    Yesterday I received 2 envelopes from the USA (one of my postcard pals) with presents for the London Geeks!

    OK, if anyone else is planning on joining us for lunch, please let me know now so that I can arrange for more seats and a bigger table (actually, maybe I should arrange that bigger table anyway given that it is the pen show meet ...).

    Plus if anybody has a TWSBI Vac700 that they can bring for me to play with I would appreciate that also.
    If anyone has something of mine that they would like to see, just let me know. The prime focus of the pens that I am bringing will be cheap, often overlooked German piston fillers but there will be exceptions. I am planning on something around 40 pens.

    I really think you need to change your name on the forum to oldbadger. For anyone who is confused by this, wait until the 5th and tell me I am wrong...

    Well Jeph, I am still looking for a suitable feed for my Osmia 223 - one of those fat-finned European-type feeds - 5.02mm diameter, should you happen to have any spares.

    Can someone please bring a Pilot VP to Sunday's gathering?

    Jeph wants to have a look at one.

    I don't have one, but I'm reasonably sure that Annie does.

    I might not be bringing any pens with me on Saturday except for one that needs nibbing and one that needs a nib repaired. I might buy some though, Ssshhh. And will someone please ftlog tell me the name of the pub we are having lunch in. There are quite a few round there.

    Sunday this time, David, Sunday - so that it coincides with the pen show.
