Notebooks? No, definitely not. I can walk past Paperchase and WH Smith's without feeling the need to be drawn in ....

@Hannah – pens, yes I am addicted to those too!

@olive I know Moleskine notebooks, but I have never been tempted enough to buy one. One reason might be that I like spiral notebooks best, the other reason is that they are hugely overpriced. I have held the New York city notebook in my hands a couple of times though! :)

@grigorisgirl: Rymans is heaven for me too. Pens, markers, paper, envelopes, postcards – I should not go there! And Ordning & Reda – pricey but beautiful things!

I’m a sucker for stationery full stop. Show me a Rymans and I’m in heaven and in Guildford Ordning & Reda are fabulous.

Handbags and pens. With handbags they need to be big enough for a notebook or reading book but small enough that I don’t gain rubbish in it. I bought one in Portabello at the beginning of May and apart from using my rucksack at Drayton Manor I’ve used it nearly everyday – I think it’s a record – maybe I need to clear out some others.

Pens – I find that I struggle to write with some pens and so I’ll buy a sealed pack of pens and then find it’s really uncomfortable or doesn’t write very well so they get put away and forgotten about. Once in a while I clear out and get rid of a whole bunch. (the good thing about swap-bot is that I can put nearly new or rarely used pens in my swaps so it’s kinda recycling in a way)
