Hi I live in the UK lincolnshire side and would love to go to a pen show and would love to meet up with people in the lincolnshire area

I'm probably stupid and missed the post with dates and where's on lol but in my defence I'm still learning were everything is

Thank you all

Hiya

I've just signed up to FPN after looking at the hobby that long.

It looks like the UK interest is minimal compared to our us cousins which doesn't surprise me really because of the way we live and the general attitude. No one in the seems interested in anything that ddoesn't iinvolve a ball I'm sorry to say. But maybe something will turn up if we just keep visiting fpn... Keep going with your obsession.

Best wishes.

There is a monthly meet for pen enthusiasts in London on the first Saturday which doesn't involve balls apart from on the big screen that is conveniently located away from us.

 

In October the meeting is in the pub opposite the Pen Show on the Sunday

There is also the Pelikan Hub meeting(s) on 16th September.

London and Manchester I know and I think Edinburgh?

alc, I've now registered with Pelikan. How does one find out what dates and where the hubs will take place?

 

Many thanks in advance.

      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

      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
