A few pointers concerning using the word file used for the tube/calender wallet;
1. Print double sided to include the tube map, or single sided without

4. Feel free to make any improvements and please let me know when you do!
Many thanks to this bloke and whoever it was who came up with the idea for these wallets, for providing the inspiration behind this.
Some of my work colleagues reckon I should go and sell this idea on BBC's Dragon's den!
