Drawing works both ways. :)

 

As for the outlets - I was intentionally (and jokingly) being an obnoxious American. :)  I'm well aware of various outlet configurations around the world.  

My parents took a trip to Dubrovnik, and my dad couldn't use his electric razor because apparently there was a big ceramic ring around the outlet in their hotel room (he had one of those voltage converters but couldn't plug that in).  So he apparently bought a safety razor in the hotel shop to use instead, and my mother said he ended up looking like a prizefighter, he had so many cuts on his face!

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

From a discussion where someone said something about "getting our heads sorted" (or something like that):

@A Smug Dill I'm hugely impressed by your cartoon drawing talents! I think you've missed your calling B)

Thank you very much! I really can't draw without Visio or PowerPoint and a whole library of clip art in support. Having such good images search on the Web these days does make it a bit easier for me to produce something very derivative in outline, I must say.

:lticaptd:I'm now imagining the reaction of the people at the next table (e.g. in a restaurant) when they overhear a pair of FP users talking about their cleaning routine...

The Gillott 404 dip nib isn't as popular as the 303, in part because of its stiffer action, and in part because of being missing in action (404). 😉
