Des moules avec des frites et une bière à côté, j'espère en tout cas, bon appétit ! :)

Perfect video snippet Nick!!!! Tin Tin is a fav of mine, and next to that superb travel wrist bag, with a fountain pen and paper.....brilliant!! Thanks for this :)

Covent Garden is always an interesting place to visit. Last time I was there it was the Moomin shop I enjoyed :))

I wish you "Happy Keyboarding!"💙🖥⌨💻

Probably, using the Alphasmart Neo is better than using a typewriter, as for typing on the keyboard.

Put your dirty candy in the what?

Beautiful colourful shot with great atmospheric music. It's one of those shorts you can just leave on repeat! :)

Saltaire is lovely, have visited many times. There used to be a ‘ pay as much as you can afford ‘ charity cafe there I once visited, I wonder if it’s the same place?

Lovely!!

Thank you for sharing this Nick. I too have struggled with Amazon Ads. I have tried seven or eight times and there were no results. I have tried to follow their (complicated) advice online but have given up now. I hope you find the free Amazon Ads book is much clearer and that you can make the ads work to your advantage. Lovely lot of freebies - ALMOST worth flying in from Mexico for... - and I love the tee shirt's slogan, 'I'm not quiet, I'm plotting' 🙂. Do let us know if you can work the Amazon Ad maze out won't you?

As always, this is so helpful and motivating, Nick. It really is encouraging to see how you track progress and income, and how perhaps I can add that approach to my system; just waiting for delivery of a Filofax ZIP Personal, which I haven't used for a while for productivity, so will see if I can do something with that. Looking forward to your fiction book(s) :)

I'd love to be part of that company! :) I've been voiceovering for many years, and it's a great business to be in. This was very interesting; thanks for recording it.

Steve is a terrific writer, incredible model for all indies, and a helluva good guy. I expect we will soon see a tv show or movie from one of his books.

Makes all the difference when the sun is shining :) Hope you've had a great tiime there and got some good information for your book sales.

Felicitaciones Nike a disfrutar del encuentro y el verano 👍🏽

Felicitaciones

Thank you, Nick! You really are a great encouragement and influence. I've even just bought the same Faber Castell pen and, as you've said, it is indeed a lovely writing experience, for such a great price too :) Thanks again and take care! Barry

Nick, Thank you for the positive videos. I really enjoy listening to you describe the countryside and the places that you visit. The train ride sounds like a bit of heavan on earth to me. I am currenly reading Anna Karenina and I am enjoying it very much.

Stay positive and keep shining! ☀️

Thanks for sharing

Well done Nick 🎉

Muy interesante este contenido, muchas gracias por compartirlo.

I recently welcomed an AlphaSmart 2000 into my life, eager to tap away at its keys and unleash my creativity. But fate had other plans. Just as I was getting acquainted with my new companion, a morning mishap sent it tumbling from the bed to its untimely demise. It was a brief but beautiful journey. Undeterred, I’ve now turned to the AlphaSmart NEO, a worthy successor with its sleek design and robust build. I chose the NEO not just for its durability, but also for its distraction-free environment that promises to keep my creative flow uninterrupted. Plus, the addition of a data cable ensures that not a single word of my stories will be lost in translation. As I embark on this new chapter, I’m filled with excitement for the tales yet to be told and the characters waiting to come alive under my fingertips. Stay tuned for the adventures that lie ahead with my NEO!

THIS is the setup I've been searching for to help me get back on track (no pun intended). Will pay a visit to Rymans tomorrow, Lord willing, to get myself one of their large notebooks for my anchor journal - can't wait to set it up! Thanks, Nick!

Love looking at old books :) Every place I visit I always look for an old bookshop to check out - the Oxfam bookshops have some great selections in them too, including Penguin ones, which in the past I've glanced at, but you've piqued my interest to spend a little extra time reviewing them! Thanks for sharing a part of your collection.

I also use mine and if I don’t have my laptop at hand I connect the AS to my smartphone and send it directly to word…

Very interesting video - I stumbled upon it thanks to UA-cam, and am glad I did. Francois's note is a treasure. I've subscribed.

Oh my god... I press play because of title, but then a Kaweco and a Neo2!!! I already like you!

Always love hearing the sound of the sea. Just taken delivery of a new Filofax to store some writing ideas, so will have this video on now as I customise it and make it mine :) Thank you for this! God bless!

Really interesting viewing. I liked the address book with your old school. I lived next to the comprehensive for a few years in the 80’s and used to play around the school grounds.

Can I ask what make that wrist bag is? Very useful

Love that tucked in ephemera with a note from Francois. Such a treasure to keep. 💙

Great video. The company I worked for in the mid 90's supplied a Franklin Planner. Man I had arrived packing that beast around everywhere I went. Haha! About once every few years I flip through my diary and journal collection. They hold alot of memories. I really appreciate you sharing your experiences with us. Have a great week!

Paper all the way for me. Writing as opposed to typing feels so much more fulfilling. And don't get me started on tick-lists! 🙂

loved it!

Wow, brilliant, humbling. Thanks for sharing your life experience and notebooks with us. Its nice going to our past every once in a while without having to charge or stare at a screen for a long time.

very powerful moment. It shows the layers a journal can provide if you keep one. lovely!

Thank you for sharing your analog history. What a delightful, beautiful stroll down memory lane! I'm from around the same time period, but we used Franklin Covey (which has been enjoying a renaissance recently - what goes around, comes around). Today I use a hybrid analog/digital system, but I'll always be a PlannerGirl at heart. The affirmations and notes, etc you collected would probably find their way into a commonplace book today. Such an incredible legacy for your family. Thanks again for sharing with us.

As an independent contractor, I used a Filofax for decades. There was usually a mad dash to the stationery store in the week between Christmas and New Year’s to purchase the insert for the upcoming year so that I could claim it as a home office deduction for the current year. Now in retirement I still use a “hard copy” notebook, albeit a much larger one (eyesight not being as acute). I use a Franklin Covey zippered affair that houses both standard US size printer paper (cut in half) and Universal A5. I’ve kept all my previous notebooks, as well as - and you’ll love this - an original IBM leather-bound Think Pad from the 1960s. It still has many unused pages.

This video showcasing your Filofaxes was so intriguing. It tells such a life story. Thanks for sharing.

Lol! I'm using my old Filofax as a notebook, too. I even purchased a fountain pen.

They’re still more useful for organizing information than phones. They don’t go dark when you’re using them and don’t require charging or passwords. Plus I can add info lickety split compared to my phone.

can relate to those!!

I enjoyed this Nick. I haven't read the Laurie Lee 'A Rose for Winter' but after your description, it is definitely going on my 'to read' list. I had/have the same problem as you in book accumulation - and luckily found a local bookshop which had just opened and they bought a lot of my books at a good price. You mentioned Three Men in a Boat. It is one of the comic gems of English literature. I have two copies (must get rid of one...) and read it every few years to cheer myself up. Like you said, that's the thing about books, they each bring back a particular memory, which is why I have such a hard time getting rid of any!
