    Say It ain’t so Joe! (Or Dan, Stephen or Eric)

    :( there must be a reason…

  • Scrib

    I hope everything’s okay.

    • http://fpgeeks.com/ Dan Smith

      Yep, all good. Just a family function that we couldn’t schedule around.

      • Maja

        Whew! Glad all is well. Hoping Eric comes back soon. Dan and Stephen, you’re doing a great job!

  • Halid ‘El-Fakir’

    I hope ‘We’ in “We’ll see you next week!” contains Eric too. Not that I don’t enjoy broadcasts with Dan and Stephen only, I do, but no one can do opening talk like Eric :)

    • http://fpgeeks.com/ Dan Smith

      You mean like, “How’s the weather there?”

      • Halid ‘El-Fakir’

        That one and the whole introduction bit where he says all those stuff about episode number, dates, days, live broadcasting, recording… It’s hypnotizing! :)
        Besides no one but him complains about clips. They have little use for me as well.

    Hoping everyone is ok and with best wishes

  • Scott Senior

    Man, I’m so bummed. I look forward to this all week. In fact I just yelled at my daughter to step away from the toaster so I could toast a slice of bread and run back to my office before the broadcast. Ah, she’ll get over it…

  • Ns_Zhivago

    The show misses Eric; I hope he is back on soon.

    • Breck

      Me too. What’s up with Eric?

  • walter penton

    Is it possible for your Amsterdam connection to identify the fountain pen with inscribed honeycomb and bees shown on the Akkerman welcome webpage for your return next week?

    • Stephen Brown

      It’s a Montblanc 149 with maki-e artwork. As far as I know, there’s only one of these; I don’t think Akekrman sells it, but just uses it as eye candy :-) .

  • apollosix

    those pesky meteorits.

  • ethernautrix

    Nooooooooooo!
    …
    Okay.
    See you next week.

  • walter penton

    Amsterdam connection comes through with quick identify of Mont Blanc honeycomb pen! Can I offer to supply and donate the ink for your next ink review, such as Diamine Havasu Blue? Is 20ml-25ml enough?

    • Stephen Brown

      Sure, would be appreciated! Maybe we can work out the details via private messages or something?

  • http://fpgeeks.com/ Dan Smith

    So we’ve finally got the news in the post before the show. Should make it easier to follow along.

  • Tamara

    Loved the Fountain Pen News clip this week!

  • Tamara

    Jealous of those Shadowave Parkers ;) One day… I’m still working on my standard Vac patterns.

    I love these broadcasts, thanks guys!

    @Stephen: funnily enough my wife met your mum on facebook. Best wishes from Hattem to Hoorn.

    • http://fpgeeks.com/ Dan Smith

      We love that you watch them, so thank you!

    • Stephen Brown

      I heard! Small world, huh :-) ?

  • Breck

    Diamine Ancient Copper is similar to: Diamine Ochre and Noodler Cayenne, at least on my monitor’s screen using Goulet swabs. It is a fine color for Autumn leaves along with these other two.
