Paul the Pastor, from Surrey
"My name is Paul. I'm a Pastor of a church in Surbiton, Surrey. I've been using Mark & Fold diaries for 3 years now and find them so helpful for planning and recording working and private hours. I write "To Do" lists in coloured Tempo pens each day and I use stickers for things that are transferable to another week and put them in the nice space on the left side. The colour code is simple: Blue = personal, Yellow = pastoral, Orange = preparation, Green = padmin (pastoral administration), Red = public."
Caroline the writer, from Canada via Berlin
"I use the dotted area at the bottom of the page to log the films I've been watching."
Amy, founder and creative director of Mark+Fold
"I start with the sort of 'headline' events running along the top: that's birthdays, travel, any all-day things. Then I put in scheduled meetings and appointments and I write the time and locate them roughly where they would fall in the day, so a 9am meeting will be towards the top, a 7pm dinner would be towards the bottom of the lined section (though I don't count line by line). I love the tick list Note Block, so I often have one of those at the bottom and I like that I can be a bit more scribbly on there as I know it can be removed or replaced. I sometimes use the left hand column for priorities, other weeks I might leave that blank. Overall, I enjoy the finite amount of space on the page — unlike my digital diary, you simply cannot over-write multiple events in the same time slot, which I think is quite healthy!"
