A Faber Castell Ondoro in Oak finish, though I'm having difficulty in sourcing this finish and it seems now only to be primary colurs available everywhere I look: but the oak was/is mightly fine looking! :)

I'm really interested in the new Pelikan cartridge/converter pen.

We have a big anniversary coming up and it's gonna be a pen... I am holding out for a nice p51 in teal or dove grey...maybe something with a big fat italic nib...hmmm. Suppose I should actually figure out what I want..

I just picked up one of these beauties about three weeks ago. It's a wonderful pen!

Can't wait for mine!

My next pen will probably be a Pilot Metropolitan (F) and then a TWSBI 580.

 

Number 1 on my wish list is a Belmont in Turquoise from Gate City Pens/ Richard Bender. But that will be a while off.

Is that an M800? Gorgeous.

Oh, wow. I did not know that was a thing that existed. That's going on the list. :)

 

As for me, I'm currently fantasizing about a Visconti Homo Sapiens Maxi 25th Anniversary Edition.

I'm not thinking about my next pen. I just want to use and enjoy the ones I have. A new one just arrived yesterday - Fabe-Castell Loom Extra fine... smooooth!

Can't go wrong with a M200, more or less my favourite pen.

 

I got one just recently with an EF nib and it writes really well. It's a bit small and light for my tastes so I'll probably go for a 605 or 800 or maybe even 1000 later, but overall the 200 is quite a good pen.

There are so many pens on my list, and not enough money. :( I'm saving up for an Edison right now. They're so beautiful.

I am looking for a Montblanc 333 1/2. I would also possibly be tempted by a 236, 222, or 326.

I'm waiting for my new Pelikan m600 from Germany now. I think next pen will be Sheaffer Legacy.

Saving for a Nakaya naka-ai in aka-tamenuri. It'll be a couple of months before I can afford it though. The one I really want is the raden naka-ai in Milky Way, but I'd be saving for a long, long time and I'm not yet sure I'll like Nakaya pens enough to throw that amount of money at it. Need the try a 'cheaper' one first.

The Nakaya is fantastic. A friend od mine owns one and he let me try it. Fantastic but the prices are so high ... Even from Japan, it's very expensive ... I wish you have it soon and be happy writing hours and hours with it, Anneleen ....

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
