Good morning. Just shy of 70F with some threat of rain today. Suits me just fine.

Today I'm writing notes on a couple of grant proposals that just came in using my Sheaffer PFM III fine nib with Sheaffer Skrip Blue-Black.

Yesterday was the Lamy 2000 fine nib with Sailor Jentle Blue.

Don

Good morning!

It's a great day here - cool with clouds with the sun peeking through.

I am using my all around everyday pen - the black Sheaffer feathertouch with Polar Black.

Pep

Just received yesterday. Pilot 78G, black, fine point, with Noodler's la Coleur Royale. A bit of flex in the Asian Fine nib, and a wonderful pen. I can barely believe I got it for $10 plus shipping!

Got a green one too, but waiting for my green ink to arrive later today before I ink it. I can only stand so much pleasure

Donnie

This one for me today; also expecting a Jade Duofold Jr. Streamline in today's mail, so that'll undoubtedly get inked up too.

Pardon the crummy image - I know there's too much shadowing.

Good morning, everyone. Another week of hot and dry weather. Ithink we got a little biet rain last night, though (I heard it in my sleep and the deck is wet this morning).

Pelikan M250 clear with 0.5 mm Pendemonium CI with Apache Sunset

It's early yet, but so far, my Parker 21 Desk set M nib with Skrip BB and Duke Green Carbon Fibre M nib with Pel Green. I plan to use my Black Pilot 78G F with Noodlers la Coleur Royale and Green Pilot 78G with Pel Green later this morning and this afternoon.

Donnie

Good afternoon Taki & Donnie!
Haven't had a chance yet to use any pens...
might be the Sapporo today, and whatever pens arrive in the mail...

This morning I'm using an aerometric Parker 51 in the gray-green(?) color. Originally a medium nib, I had it reground to a very responsive fine nib by Deb Kinney. I haven't used this pen much, but now that it's writing the way I want, I'm really getting to like this pen. I'm heading off to a meeting later. I'll also bring a Visconti Wall Street and one other backup pen.

Good morning everyone! Today I'm using a black & pearl Sheaffer Jr with Quink Black. It's a firm but super smooth writer.

Also practicing thick/thin writing with a flexy Waterman Ideal #3.

Today I am using my newly received old Sheaffer flat top lever filler lifetime with XF nib from docnib, loaded with Pelikan royal blue. Very nice. Also using my Shule .5mm pen from wisergig, with Pelikan green. Makes my financial reports look classy. Also, used my unknown Sheaffer (I'll have to take a pic and see if anyone can ID it for me) I got last week from an eBay seller who thought it was a Parker 51. Medium to broad nib, Noodlers LCR, a bit toothy. And my Pilot 78G Green with Pel green, my Wality piston filler all black with Skrip BB, and last but not least, my desk set Parker 21.
Donnie

None beacuse it's summer!!!









Fine I admit to writing a detailed pen wishlist yesterday with my Faber Castell E-Motion yesterday.

Hellooo,

Parker 51 single jewel dark green silver cap fine nib with Stipula Calamo ink. Skippy skippy. Looks like a 14 week vacation to Mr. Binder for you!

Yes! tom

A blue Lamy Safari, filled with Lamy Blue.

Pocket: Sheaffer Saratoga Snorkel, burgundy, full of blue quink
Desk: 1951 Parker "51", full of same.

Two weeks at the new job, and I'm already the "pen weirdo".

Big fat vintage CS 100, Vintage Esterbrook "Relief" 2-S ,both filled with Waterman's Blue/Black, and Bexley Americana in Sanibel Blue (medium nib) filled with Noodler's Blue/Black.

A mixed bag today.

Esterbrook J transitional in pearl grey with Waterman blue/black. It lays a nice smooth line. I forget the nib number. In anycase a nice pen indeed!

Good morning, everyone! It's already 78F and the high will be over 90. Hoping for some rain.

Will be using my Professional Gear Slim Mini and Pelikan M250 demo filled with Apache Sunset again today

A matched brace of 45's for me today:

One with Binder Blurple
The other with Noodlers Burgundy

My FPN LE ran out of ink on me this morning so its out of rotation and on to the sink for a good rinsing!

Good morning all!
Seems humid today - fortunately not a running day for me.

Taki, I like the fishbowl!

I think I'll use the Waterman 0952 1/2V - it's wet & flexy.

Pep

Today I am using the Duke Carbon Fiber in green, with Pelikan green ink, the dynamic duo Pilot 78Gs, a black with Pel Royal Blue, a green with Pel green, my Parker 21 desk set pen, and the Shule .5 mm from wisergig.

Donnie

I was at a conference at Niagara-on-the-Lake today, taking notes with my fine/extra-fine nibbed third-quarter 1946 golden pearl Parker Vacumatic filled with PR 2005 DC Supershow Blue. My trusty FPN LE with medium steel stub nib and Noodler's Apache Sunset was close at hand as well.

Don

I've been using a 45 Flighter and/or a standard 51 constantly over most of this year with another pen that rotates at the completion of 1 fill. 3 days ago, I felt the urge to ink up my red Talentum and it remains inked today, so in total:

- a navy grey 51 Aero, F nib, Noodler's Squeteague,
- an Argentinian 45 Flighter, Bindered 0.6, Noodler's Squeteague,
- red Talentum, F nib, Noodler's Red-black.

