As I just started a new job and can't find a shirt in the company color that has pockets, my FP's stay home for the while. At home I'm using an "Airmail" 58C from India and a Sheaffer 100 or a Sheaffer Imperial deluxe II.

Parker Urban rollerball with gel refill, Cross Aventura with medium nib using Cross black cartridge, and Lexington made for Franklin Covey by Cross medium nib (writes like a fine) with MontVerde black ink cartridge.

 

Just used the Lexington to make entries into check book register and the Aventura to write the checks and address envelopes.

Dave - what do you think of the Franklin Covey pen? I am considering getting one; do you recommend it?

      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.
