Mr. C. has been away at a conference in this quite luxurious location, and he's returned with a corporate gift or two. Leading the glamorous life that he does (you may remember this post), he brings home the odd souvenir (such as this memorable one), but today's is just the thing for a stationery* fiend like me: a Moleskine notebook, and - wait for it - a mini notepad with a set of neon sticky tabs! I'll draw a veil over the 'gold bar' paperweight, best described as plastic bling.
*I note Cornflower doesn't have a stationery category as such, and yet it's a very popular topic with a lot of us, so perhaps it's time to introduce one.
please introduce a stationery category.moleskine journals are my constant 'friends'.efi.

You'll only get catty comments if you do ;-)

I have had a black Moleskine for more than three years but it's so beautiful I can't bring myself to use it! How pathetic is that!

Another stationery fan here. I have a small Moleskine diary this year which makes me very happy. And I always have a small Moleskine notebook in my bag, but it has to be unlined: I like sketching as well as writing. (There's something to explore: what does our choice of paper reveal...)
Rather jealous of your gifts from jet-setting Mr.C. Although perhaps not the plastic seahorse.
