    Default Hello from Australia

    Hello from Melbourne, Australia.

    I should introduce myself. I like fountain pens. Particularly old Pelikans. And Sheaffers. My daily writer for 19 years was a MB146.

    Now I particularly like the Pelikan100N and have had much pleasure collecting older pens and introducing others to products from the past.

    I like your forum.

    We look forward to the time when the power of love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.

    Thank you all. So nice to see I am not too alone in being excessively focussed on fountain pens.
