I apologise. I have just Montblanced. And Edsoned. :yikes:

 

Having sorted that imagey stuff on all sides I expect shortly to be waiting for an old rubbery thing which I will probably like also.

 

Actually, I expect to enjoy writing with all of them, being why I paid with money. :)

A Staedtler F1 piston filler, fine point, bright red with black trim; similar to the Pelikan Go!, by the looks of it.

And another Waterman JIF Color. :rolleyes:

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

This strange Pelikan 300 from Christof. Black with red tips.

He takes such good photos. Looking forward to seeing this little bird soon.

Just spending time enjoying the sights in Zurich. I'm glad to see my grandchildren have grown up so healthy and good-looking.

Seems I have fallen victim to the Pelikan Twist. I was actually considering one of the Pelikano models recently, but everyone wants twice as much for them & the Twist has a certain...something...to it.

I'm thinking Nightshade maybe.

Missed yesterdays delivery by half an hour. Got a note to pick up my pens (2 Serwex pens ) at the local post office, 5 minutes walk from our house. Rats! They are only open until noon on Saturday.

Double Rats!! Monday is a national holiday and I won't be able to get them until Tuesday :(

As of tonight, the beautiful Edison Nouveau Premiere in Neptune's Pearl! I've been eyeing an Edison pen for a while, and then the Goulets came out with this gorgeous, summery, oceany pen and I fell immediately in love. Even picked up a discounted extra-fine nib to swap out with the 1.1mm I chose.

 

My boyfriend is just getting into fountain pens, and he's already requested to write with it now and then. Hee hee.

I'll come up with something eventually.

Just ordered a couple of Jinhoas to hold my Goulet nibs.

My fingers are always inky and I'm always looking for something new.  Interested in trading?  Contact me!

Well, (bleep), I just won an M200 broad nib unit. I mean...that's good & all, but I suppose I tend to expect more resistance.

I am in the "still waiting" mode for the Ranga Model 8 & ASA Trans Nauka. I do have a tracking # for the Ranga. however. the # still shows my pen in limbo. I've got to believe it is in transit :blush:

Just bought a small lot with a Parker 45, Sheaffer Imperial, Levenger TW in Delft Blue, and a Levenger Carbon Fiber. I think I got a fair price. Fingers crossed!

Do you mean more people bidding against you? ;)

I spent half of my time at the Triangle Pen Show last month trailing around trying to get a M200 B, to put in my replacement Café Crème (which came with a firehose of an IM nib), and then barring that try to have the IM tweaked so it wasn't such a gusher even with iron gall inks. So I ended up at the Indy-Pen-Dance table to have Linda Kennedy work some magic on the IM, and mentioned I'd been trying (and failing) to find a B nib unit, and she said "Well, you didn't come to ME!" So now I have both the IM nib (still on the pen since I didn't want to flush the ink in the pen -- Pharmacist's Turkish Night, for which I don't have a backup bottle :(), and -- when I finish the fill of ink in the pen -- the nicely tuned B nib.
