    It's not too bad

    You just get the gang tattoo with Baystate Blue...

    And you have to sacrifice a mod from FPN. We provide the obsidian knife.

    Oldstoat is right, you will also be introduced to the surgical scalpel uses in fountain pen repairs. You will even get introduced to the goat that Annie mentions often enough in this forum.

    Just don't forget to bring some of that imported paper that you mentioned back last year.

    I'll bring Tomoe and inky goodies (BungBox, Kingdom Note and L'Artisan Pastellier).......... but only if I'm spared the tattoo and knife!
    Mind you, you might not want me there. I kinda like FPN!

    We're not that bad really.

    Honest.

    We'll put the tattoo where it won't show...

    Ouch! I'd prefer to have it somewhere less sensitive.

    We are not worried about that. We are not of the jealous type.

    That's okay. All welcome no matter what side of the tracks you're from.

    A red pen, that sounds beautiful to my ears. Looking forward to see it.

    Since I am taking with me a bottle of Pelikan Edelstein Ruby Red you might want to fill it with this ink, in case of being a fountain pen of course.

    Please let me know in the next 48 hours if there is anything else you would like me to take to the meeting, actually that sounds too formal, initiat... I mean gathering is probably more correct.

    12pm I think. At the crack of dawn for some.

    Also I need to leave around 3:30pm to 4pm to meet my wife.

    Oh good grief. Try to keep up. Noon, okay? Would be good if you bring that pretty green Waterman.

    What's the form for bringing things like inks? Is it bottles or samples vials? And are you meeting upstairs or downstairs?

    In my case I am bringing the bottle and some empty sample vials and a pipette if I remember for whoever would like some of the ink.

    This time I do not think I can bring much more, unless there is a desperate need for something I can help with, as from there I am going to meet my wife and then with her and her family we are going to a concert (more about this when we meet LOL).

    We are meeting downstairs.

    Just do not forget there will be at least one initiation procedure!
