Ok guys, not long now to the London Pen Show. Who,s going ?

Need a new battery for the camera.
Wanted list still being compiled.
Trade pens being tweaked.
Still time to increase the pen purchase pot.

Hope to be there as well. Well as long as the current crop of pens I have on eBay do well that is.

Hi Guys
Count me in. At the last London Pen-Botherers meeting DavidDecorator (from FPN), Annie and Ruifrom UK were all of the view that we should meet up in the coffee bar in the lobby of the hotel between 10 and 11, to make it more of social meet-up. All welcome!

Hi,

Just to confirm that if all goes well I'll be there as well.

At the moment my intent is to look for the black top of a vintage Conklin Clown fountain pen cap and a clip for a vintage Stephens fountain pen cap. A realised dream of course would be a Pelikan 400 NN EF at earthlike prices...

Also it would be nice if I could find a copy of Da Book short of ordering one from USA.

I will also be there, and it's looking promising that my eldest will be with me as well. He's been bitten by the FP bug well and truly:)

Good to know that the offspring has inherited an important trait. Looking forward to seeing you both.

He's got the hang of this alright. He will be looking for a pen to celebrate his new job.

The other pair both use FPs, and the middle one is mildly irritated that he can't really use an FP at college because he is studying motor vehicle maintenance. FPs and workshops don't mix.

It's handy all of us using FPs as the is always a decent inked pen to hand, and nobody complains when new inks etc arrive.

I loved that, but I couldn't seem to grasp anything I reached for. :-) Big plus your opening scene is a table of Visconti. Thanks so much for sharing!
