M&S Family Organiser

[goldensilver]

I get these every year and find them the only calandra that I can fit everything on, great layout, handy pen attached etc.

This years one however is different layout, no spiral bound hanger, no thick cardboard backboard, no pen.

I completely understand and agree with the need to not use plastic, however the only plastic was on the pen which could have been easily taken away and nothing else changed. Seems poorer quality and retailing at the same price.

Anyway it is what it is.

Any recommendations for a good quality spiral bound family organiser?

I have this one. Ignore the ugly front cover which thankfully goes straight to the back. Great layout, robust, good quality paper, perforated weekly shopping list, shiftable plastic overlay for weekly stuff - although I find is gets in the way and have ditched it. The included pen is suitable for the overlay but the nip is useless for writing on the paper, so I've switched it out for my own.

Obviously I'm only a week in but I like it.

Nip=nib.

Boxclever press is where I always get mine. Available on Amazon now.

Oh perfect, that's exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you.

Busy B have various types of family calendar. I've used them for years. The one I has last year had a pen

My SIL gets me a Busy B one every year! Love it.

I like the Busy B ones too. Always get one with the pockets etc for each month. I find it so useful for storing tickets, invitations etc.

I like boxclever calendars, I like the spaces to write all the activities on. Been using them for the the last few years, before that it was the Flylady calendars which were expensive from USA.

Thanks everyone - will look into them all.

I absolutely love the "Mum's Office" diaries and weekly planner/calendar. They are the only things I ask for every year for Christmas. Absolutely amazing and loads of space for the whole family!

I agree. I've had the M&S version for years (other than the year they printed Father's Day or something on the wrong date and withdrew the lot from sale)

This year they were rubbish. I think I ended up with a Winnie the Pooh M&S thing.
