Description
This fish notebook dresses up a stack of lined pages as a tin of mackerel, with two cheerful blue and black fish swimming across a bright red cover. Bold lettering over them reads 'Mackerel, in tomato & basil sauce', and under them sits 'Skinless & boneless fillets', so it looks for all the world like something from the larder shelf. A black spine runs down the left edge, and inside there are 60 lined pages of cream paper. We sell it in two sizes, A5 and A6. The A5 notebook is 21cm tall and 14.5cm wide, a comfortable size for proper writing, while the A6 is the smaller of the two, easy to slip into a handbag or rucksack.
Lined pages suit any kind of everyday writing, so this is a notebook that earns its keep wherever lists and notes tend to pile up. Keep the A5 on a desk for meeting notes, revision or a running to-do list, or on the kitchen worktop for recipes, meal plans and the weekly shop, where a cover that reads like a tin from the cupboard feels right at home. The A6 travels well for jotting ideas, addresses and reminders when you are out and about. Both bring a little humour to a home office, a study or a busy kitchen.
Both sizes are made from paper, and at 0.6cm thick the notebook stays slim enough to stack on a shelf or carry alongside a laptop. It is light too: the A5 weighs 127g and the A6 65g. Treat it as you would any paper: keep it dry and away from spills, and store it flat so the cover stays crisp. The flat shape makes it simple to wrap, and it makes a cheerful little gift on its own. We like it best left out on the desk, where those two grinning fish are bound to raise a smile.
