    Lightbulb Hello, from the cold.

    Hey there everyone. I'm From Ontario Canada, and i just signed up, after doing a few post it occurred to me that i should swing by the welcoming commity.

    I recently purchased a Lamy Safari in Blue, with a regular nib. I also picked up a Bottle of Noodler's Ottoman Azure.

    I cant put it down, I'm finding reasons to write with it including and not limited to doing to-do's, signing up for pen pals, and writing family instead of sending email.

    If just wish i knew how the pen wrote a few years ago.

    I wish all the best to new users, and say hello to some of the ones with more knowlage, I look forward to contributing my 2 cents. However i look forward to reading more reveiws and other perspectives on the hobby.


    (edit: capitals where they shouldn't be.)

    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.

    I started with a Lamy Vista, which I still have an enjoy using. The Lamy is a good workhorse. Hope you will be participating in the discussions.

    Hello my fellow Canadian! If you can't put down your Lamy Safari (I know the feeling well) you could jump into InCoWriMo and really give it a workout! Hope you enjoy yourself here.
