I was in Waterstones today, buying some books to read on holiday. I came across this 'City Notebook' thing, made by Moleskine.

It's pretty cool and will definitely be coming with me on walks around London. It contains a tube map, street map (no more A-Z required now), tracing paper (to overlay the map and record where I've been), loads of blank pages to make notes and some other stuff.
 
Is this the type of guide a first time visitor to London would be able to use?

Sounds interesting, not the usual guide book then? ... would be very useful for a project I'm doing.


TFS. :thumbs:
 
I've been using Molskine notebooks for years. Very good quality, and feel. I've a small one which slips into my back pocket, especially useful now my memory is failing with age!:lol:
 
I wouldn't call it a guidebook - apart from the maps and so on, it is blank! I think that it is actually billed as a personal guidebook that you write yourself - you can use it to plan a trip, record information of where you went and what you did and then re-use it afterwards.

I plan to use it to record the random photo-walks that I go on every now and then. London's a big place, and I while I know approximately where I've been, I can never remember all of the street names! There have also been other times when I've had great ideas for photographs, which i've written down on scraps of paper, which I've subsequently lost. This notebook is going to form a kind of photographic journal for me! I think that it's wonderfully low-tech!
