I repeat, let's move on now.

 

Will I get in trouble for not moving on if I just add that I like this? It really is nice to have these two things separate and, I think, much easier to use this way. Thanks and thanks for deciding to pin the topic.

I don't think you will get in trouble for agreeing with the mod. Okay, time for me to move on.

OK, I'm pretty behind, having tried to catch up at work and home after the trip to Korea. (BTW, I was a dufus and didn't back up my PMs before they got wiped, so apologies if I missed something - I do have everyone's address written in my Little Black Book, though).

 

I've gotten a BUNCH of lovely postcards, including ones from FredRydr, inkypete, tr3n1ty, Suggie, pmsalty, and orangesam. I think I owe EVERYONE a postcard, so I'll be sending ones out to all the ones on my list (admittedly, not many). I also owe a card to slqqq.

 

Reprieve - I am PMing you right now. Tr3n1ty - I am home now.

 

:::deep breath:::

 

OK, back to work.

 

:bonk:

 

Edit: Forgot to say - also got one from jazztonight. :D

Sent out some reply PCs today with the holiday cards. Until about Dec 17th, I will try to use Christmas themed cards. After that I think I have a few New Years cards and I'll try to send those out. I also experimented with a flexible wax seal on the corner of the PCs (stealing MikeW's idea I think) since I was wax sealing the holiday cards for fun.

I feel it's wrong tpo report on letters, though.

Just a few lines to say, that work at the moment is making it tricky for me to find time to scribble PCs, so I might have to drop out of swapping until 2010!

 

Hope to see y'all next year FPN people ^^

It almost sounds like your mail is getting sent by surface/ship rather than air.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
