Thanx for welcoming posts!

Truly to say - this waterman was a gift, I'm awaiting now a Pilot from Japan and thinking about buying a Sailor.. But I don't really know which.. smile.gif

I'm already about to go out to have a beer and - as a hobbit - a pipe of tobacco... :-) Greetings to all from Prague...

Welcome from Chicago! Thats a nice pen - I like the Waterman pens too. My wife and I have been to Europe several times and plan to return this summer. Our destination has been narrowed down to either your city or Oslo Norway. We've heard great tings about Prague.

I don't know... This stuff is for me too "futuristic"... I wouldn't be able to write with such a pen in my hand.. I appreciate classics.. smile.gif

Hello. A piece of my heart is still in Prague. I used to live there for a couple of years. Beautiful city, beautiful people, beautiful beer...
I still have the habit to go there in November to run the Velka Kunraticka.
BTW, I never pen-huted there. I would be courious to know if there is some nice pen shop in Prague? Maybe not in Venceslav where everything cost double than anywhere else?

Thanks and welcome!
thehobbit
Hello and thank you! I live in the part of Prague which is very very near to Kunratice, I use to go there for a walk...

As for the pen-shops - there are few, mut mostly those with luxurious items in the modern shopping centres.. So for me eBay is the only possibility... smile.gif

Have a nice day!

Wow we were close then! I lived in Chodov (after some months in Vinogradska). Beautiful place there!
Is there any CZ ebay or auction based website?

Welcome to FPN.
Greetings from Poland!

I was fortunate enough to spend some time in the Czech republic some years ago. I have fond memories, and think always of a return. I stayed in Čelákovice. Ironically enough the best pizza I have ever had was there.

Cheers,

There is an internet auction place www.aukro.cz (very similiar to polish www.allegro.pl - I think there is one company behind them)... But FP auctions are very rare there... sad.gif

Hello from Charleston, South Carolina! I am new to this network too! I was amazed at all of the information, and the fact that there were other pen-a-holics, like me! I hope to make it to your region of the world in the next few years!
