Best of luck with your health. When I was an infant I nearly died from respiratory problems. My parents credit the coincidence of the doctor being in the neighborhood playing cards for my living through my worst crisis. There's always light on the other side of trouble. My near death experience was in 1957. Please note the calendar can lie. It might seem I'm old, yet I still enjoy my dirt bike and throwing caution to the winds. Be well! Interesting Filofax, by the way.
As always, thank you for another fantastic video Neil. I watched this one twice and waited to comment...I wish I could convey so much more regarding your health. But know that you've certainly become a modern day friend, one connected by internet and Filofax! But still, a friend. Always love and thanks from over here ❤🇦🇺❤
I agree the older models of Filofax are better construction/quality generally - even with the leather issue you mentioned in some models. I have a guildford extra slim personal and it’s only just starting to crack on the inside ring area… I’m trying to condition it and spot the cracking in its tracks - not sure it’s working 😅 I hope you feel better soon - all my best to you! ❤
I refuse to believe that inside is really made of genuine leather. Probably just some leatherette. I have had chairs made from that and they had the same flaking issue after some time. Never happened with the real stuff.
To be fair, I don't think it's leather either. personally, I think it would be much better if Filofax just used full thickness leather, so that no lining would actually be required.
@@Flatability Yes, I do not think the minute production cost increase would or should bring a huge end price increase anyway, but who knows. On the other side, though, I have just received a cheap basic unbranded A5 faux leather binder from Aliexpress that I intend to use for house chores and other stuff, but what amazes me is that the rings on this particular one are absolutely amazing. No gaps, no misalignment and just enough tension. And of course, it lays flat all the way. So there should be no excuses when it comes to why certain parts of the "known personal organizer brand" are hit or miss. This cost me about 8€ with shipping LOL.
This is so interesting, because I'm about to review a cheap ring based system that I bought very cheaply on Amazon. Surprisingly good. As a channel member, you'll get to see my review quite soon.
A good quality personal organiser in most repects, but with the all too common issue of flaking leather inside.
Available, briefly, around 2002.
Hope you feel better soon. Hugs from Sweden.
Thank you!

Thank you for your positive thoughts.
Thanks for the review. The interior 'leather' really is a shame, I'll be avoiding this particular model I think.
Wishing you the best of health!

I'm very interested in your attempts to slow down the deterioration of the leather.
Thank you for your kind words.
Sorry to hear you have not been well. What type of operation you need to have? 🌸 I wish you well x
