    Default Calendar 2012

    Hello - I ordered my 2012 calendar about 6 weeks ago and when it was end of November I sent an email to the company as I still hadn't received anything - to be honest I just presumed it would be near the end of the year but thought I would check. Anyway, this week they emailed me saying it was out of stock and have refunded me!

    So I am now needing to buy a calendar but I am really fussy! Please help! i need a calendar that is...
    -Week to View
    -has at least 5 columns - so the family style ones
    - large boxes to write in so pages need to be A4ish and have plenty of space (not too many pics)

    This year I have had a month to view one and the boxes just are not big enough. Have any of you bought one of these and where from? Thank you!

    That's a good idea - what is it like inside? There are no pics? Is it week to view? Lots of pics or quite plain?

    I couldnt live without the following 2 products from the below, i love the space for each week and the little tear away slips at the side for shopping lists etc.

    They look fab too - like the idea of the fundraising too. I always use a student diary as my life runs by school year and not jan-dec so this is fab - think i may save the link and get them in time for the new school year and just get a cheap calendar in the meantime... Oh now there is too much choice lol!

    Sorry only just seen this. It is a month on a page but there are five spaces so one for each of us and one for cm. There is enough room for all our notes and we are a busy family. I like to see the whole month at a time.

    Hmmm the monthly view hasn't worked out for me this year - first year I have done a family month to view - i can't cope with seeing all the crossing out and extra bits I write everywhere for a whole month - like a fresh page every week lol! Yes I am fussy and anal! Lol! I have found a very basic plain weekly one with 5 columns for under a fiver on amazon and have ordered that with the view to getting that organised mum one for sept next year (unless of course the cheapy one is fab and I want to continue with it!)

    Thanks all, bery helpful as always!
