About this deal

I am still yet to beat my Leuchtturm notebooks as the best all rounder, from what is readily available on the High Street. You have a delicious curry that you have just made or warmed up, you drop a couple of ladlefuls into your cherished Mintie Snug, perhaps with some rice the other side of the divider. For a change today, I thought to round off the month with a short tour of my “currently inked” fountain pens. As for the line spacing, whilst I still prefer to have a bit more breathing space, I think I can manage with it. There is a ribbon bookmark, an expanding pocket in the back cover, an elastic closer, and three sheets of sticker symbols which can be used in the diary, or elsewhere.

However this is probably necessary to help create an air tight seal around the nib in conjunction with the slip and seal inner cap. I have not set myself any particular goals or challenges for 2022 as far as the fountain pen hobby goes. I thought that it would be good to drill out the acrylic cap, just by about half a millimetre to get a little more headroom for my new nib. It is certainly a very impressive and presentable package and gives confidence that you have bought a top quality item. A sheet of rubbery material, sometimes sold to help unscrew jars, but which can be useful when pulling out a friction-fit nib and feed from a section, for cleaning or maintenance.This device was purchased originally to blow dust off camera lenses, but has since been re-purposed as a means of flushing nib sections with warm water. It is not, as I first thought, a huge mound of earth but a hollow structure made from scaffolding poles and then with an outer shell and covered with turf and real grass. The sight of my writing emerging in glossy-wet Serenity Blue ink on my Leuchtturm journal paper, enlarged and under the three bright LEDs, always lifts my spirits.

For larger, A5 journals, Paperchase once sold journals with bonded black leather covers, with 384 pages of smooth, lined paper, with a generous 10mm row height. A short glide down on the escalator and you enter a world of Montegrappas, Graf, Caran d’Ache and other exotica. The square, clear plastic lidded boxes are very handy for keeping fountain pens if not in current circulation. And yet I have a dozen or so of them in all different colours, with a Vista, some AL-Stars and even a Lamy Lx.I had not studied the map closely and it was literally only today, that I noticed the Semikolon Islands lying to south west of Australia! The seal fits around the inside of the lid which makes it more leak resistant than the standard A Slice of Green containers. Others have written about how to prepare for a pen show, to get the most out of the day and some good tips are to (a) have a budget, (b) make a list of anything in particular that you want to look for.

Paired with the large Opus it is a wonderful pen, perhaps a poor-man’s Conid bulkfiller, but a great long-haul writing tool.

I find that, for me, this needs a delicate balance of boldness and caution, of recklessness and restraint, of caring versus not caring. There was my Lamy 2000 fountain pen for example, which will forever remind me of a day trip to Brighton in May 2014. It turned out to be a very pleasing one, a rich dark beetroot tone which strangely reminded me of my favourite wax crayon in the colouring box at primary school.
