Toronto Brunch Meet Up?


saskia_madding

Recommended Posts

Hey guys! Originally I started the Toronto pen meet-ups as small, quiet brunches on the weekend. Eventually people seemed more inclined to do a Friday night pub thing, so then the Pens and Pints was created.

 

Recently the P&P have gotten HUGE and loud, and some people have come to me to express interest in adding to the Toronto pen meets up with another weekend brunch, maybe once or twice a month.

 

Anyone here have any interest?

This will be a great idea everyone, the brunches got big and loud and pens and pints rolled out but the brunches were and will be wonderful. Mornings of coffee better lighting at times and still fellowship with the pen community. If it was not 2300 or more km away from me I would happily sign up. The first pens and pints with 4 friends is larger now (I was one of the 4). I would suggest three or four of you in Toronto jump at this opportunity and get in at the ground floor for some fun get togethers.

Saskia, I've been meaning to get back to you since you posted this. I would love to attend -- I'm definitely a brunch person -- but it seems that everytime one of the Toronto events is held, I'm out of town for work... So, should other people be interested, please post something... and with luck I just might be able to attend.

Thanks for the brunch in January during my visit. It was wonderful to see you, Philip, Anwar, Dennis again.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
