Mark, appreciate the comments mate and yes a lot of effort went into the design but hey ho, we can't please everyone. Especially those who historically like a moan anyway
I invite anyone who has issue with the calendar to feel free to attempt a better job with budgets as they were. The calendar was sold to raise funds for the club, that was always clear. If we had added holes (which, as Mark points out, are easily added using a hole punch) it would have added approx £2.30 to the cost and more than doubled shipping fees (which were included in the total cost as it was) - not ideal I'm sure you would agree!
I will admit that the cover stock isn't the same weight as TG (even though the same arm of HP printed it) but that aside, I've no issue with the design or layout - particularly the lack of boxes for the dates. To point out, if I had added those, there would be LESS room to write in!
Like I say, I invite anyone with issues to do a better job next time as I can tell you now, I bloody well won't be!
