I'd often wondered what people did on birthdays. Mine always pass unremarked upon, alas.
Anyway, have a great anniversary of your current incarnation!
(and make sure Murfie spoils you )

Happy Birthday, Migo! Those are some very nice prezzies!

Many happy returns!

Yes, isn't it nice? I fell in love with it when I saw and tried out Bogon07's Delta Vintage, in the same green colourway.
The nib is a steel EF. It has a really generous ink flow (as you can see from the writing sample, cos Alt Goldgrn is a fairly dry ink), and it has a very nice feel, quite firm but smooth, with a hint of feedback. Didn't even need a 'Magic-Murfie' nib tweak lol.

Thank you Cryptos. You must tell me when your birthday is and I'll make sure it doesn't go uncelebrated next time ☺️
And Murfie has already been spoiling me - as well as some wonderful pressies, he cooked me my favourite brekkie and is making his wonderful Lamb Biryani for dinner tonight. Double-yummy. He knows the way to this girl's heart LOL.

Happy birthday Migo. Very nice Delta indeed.
The size comparison with the m400 really puts the Basic into perspective.

Thanks Carl. The Delta is lovely.
Yes, the Basic is a much bigger pen. Yet, although I much prefer smaller dimensions all round for my pens, the Basic is a very comfortable pen to use. The nib is also a happy surprise. A generous ink flow & a smooth writer, with nice feedback.

I am to the point where birthdays are painful (but better than the alternative) but with a birthday like that I would look forward to them again!
Happy Birthday
A belated Happy Birthday, Migo!
Lovely pens and nice ink selection.
Did Murfie put a mini converter in the Vintage or did you use a cartridge.
I think it is hilarious Murfie has now had to order himself a red Vintage with medium nib .
I hope you are getting ready to enjoy your birthday dinner around now.
