Notebooks – I love them! Started with a tiny one when I was the size of a matchbox (my mum took me to a size specialist) and never looked back. Sold one of the first, full of pasted-in cut-outs and drawings of kite people, to a rich girl with thick legs down the road for 6d. That was in the days of Nottingham’s thick fogs, and the nearby Castle Museum, looming out of the fog on top of its sandstone rock, had boxes of mysterious objects in its shadowy corridors. Very influential on SK development. Dozens of notebooks in the Globe Wernickes. Notebooks are essential, and have to fit into pockets btw.
