Hey,

 

finally decided to join FPN (I've been reading already a lot).

 

Found a mb starwalker a couple of years ago and started using, for the first time in my life, a fountain pen.

 

Dropped it on it's nib two months ago and decided to buy a MB 146 Ultra Black.

 

It's now with MB (already 5 weeks) to change the nib and to have a look at the way the barrel is allowed move in the cap which is really annoying. Makes it look (and sound) like some cheap fake.

 

Decided to try and fix my starwalker and it now works better then ever :-)

 

Also already 20+ years ,a fanatical mechanical pencil user (Pentel 207) and looking out for a Caran d'Ache Madison 0.7 mm with push nob.

 

That's All Folks !

Welcome !

 

I think FPN has a large contingent of Montblanc enthusiasts, who will help.

Verweile doch, du bist so schön !

Hello and welcome to FPN, from Cape Town (South Africa).

To sit at one's table on a sunny morning, with four clear hours of uninterruptible security, plenty of nice white paper, and a [fountain] pen - that is true happiness!

Welcome !

You lucky man, you live in a town with a MB Shop, and most of all, with 2 other very nice FP shops (Kockx, and another one not far from the Cathedral :D )

One pen roll, two pen rolls, three pen rolls ... So many pen rolls ! Do you want one ?

my tiny shop is open and you can have a closer look on my website to see my cotton (and sometimes silk) OOAK penrolls.

Welcome !

:-) You're right, I live in a great town, Europe's best kept secret !

 

The one PF shop 'not far from the Cathedral' is 'pen&pencils' and but this shop is about to close.

 

We have another great FP shop at the Paardemarkt (Horse market) which now operates under penworld.be. Super friendly service !

 

PS : Normandy is also very nice ; have been there twice with a motorcycle. Great roads, fantastic views !

Sorry to hear it's about to close ...

I'll try to have a look at the other shop next time I'll go to Antwerp (my husband works there :D )

And I forgot to talk about the Conid Factory ;)

 

Ans yes, Normandy is a very nice place :)
