Hi

i was also introduced to a fountain pen via an old dip pen and ink dip well when I started school back in the distant past! 

We had to practise cursive writing until we could hand in a perfect set of letters and numbers then we were permitted to graduate to some type of fountain pen!

i dearly love them and am serious about collecting, repairing, and turning new fountain pens!

Hello everyone

 

I've just joined FPN having been a fountain pen fan since I firsted used one at school, age 7. I use fountain pens daily as part of my job and so am keen to find out about reliable pens for everyday use as well as those special pens for special occasions.

 

With thanks

 

James

Hi Richard unfortunately The Pen shop now only has branches in Glasgow and Edinburgh. They shut the Leeds branch a few years ago. I spoke to a member of staff at thief head office and they are concentrating all their sales online

IIRC, it is Glasgow and Manchester (Trafford).
