Everett wrote in his school journal that he had lots of fun at Violet's sleepover birthday party, and included a picture of him happily sleeping up in the room with all of the girls (he didn't, though - he slept in his own bed that night!)

* I made this notebook cover out of cotton fabrics and cardboard. I also used fleece, to pad the outside, embroidery fabric, embroidery thread and a piece of ribbon.
* Ik heb deze notitieblokhouder gemaakt van katoenen stofjes en karton. Daarnaast heb ik fleece gebruikt, als zachte tussenlaag voor de buitenkant, borduurstof, borduurgaren en een stukje lint.
A notebook (also notepad, writing pad, drawing pad, legal pad, etc.) is a book, usually of paper, of which various uses can be made, including writing, drawing, and scrapbooking. Notebooks can be distinguished along several dimensions and sub-dimensions:
* type of surface
* form factor (size and weight)
* binding and cover material (including printing and graphics)
* pre-printed material on writing surfaces (lines, graphics, text)
The specific dimensions determine the most suitable usage for a given type of notebook.
Binding methods can affect whether a notebook can lie flat when open and whether the pages are likely to remain attached. The cover material is usually distinct from the writing surface material, more durable, more decorative, and more firmly attached. It also is stiffer than the leaves, even taken together. Cover materials should not contribute to damage or discomfort.
It is frequently cheaper to purchase notebooks that are spiral-bound, meaning that a spiral of wire is looped through large perforations at the top or side of the page. Other bound notebooks are available that use glue to hold the pages together; this process is commonly referred to as "padding". Today it is common for pages in such notebooks to include a thin line of perforations that make it easier to tear out the page. Spiral-bound pages can be torn out but frequently leave thin scraggly strips from the small amount of paper that is within the spiral, as well as an uneven rip along the top of the torn-out page. Hard-bound notebooks include a sewn spine, and the pages are not easily removable. Some styles of sewn bindings allow pages to open flat, while others cause the pages to drape.

For our review of Asda notebooks.
Cheap notebooks. Not bad, actually. The gray one had real trouble staying open, but the spiral one is quite handy. Just a bit thick.
Got this cute notebook for my birthday from my mom.
It's small enough to fit in my handbag so I can write down ideas whenever I get them.

Shots of my planner for my blog and all crafty things for this year! part of an old notebook I am determined to fill up this year.
This particular picture is my crap from 2010 going to 2011 i think i used about 15 pages in total! Shameful lol
Here's an oddity: I was having a tidy up in my office, and opened an old briefcase, which had been gathering dust in the corner, meaning to throw away the rubbish, and perhaps re-use the case. I couldn't remember for the life of me what was inside. As I rummaged, this came to hand.
It must date back to my early to mid teens, as the contents are in my rather cramped hand-writing of the time: mainly comprising a list of records which I had heard on the wireless, and which I wanted to find. There are two distinct sections: one of (as one would expect of me) 1950s rock and roll; the other of mainly British dance bands of the 1930s, an enthusiasm that bit me quite hard at the time, courtesy of the late Alan Dell, who presented a programme of dance band and swing music on Monday evenings on Radio 2.
Further on in the book are several pages, probably from around 1977, noting the fuel consumption of my Morris 1000, with petrol prices over the period recorded rising from 79.5 pence to 95.6 pence per gallon. (Bear in mind, however, that the wage for an unskilled chap at the time, doing, say, warehouse work, was around a pound an hour.) Much of the hand-writing is the War Department's.
There is also an anatomical drawing naming the various parts of a horse's rear leg, and noting the equivalent parts of a human leg. This is clearly also hers, as I barely knew one end of a horse from the other.
The design on the cover may be recognisable as having originated from a flow chart stencil, which we were encouraged to have for our school maths classes. Computers, we were told, would be important, and we would have to know how to lay out flow charts, so that a programmer could write the code to make it all happen. (I did actually have to do this once - just once - in the mid-1980s, when my employer at the time had a System 38 mainframe computer system, and we wanted to get it to calculate air cylinder sizes for failsafe operation of pneumatically-powered valves. The formula required an exponential term, which ''wasn't possible'', or so I was told by the computer department. I suggested using infinite series to approximate an answer, and was met with blank stares. It took a while to figure it out, but a couple of days later I gave them a flow chart, they programmed it, and amazingly, it worked first time. I'm not sure who was most surprised: them or me.)
I think I shall put the book up on my office shelf, pending a decision on what to do with it. I doubt that I shall throw it away.
