I've been making massive headway in a class I got behind in, so that mystical date when I will finally take pictures of mine + my awful scrawl is approaching. I can actually see the surface on parts of my desk for the first time in...well, let's not get into specifics. :embarrassed_smile:

 

But I actually have 1670 ink, the Spirit, and Clairefontaine paper all in the same house at the same time. :cloud9:

While we wait for Ghost Plane to comply with requests I have something for the Henry Simpole fans to ponder on and do if they feel like it!

 

My link will take you to a place where you can vote for a design competition that Henry has entered - free registration and secure! I already did it...........I wonder if he has? :eureka:

Each day is the start of the rest of your life!

Make it count!!!

He may be too modest to vote for himself....:embarrassed_smile:

I don't know about being too modest to vote for myself, but I tried to log-in to see what it was all about. [No, I haven't voted for myself!]

But they wouldn't accept my password or my E-mail address [one or the other, I know not which!]

Eventually, I sent them a notification of my problem of getting through to them, and I was asked for my subscription number! [They said that it was printed below the address on the envelope which enclosed my magazine!]

I don't know about everybody else here, but am I the only person who tends to dispose of the envelopes once I have opened them to get to the magazine?

Strikes me that the machines/patients are running the asylum!!!

I hope that anyone else who has tried to seek more information from them has more success than I did!

I know, you are probably thinking that I just don't know how to use these machines............. and you'd be right!!!

Being rather new to FP, I've never heard of him. Let's see how much cash I can dish out in four years when I graduate college to have an astronomy-themed pen commissioned :)

I just want to thank those people who have contacted me recently [both via the PM service by FPN, and to me directly] to tell me how they have enjoyed reading the things that I have written here on FPN, or to show me their support in what I am doing.

I am not 'known' for exposing myself in public! But having 'been exposed' as being 'Truffle Finder' recently did leave me a little shell-shocked, so it was very comforting to hear from those people who made the effort to contact me to tell me how they felt.

Thank you.

Truffle Finder. :thumbup:

Erm :embarrassed_smile: It'll probably have something to do with my course work finally being completed conjoined with the installation of the all in one so that I have a scanner and perhaps the clearing of the desk top... :blush: :blink:

Oh Lordy!!! Valentine's Day here again, all but two weeks! :cloud9:

It can't be a year since the last one..............oh! Wait, that was Christmas - silly me! :blush: :blink: :wub:

 

So.............GP, when is it going to happen??? We can't wait to see your delicate hand holding your Spirit pen.......and ink markings from that wide nib! :notworthy1:

Each day is the start of the rest of your life!

I've been excavating desks. Computers moved up on shelves, wires getting tucked away behind...

 

Ever noticed how, when you begin rearranging furniture and computers, it's like a pond sloshing? Waves of office detritus lands on all available surfaces and then homes have to be found for THAT. :bonk:

 

We're getting closer. Got my hands on a camera. But how to hold it left handed and take a picture of the right hand is the problem. May have to do a demo shot with my left hand of how I hold it with the right, then the writing samples. Plus, which pens to put next to it for size comparison... :hmm1:

Hi esterbex!

 

I think you have to pronounce daudle as dawdle............ do you agree? Sometimes words just 'hugga-mugga' for me! :blink:

You know, I initially spelled it correctly, and then changed it because it just didn't look right....I think I was "hugga-mugga'd" :roflmho:

Thanks for removing the brain fuzzies! :blush:

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
