    Very teeny, but I went through a notebook in which I used to write first drafts, and it was half-empty. I cut out the blank pages for note-making and such. It's good vintage paper that takes fountain pen ink well, and there are WAY more than three pages.
    My other pen is a Montblanc.

    And my other blog is a tumblr!


    And my latest ebook, for spooky wintery reading:

    Angry Orchard is yummy. You can always just drink it down a few swigs and then pour in a shot of fireball. It's like liquid pie as well.

    It's a little after 9am Sunday morning, so these are from Saturday:

    1. Used an expiring reward voucher during a sale and managed to buy a $100 skirt for $20.

    2. Went out to lunch with my beautiful daughter. It was lovely to have quality time, just the 2 of us.

    3. Early night with a big sleep.

    1. Pretty much perfect 6 day weekend. Three days in London, two new pens, Letters Live, burgers, pancakes, birthday, board games, bowling, pizza. Turning 30 ain't so bad after all!

    2. Purry Cat tramples when I get in to bed. I think if Doris had her way I would spend all my time in bed for her to cuddle. I'd be ok with that.

    3. Cuddles with tiny new niece in 3 days time!

    Three good things from my day?

    1. I have a roof over my head

    2. I have enough food to eat

    3. I have fountain pens and ink with which to write

    In the overall scheme of things, those make any day pretty darned good.

    1. It was a beautiful Autumn day and the streets are full of orange/red trees and scrunchy leaves

    2. An especially challenging assignment has worked out much better than I expected and I am rather proud of myself.

    3. Enjoyable walk with my wonderful little old dog who enjoys every element of his day.

    1. An afternoon which turned into a night in Brighton with a smattering of shoe shopping. One pair because I needed something sensible for work and another just because they are very cool.

    2. Small feet means I got the second pair in the kid section so no VAT.

    3. An early start to swing by a boot fair when I picked up this. It needs a clean - nothing else. I paid the man his asking price of £15 and left very quickly before he changed his mind.
