5 oxford notepads, one in each colour. Purely for stability over a refill pad.
Just ordered 5 lever arches from wh smiths. The frosted one, and in matching colours with the Oxford notebooks.
Going to nip to hobbycraft at some point and buy 5 Kraft style elasticised a4 pouches, and customise these, along with the notebooks colour.
This means I take notebook and folder to lecture, and file in lever arch when done with topic. I am also thinking this means diary coordination with each colour meaning an event for a certain module.

This thread is a bad influence. Also just purchased a Lamy logo from smiths, and refills from cultpens, along with a box of 12 energel pens for grandma, because I am a nice granddaughter :biggrin:

Customisation day tomorrow though of my stationary box and filofax. Exciting exciting times. Shame this all means I have to stay organised at uni :tongue:

Suggestions for coloured pens?
I intend on using them for maths: writing one line in say, blue and the next in green etc

I sorted through all my stationery stuff today and now I have it all tucked safely into a box :3 Also found more sticky notes that I didn't know I had aha!

I really need to buy some more notepads, so when I'm in town on Tuesday I'm going to nip to Tesco and get a couple more. I can't wait to start University just so I can start using all this stuff! XD

The bic 4 ways and 2 colours are all on offer in tesco. Might be more practical as well as you don't have to switch pens :tongue:

The sign said they were on sale, but the cheapest I'd seen them for was £6 before that so I snapped them up anyway :biggrin:

I just spent the better part of an hour or two reading through this thread and what an excellent thread it is!!!! I thought this offer ought to be posted here, link, as I hadn't seen it here. The pen is a great pen, and for three tins of J Herbin ink for just £10, it's a decent bargain, nothing special of course but worth looking at. The three tins only contain six cartridges each but they allow you to choose the ink colours.
