Actually, I should have mentioned that Filofax is a brand name that quickly became the generic term for a leather or plastic bound diary/day planner or 'personal organiser' as they were also called, with additional bits you could add in for addresses, etc. People stuffed them full of paper too and often had to put elastic bands round them because they got so full. The bulginess of your Filofax because a sort of status symbol. I'm really surprised that the Filofax name didn't make it across the atlantic because Filofaxes were a defining yuppie accessory.
