As I Xi It

Looks like Cici is quite fond of my overpriced diary with elaborate felt covering. He kinda engulfs the whole thing when he’s sitting on it. I hope he doesn’t leave it smelling of kitty poo. Eeewww.

I’m staring at my jazzed up Moleskine diary. It’s looks pretty neat. I’m still bummed about paying £10 for the diary iself. I jumped on the ‘net and had a look at what other diaries for a tenner there were which I could’ve got.

One of the alternatives of note were the diaries by Ciak. Soft cover, Italian bonded leather and with a horizontal elastic band rather than a verticle one. I remember handling one in Paperchase the other day, quite nice, oozes quality and looks like its worth way more than a tenner. I think I’ll get that one next year. It’s nicer than this Moleskine, oh well.

For my upcoming trip to South Africa, I might get a Ciak notebook and use it as my travel journal.
