Today's post contains 2019 versions of my layouts for the popular Field Notes format.

Here we go.

1. Week on two pages



The week on two pages layout gives you a straightforward planning view, a week at a time. You'll need two booklets for a full year.

  2019 Letter version: H1  H2

The daily log book is ideal for tracking daily activities - exercise, say, or diet - even Pokemon

Special offer

Maybe you prefer not to print your own. I will print and bind a 2019 daily log book for you at a cost of £5, including postage to anywhere in the world. It will have a printed card cover that looks like this:


If you want to take advantage of this offer, email me
(ray.blake@gmail.com) and we can make arrangements.


What you'll download each time is a file that is ready to print straight away, without any need to use booklet format on your printer. Just print this straight to A4 or Letter paper, with duplex set to flip on the short edge (I'd recommend you print just one or two pages first to make sure your printer deals with this correctly and make adjustments as necessary.)

Once you've printed out the pages, you can bind them into a booklet and cut to size using these instructions:




Remember, though, that for this size you meed to cut down to 90 mm wide rather than 110 mm and you'll have to trim 35 mm from the top and from the bottom as well, leaving you a booklet 140 mm tall.

Free Midori TN calendar (diary) inserts for 2019: Part 1 - Full size weekly layouts

There are those people who like to start their new year planning early. If you're one of them, you've come to the right place.

In a series of posts I will present the full set of all available layouts in all available sizes. All will be available for download as A4 and Letter paper PDFs. As ever, they are all free for personal use.

We start today with the suite of weekly diaries.

1. Week to view with tasks




With this layout, you have a choice of colours. You will need to make two booklets to cover a whole year. Some people have a different colour for each half.


 2019 A4 version - Blue:    H1   H2
 2019 A4 version - Green:    H1   H2
 2019 A4 version - Orange:    H1   H2
 2019 A4 version - Red:    H1   H2
 2019 A4 version - Purple:    H1   H2

 2019 Letter version - Blue:    H1   H2
 2019 Letter version - Green:    H1   H2
 2019 Letter version - Orange:    H1   H2
 2019 Letter version - Red:    H1   H2
 2019 Letter version - Purple:    H1   H2


2. Week on two pages - purist layout




This layout is for people who want a very traditional layout, dedicating the maximum possible space to each day.

Again, you will need both halves to make up a full year.


 2019 A4 version:    H1   H2
 2019 Letter version:    H1   H2


3. Week to a page - purist layout




Based on the week on two pages purist layout, this places a week on each stage in the same style. The advantage is that a single booklet covers the whole year.

Free 2019 Filofax calendar (diary) downloads part 3: Pocket size

Don't panic. It's not even summer yet. But 2019 is coming. If you're looking for diary/calendar pages for next year for the Filofax Pocket format, you might want to look at these layouts, which are free to download and print yourself at home.


Although you'll still find the source files on this site to produce your own diary sets for any year (or any shorter period) people seem to like the convenience of downloading full year sets. Here are Pocket sized sets for 2019. I've already posted A$ and A5 sets and Personal sets.

Day per page minimalist:   Word file   PDF file

Each file is set up as an A4 document. Print this double-sided. If you have a duplex printer, set it to flip on the short edge. If you don't then you'll have to print odd-numbered pages and then refeed to print the even-numbered pages on the reverse. You might have to experiment to find out how to refeed the paper.

On one side of each sheet you'll find crop marks. Use a craft knife and a steel ruler to release the Pocket pages and punch them. The templates are set up with mirrored gutters to accommodate the holes.

If using the PDF be sure to set it to print at full size as explained here.

Free 2019 Filofax calendar (diary) downloads part 1: A4 and A5 size

In the warm days of spring, the new year seems a long way away, but there are people out there impatient to get on with their new year planning. If you are one of them and you use an A4 or A5 format, you might want to look at these diary/calendar layouts, which are free to download and print yourself at home. These arise from a collaboration between me and Steve Morton of Philofaxy and you can find the files there also.

But you don't need to have a Filofax or any other organiser to make use of these. A4 and A5 binders are widely available and there's no reason why you can't combine one of those with these pages and have a complete DIY solution.


Although you'll still find the source files on this site to produce your own diary sets for any year (or any shorter period) people seem to like the convenience of downloading full year sets. Here are A4 or A5 sets for 2019. Pocket and Personal sets will follow.

Each version is set up as an A4 document. To use them as A5 inserts, print the document in booklet mode on A4 paper, then use a guillotine to divide each sheet into two and punch the required holes, which the templates are set up with mirrored gutters to accommodate. Or, if you have A5 paper, then either the printer or the PC will scale it to size for you.

Introducing the BOAC Blue Special Edition

New for 2018, here is the BOAC Blue Special Edition Traveller's Notebook.


This one is quite personal for me. My grandfather used to work for the BOAC airline many years ago, so it was the obvious choice of golden-age British airlines to complete this edition.

If you'd like one, email me at ray.blake@gmail.com
