With the Covid19 restrictions, I am ending up with a growing surfeit of free ball-point pens. Many shops, stores, banks and offices don't want them back after I sign. Yesterday I got a genuine UPS Store clicker ball-point, but the pen-mugs are stuffed full and the glove boxes can take no more. When I drop them under the car seat, I hardly bother to retrieve them.

Pen people don't throw pens away.* Or do they?






* I've always wondered where away actually is.
