Anoyone Else Use Moleskine Journals?

Feel free to post anything unrelated to wet shaving or men's grooming (I.e. cars, watches, pens, leather goods. You know, the finer things of life).

I have used Moleskines for notes and the like in the past. Currently, I have a Reporter's Notebook version of the lines Moleskine and use as a journal.

I love to sit down with it after everyone else has gone to bed in the house and jotting down my thoughts from the day with Moleskine and Lamy Studio fountain pen in hand.
Regards,
Jason

The Rhodia webnotebooks look pretty good and the paper is heavier. My next notebooks I think I want to use exclusively with a FP. Maybe these Rhodias are the way to go.

Rhodia makes great notebooks, Tye. You cannot go wrong with them.

I use Moleskine Cahier notebooks on projects to record meeting notes, strategies, and problems and their solutions. Even though they have a craft paper cover I find them to be very durable. At about $8 for a three pack at my local B&N they are inexpensive and very practical.

On the down side, the paper appears to be very thin. I usually write on the job with an automatic pencil so it's not an issue for me but I have noted bleed through with ink on the page.

My wife uses Moleskine's Gardener's notebook for her personal gardening projects.

Mine was £7.99 from a university bookshop. They're lovely little items and, for the avid note-taker, well worth the extra pennies for the hint of pleasure they add to a thousand otherwise banal daily scribblings :)
