Hmm, I seem to have developed a thing for leather writing cases. Two in one day off the bay, both English leather in A5 size for around £10 each...both appear to be nice examples. I prefer using this type of case for carrying notebook, letter writing stuff, pen, postcards etc rather than buying into the current trend for leather notebook covers / journal systems (i.e. Midori). I already have a smaller brown 'Duke' sized case that has been great for writing when travelling but have been after a nice A5 example at a reasonable price for a while. Looking forward to getting and using them. Dom Green And Blue
