    Default Hello from Bath, UK

    Hi there, I'm a new member currently living in Bath, UK. I'm an astrophysicist who spends a lot of time on trains commuting to my university, and have been spending an increasing amount of time with my fountain pens as a result.

    I have only recently started down the slippery slope of collecting seriously, after years of owning just a few fountain pens. I currently have a several Lamy Safaris, Al-Stars and the 2000 (EF), a Pilot Capless(VP), TWSBI Eco-T and Vac700R (with an architect grind from fpnibs.com) some Crosses and a variety of interesting Chinese mid-level pens, (Hero 1000, WS 601s Draw Filler and Vacumatic, various models of PenBBS, Hero H718 and more). I also recently purchased an Opus 88 clear demonstrator which I've equipped with a semi-flex 14kt nib from fpnibs. I also just picked up a Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age (oversize) which was my grail pen, as a reward for getting a new job.

    Oh yes, I've got a few of those already! I had to pick them up from America when I was there for a conference 2 weeks ago, since they are prohibitively expensive in the UK at the moment.

    Welcome from the Lone Star Planet! That's a great set of pens and an interesting profession as well.

    Once you’ve considered these factors, you can begin shopping for a toilet. There are many types of toilets to choose from, including one-piece, two-piece, and wall-mounted models. One-piece toilets are the most popular option, as they are easier to install and take up less space. Two-piece toilets are more versatile, and can be used with a variety of toilet seats. Wall-mounted toilets are great for tight spaces, and can be installed at the desired height. https://toiletroomguide.com/best-handicapped-toilet/
