New Sketch book!

I'm not one to spend much money on cloths, shoes....make up etc., most of my cloths come from thrift shops....but my very big indulgence is sketch books!!!   This one arrived yesterday, it's 16" x 12" and bound in a beautiful brown 'vegan' leather, and came in a very spiffy box - and rather expensive!   Can't wait to get going on it, altho i'm at the very precious stage right now, and don't want to make a mess in it....luckily that won't last long and i'll get going maybe later today, cos it's my day off!   I can't go far afield cos the showroom is open, but i don't have anything that has to be done :)
