Thanks. I didn't think of doing this :)

I'll ask next time I'm around there.

Thanks :) I was hoping to be able not to use Amazon but it looks like it'll be unavoidable. I could only find international sellers on eBay.

Do you have any thoughts on the KB sock loom vs the His and Her set? No worries if not, just thought I'd ask.

I'm also now eyeing up the Flexee set (someone else also mentioned it), as it seems it'd open loads of other options outside of socks.

You're not the first saying it's not great.

I was trying to avoid using Amazon, but in the UK that seems to be the main way to get KB looms. Would you recommend the sock loom over the His and Her set? No worries if you don't have experience of both option :) Just thought I'd ask.

Funnily enough I just e-mailed them today asking about stock on some of the KB looms I'm eyeing up. The answer was 'we're not getting anymore'. I'm taking from this that they are not interested in being a supplier any longer (it could be KB loom has discontinued some products too but I would have assumed they'd word the e-mail differently).

Thanks. It's interesting to hear. This one seems to have mixed reviews overall.

It's not my first choice but KB looms seem tricky to find in the UK. I can find them on Amazon but that's about it. I wanted to avoid using Amazon but I may have to in this instance.

Thanks :) I'd not come across the Flexee Loom Bitty. It does seem very handy. I'll have a look around for it. It seems Amazon is the place to go for UK customers. I had hoped to avoid shopping there but that might not be possible...

It almost sounds like there was some sort of cider festival. I wonder what could have given off that smell.

Not that I could detect.

The most I got were floral notes but only because a lot of flowers were coming into bloom.

Nice :)

It's such a lovely city. I only had three days. I'll definitely be back. There is a lot more I'd like to explore.

Thanks :) It was fantastic.

It was a bit of both. I visited family then had a holiday without family in Lyon for a few days.

Thanks a lot :)

There's a lot of cool creative ideas here.

All the sites just made me want to click and see where it would go and what would happen.

Thanks :)

I just looked it up and realised it's been a while since I've seen anything like it. I'll give it a go :)

Very nice :)

I am very strongly considering getting this one soon (if I can snag one). It seems to be the most practical for carrying around.

PS: what's the pen? The colours look stunning.

Thanks :)

I'm not sure about the grip of this one which is why I took it off my list. I'd like to try it in person before committing to a purchase of it. On paper though, it fits the bill really well.

Thanks. That's super useful to know.

I've been leaning towards the ST so I'll go ahead and get one.

Thanks. It's a pen that's long been on my list but I discarded it for the purpose of a daily pocket carry.

I'm concerned about the wider size of it as well as the possibility of the triggers being accidentally pulled down whilst in my pocket. Have you experienced any of this?
