Lovely new planner

The time is approaching for my new 2024 diary .
I'm a paper person and I like a monthly spread, a weekly view, and places for making notes and to do lists as well as sections to record birthdays, random musings and stick tickets in etc. I'm a one book for everything type. What's your favourite planner/diaries?

Oh me too OP...will be back to see what people recommend!

Watching too!

Oh this sounds interesting. I have a week to view diary for appointments, social engagements, school dates etc, then another for Things I Need To Do This Week (can be anything from paying a bill to ringing the vets to remembering to hoover!) Also have another for my parents finances which I deal with. Having everything in one place would be great but I always feel that kind of diary/planner would have to be huge A4 size at least.

I have this one and buy the calendar insert from Amazon. The planner itself has space for letters, appointment cards.

I'm roughly £7 a year to buy the calendar insert from Amazon.

My daughter likes the Intelligent Change productivity planner, they’ve got a Black Friday sale on the website atm.

Plum Paper Planner is amazing. They're customizable so you can add extra sections you need.

crochetmonkey74 · 14/11/2023 18:30

Ooh some lovely ideas here . I have thought of the Papier ones before but they don't have room for weekly lists

I love planners ànd filofax,s.
Trouble is I'm so boring iv got nothing to put in one

Happygerbil · 14/11/2023 18:39

Have a look at Mum's diary. Cringey name but brilliant diaries. Lots of room for notes.

TropDrôle · 14/11/2023 18:41

I got the pink polka dot Filofax one for 2024. I love it!

MaliciaKeys · 14/11/2023 18:42

I’ve got two Filofaxes, a pocket size one and a personal planner. I use the pocket one for work related projects and the bigger one is for family stuff. I got the six ring binders for each from charity shops, both never used.

Sprinkles211 · 14/11/2023 18:48

Fox planners mine is my life saver

Dweetfidilove · 14/11/2023 18:48

The Mum’s diary for a few years when my daughter was younger. More recently a refillable tiny Filofax.

Squirrelblanket · 14/11/2023 18:50

I've been researching this intensely and my current favourite is the Pareto planner, closely followed by the Fox pro weekly planner.

Star11111 · 14/11/2023 18:50

I use the boxclever press family planner. I love all the columns and week views for the full family and separate columns for work, home, children, food, sports etc

Badbadbunny · 14/11/2023 18:51

I still use a good old Filofax. Used to use one in the old days, but then moved onto computer, but hated it, so went back to Filofax a few years ago.

Ponderingwindow · 14/11/2023 18:52

I used a Hobonichi weeks for years. This year I’m in a Hobonichi cousin.

I’m not hooked. I’m thinking of branching out.

ChocolateCinderToffee · 14/11/2023 18:53

The Folio Society do a lovely diary and last year I got one free when I bought a book from them. I don't know if this happens every year, to be fair.

Typecast · 14/11/2023 18:53

Hobonichi Cousin or Hobonichi Weeks depending on your size preference. A little pricy but I swear by both of them.

LightSpeeds · 14/11/2023 18:56

I have a Clever Fox Planner. Lovely thick paper - I love it.

Eloffle · 14/11/2023 19:06

Boxclever press

I think I got one from tkmaxx but they're on Amazon too and good value for about £10.

I am fussy about having space for a weekly to do list and a monthly view and they have it (or at least some of them do!) Tk maxx / homesense are good for a browse of a few different brands.

I put reminders in my phone but need a paper diary for appointments etc. I cause chaos if I try to add them to my iPhone calendar!

honeyfox · 14/11/2023 19:16

Paperblanks diaries are fantastic, been using them for years. You can choose the size, layout etc.
