Re: New Year's Day-2021 Photos
Does anyone actually have a 2021 Diary? or has the Diary expired with the advent of the "mobile Phone".
100 points for the first original photo taken today of a 2021 personal or Desk Diary!

I do however, have a good friend who still uses a Filofax... And not only uses one but has an absolute passion for them and is heavily involved in their continued manufacture and promotion...

Re: New Year's Day-2021 Photos
I frequently forget what day it is. Mostly it doesn't matter.
Woke up at 03:00 in a panic thinking that I had to take the car for my son for work - sometimes he goes in at 05:00 instead of 23:00.
Checked phone messages and he is not in until 23:00 tomorrow. Panic averted, back into the realm of Ipnos.

Re: New Year's Day-2021 Photos
Having it works both ways, if I say "I am out on Thursday" the reply is "put it in the diary". If I say "Are you in on Thursday" the reply is "check in the diary" So all you have to do is book up your appointments first and there are no arguments!!

Re: New Year's Day-2021 Photos
I have to admit to using the phone for suchlike.
It then reminds me - If I happen to be anywhere near it and it hasn't turned itself off.
Sometimes it even reminds me at a suitable moment. Other times a few days early and inevitably there are occasions when it is a couple of days late.
Eldest daughters family have one of these 'app' things and a communal diary so they all know what each other are doing and when.
Sounds good in theory.

Re: New Year's Day-2021 Photos
Yes, I have a pocket diary. As I have done for the last goodness knows how many years. Seven days per two pages.
We also have a wall calendar with space for writing on. Not one of these stupid ones with a large photo and no space for notes! In addition I print out an A3 year planner.
Mind you there's not much to put on anything yet!
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.
