Appointment Book 2028

A dated 2028 day book that splits each day into three lines, BAY 1 through BAY 3, so three bookings can be checked against each other on one page.

Open any day in this book and it is already split three ways: BAY 1, BAY 2, BAY 3. A single line down the page only tells you whether one chair, room or technician is free. Three lines on the same page tell you whether all three are, which is the actual question behind most double-booking calls.

Twelve month pages sit ahead of the daily ones, for the booking you make three weeks out that has nowhere to live yet. A year page opens the book, for the shape of the whole thing before you write in a single appointment.

This edition runs the 2028 calendar, January to December. It does not roll back: if you need 2027, that is a separate, dated printing, not a refill for this one.

What is inside

Day pages: 366pp; Three lines per day, so three bays can be checked against each other at a glance.
Months: 12pp; One page a month, for bookings made before a specific day is chosen.
Notes: 31pp; Lined pages for whatever a three-line day cannot carry.
Year: 1pp; One page for the whole year before the first booking goes in.
Reference: 10pp; Conversion tables computed from definitions, emergency numbers checked against two independent sources, and the personal page every copy opens with.

The film

Page by page

A vertical film from our own bench — this page contacts nobody's server to play it, and downloads nothing until you press play.

A vertical film, 52 seconds: the cover, the ruling page, then 5 reference pages. Synthesised ambient bed, no dialogue — captions in three languages.

Real pages

Five pages from the Appointment Book 2028 laid out as cards: a three-line day page, a month page, a year page, a notes page, and the pen test page. — Five pages rendered straight from the print file: a three-line day page, a month page, the year page, a lined notes page, and the pen-test leaf at the back. The three lines are the product. A single line down a day page cannot show three bays at once, which is the entire reason to rule it this way rather than leave it blank.
