Like yarn, I have hardly ANY pens and pencils…..
And specifically, I have only a very small collection of fountain pens (just the four…..)…
So how could I resist when, in the course of stocking up on some gorgeously-colored ink via Bureau Direct…..
…..I noticed that Lamy’s annual special edition fountain pen was available. Well, I just couldn’t not add another purple pen to my stock, now, could I…… 🙂
With a good pen I write nicer, I do love great pens. this one is beautiful!

Oh I have been hankering after a good pen for years. I have looked at Lamy before but wasn’t confident about buying without trying. You have done the trying for me. Now I can do the buying. 🙂

Order done. No special editions left so I bought a green pen instead.

I will. I couldn’t believe how cheap the postage quote was. When I was ordering I saw something about email a friend and we will give a 10% discount or some such. Not sure exactly what that was about but you should send them your post and mention my purchase as a result. They may give you a discount. I can give you my order number via a Facebook message if you like.

When we at coffee this morning, we discussed the idea of how important penmanship was in our school curriculum when we were growing up. And we had to use a fountain pen. When I was in grade 6, we finally were able to use pens with cartridges instead of filling a fountain pen directly from an inkwell. Ah, those were the days….

Happy days indeed! When I was at school, we were taught to write in italic – with pencils first and then ink pens with italic nibs. I think we were the other way round to you – we started off with cartridges and felt very grown up when we graduated on to ink bottles – a ‘write of passage’ you might say!! 🙂

What I love most about your pen collection is that it tells us that you enjoy writing by hand and not always typing. I am the same.
