The Everlast notebook provides a classic pen and paper experience, yet is built for the digital age. Each page is covered in a grid of dots, and at the bottom of each page, there are a series of symbols. When you write using any pen from the Pilot Frixion line, your writing sticks to Everlast pages like regular paper. But add a drop of water… and the notebook erases like magic.

First you have to download the free application, Rocketbook. Rocketbook supports most emails, Google Docs, Dropbox, Box, Evernote, Slack, iCloud, and Microsoft Onenote: Assignning a program to each symbol. To save your pages, you must then circle a symbol which opens the  app, and snap a photo of the page, making sure that the QR code in the bottom left-hand corner and the circled symbol are visible in the scope of the camera. After that, the app will read and remember what symbols mean what and then you’ve got a picture of your handwritten notes online in whatever program you selected.

This is perfect for eco-conscious students, allowing you to reduce your waste as you study. Although it feels like a traditional notebook, the Everlast is endlessly reusable, versatile and user-friendly.

The only drawback is you can only use the FriXion pens.

If you fancy a smaller size, RocketBook also have the RocketBook Mini for just £15.99!

RocketBook Colour – RRP £19.99

Alongside her husband, Fergus McCarthy, Penny played a crucial role in the rapid expansion of the printed edition, which grew from a local startup to a widely circulated monthly publication with a reach of 192,000 copies across Kent, South London, and beyond. Under Penny’s leadership, Parents News quickly became a trusted resource for families, providing valuable information on education, entertainment, sports, and family-friendly events. Her vision helped the publication extend its influence with franchises in Northern Ireland and Cornwall, catering to a growing demand for accessible, family-oriented content. In 1997, recognising the importance of digital media, Penny spearheaded the launch of Parents News UK Online. The website initially mirrored the content of the printed editions and has since evolved into a comprehensive online resource for parents, achieving significant popularity with up to 700 daily hits. In 2017, the publication transitioned fully to an online platform, continuing to inform and engage families across the UK. Today, Penny remains deeply involved in the ongoing success of Parents News UK, focusing on innovative advertising opportunities and future growth plans. Her dedication to supporting families through accessible and practical content has made Parents News a cherished name in households across the country.
