My name is Don and I live in Somerset in the UK. I have been a pen collector for most of my life and am now 86years old. I still have my school pen but really started collecting with the purchase of Sheaffer snorkel pen when I was 21 bought from a local stationer which, sadly, closed recently. I now have a collection of 93 fountain pens with my latest aquisition being a Diplomat excellence pen.
As, due to health problems, I am mostly confined to my house an on-line forum keeps my interest alive. I have been a member, now lapsed, of the Writing Equipment Society, which though, is a good organisation if one is able to attend meetings etc which, sadly I no longer am able to.
Best wishes to all other members of the forum.
Don.