Today I went to work with

-Waterman Expert with R&K Alt-Bordeaux
-ST Dupont Olympio with Noodler's midnight Blue
-Sailor 1911 with Noodler's Squeteague

Surprisingly it is the first time ever (!) I went to work without a pen loaded with black ink.
(But there is still a bottle of Waterman Black in my drawer in case I suffer from withdrawal)

Good morning/afternoon/evening, all. We had some thunder storms last night and got some rain High today will be 84F

Will be carrying this in my purse today.

Last night, I decided to replace the pen I normally use in my journal with a Pelikan Souveran M600 transparent blue demo (looks like the LE Blue Ocean) so that's what I'm using today. Filled with PR Tropical Blue. It's one of the best writing pens I've used.

Sounds like a very nice combination I'm waiting for my own bottle of PR Tropical Blue en route from Michigan

Good afternoon!
I'm using my Pilot 78G B with Arabian Rose!

Well today is a big cleaning out day but hey got to write a line before rinsing out so lots of pens in use today.

Lamy 2000

Re inked my Parker 45 Burgundy with Noodlers Burgundy and
Inked up a Parker Frontier Flighter with a Parker Penman Sapphire Cartridge
Put new lead and eraser on my Retro 51 Sudoku Pencil

The 45 Burgundy, Frontier Flighter and Sudoku are being packed in the backpack for the adventure to Old Mexico that begins in the morning. We are heading out for a medical mission trip that will be challenging and fun and a big blessing to all involved.

I will probably be out of touch for a week or so, so carry on and keep enjoying those pens!! Who knows maybe I'll come across some pens that need a new home on my travels. Adiós!

Today when I got to the office I pulled two pens out of my briefcase: a Waterman Edson Diamond Black with Waterman South Sea Blue ink, and a 1945 Parker "51" with Noodler's Red ink--both pens are understated and elegant, and get the job done quite well.

I am writing with a Grey Parker Vacumatic Major single jewel with Omas Blue today.

A blue Lamy Safari, filled with Lamy Blue ink.

Kane Boutry Basket of Lillies Pelikan with Penman Mocha

Clear Torelli Triad with Monaco Red

Good morning, all. It will be a nice day with high in 70's.

Sailor Profesional Gear Slim Mini with Sailor BB cart..I might add a bit of Diamine Indigo to get through today. Expecting a bottle of new ink today

Put some Herbin Poussiere de Lune in my Marlen Pappus that I haven't used in about a year. Writing with that today as well as my usual combo of Pilot 823 with Aurora Black and Dani Trio Ban-ei, now filled with Diamine Prussian Blue. Still rainy in Boston this morning for the third day straight, but it's supposed to clear this afternoon.

Sailor Sapporo F with Noodler's Zhivago. Later Rotring 600 with J. Herbin Bleu Myosotis.

Have a good one!

On a bright cool morning I have
>Delta Dolce Vita OS with Binderized CI nib running Noodler's Manhattan Blue (the Art Brown exclusive) for jobs that need a bigger hammer
>Parker 51 Flighter with Private Reserve Super Show Blue for jobs that need a rapier.
Good Day,
gary

Good morning everyone. Hope you slept as well as I did.
78F and going up, rained last night and there is a chance we may get some more.

I am going to use this big and chunky no name German pen I got for 25 bucks. It has PR Ultra Black (Old Souls) in it and I am ready to go.

I'm using a Parker 21 that I got as a gift at the Miami pen show. I've
got Private Reserve Topical Blue in it and it sure stains my fingers
in a beautiful blue color...

1. Conway - Stewart Churchill Collection Nebula; what an amazing amazing nib! 2. Parker Duofold Black Pinstripe

Today I am using my Charles Hubert-Paris green plaid fine point, and my Dani Trio Tac Carry II, both with Noodler's la coleur royale. When I arrived at work this morning I discovered I had left my 3-pen carrier at home, and that carrier is the residence for my 2 Pilot 78Gs and my new Duke Carbon Fiber, so I decided to give my old faithfuls a turn. They are actually some of my earlier favorites. If the Dani Trio had a fine nib, and was still as wet and smooth as it is with the Medium, I might (shudder) get rid of all the rest of my pens.
Donnie

(double shudder)!

Donnie, Tim uses the C-H Green Plaid everyday. I borrow it sometimes to write checks downstairs as most of my FPs are upstairs.

Today I'm using the Sapporo with brown-black ink mix.

An a Waterman Ideal 0952 1/2 V with Quink Black. Running low on Quink with all these vintage pens...

Good morning pen folks.
61F and not a chance of rain.
Have to learn to wait for sun to take photo.

Today I am using a 1.1 and a .9 Italic nibs in Stipula 22s. Both loaded with Quink Black.

Good morning!! It's 55F here. No rain is expected

Sailor Professional Gear Slim Mini F nib with PR Tropical Blue. I have Diamine one, too and as far as I look in my old journal entries written with Diamine I can't tell any difference. Have to use more to see if it behaves different.

Good afternoon, Taki, JD, and all,
I have not used any pens yet today!!!
Will probably write a little with all the inked ones.

I have just one pen and its a Waterman Phileas, I didn't use it that much until I went back to school full time...I use it every day and I write so much that I have to refill the converter every other day.

Hello and good mornig. Hope all of you are well (adjusted?).
59F and a pretty day, hope this keeps up. Except for the lack of rain.
Using the BIG Namixin today with stub nib and my own blood red ink. Feeling a little cursive.

Good morning, JD, Pep and all! It's 77F and outside looks nice. I'm freezing at work. Don't know why they need to keep it so cold.

Sailor and PR Tropical Blue again

Good morning Taki, JD, and all.

Got up late, it's nice and cool today. Still waiting for coffee to brew.

Probably going to be various FPs today, including a Waterman #3 with Quink.
