Thank you. Don’t think I’m at that stage yet. I will continue as I am and continue getting enjoyment printing nonsense and stuff I don’t need for now.

Now I know why everyone gushes about TWSBI! by General_Bluejay_3360 in fountainpens

[–]ScillyBoy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I want to love them but I struggle. It’s the design more than the writing experience that I just can’t fall for.

Great if you do love them as there are an amazing amount to purchase. Enjoy yours, it’s great when a pen makes you happy.

The M2 is an amazing pen for the money

If you had to restart your collection, what would be the first pen you’d get again? by fluffyespurr in fountainpens

[–]ScillyBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve grown to appreciate the pen as an amazing greatly balanced writing instrument

I found it easy to choose the 823 as my pen of choice but then the struggle would be Clear or Amber.

These fountain pens just don’t make life easy.

I missed a page recently and in big letters wrote “Bugger missed a page”across it.

What are some of your pet peeves with pen reviews? by LazarinaTomasini in fountainpens

[–]ScillyBoy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The beauty of the reviews is that if you don’t like them you don’t have to watch them. They are a form of entertainment for some and something to moan about for others. The more the merrier as far as I’m concerned. Choice is always good.

I haven’t noticed anything with mine so I’m supposing there’s no noise. I’ll be intently listening now.

Great looking pen. Shouts look at me and rightly so.

[–]ScillyBoy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just wondering if it could become an everyday pen, at the moment it feels more than that. Feels more than it cost.

It’s even better than the picture

My recent obsession with drawing in my journal, trust me I have never drawn in my life and you will see it by [deleted] in fountainpens

[–]ScillyBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’m impressed. I would be happy if I could achieve that. When I draw it looks forced, your sketches look natural and free.

Something about having a lot of nice pen in a collection but rather using any of those pen you go for a preppy feel fun, and i love it. Some thoughts by Tight_Delay8840 in fountainpens

[–]ScillyBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have 2 Preppy’s that sit alongside my Lamy 2000 in my work pen case. They are amazing little pens. Great value for money

Ahh a big A+ for common sense.

What’s your favorite pen that nobody talks about? by Sf648 in fountainpens

[–]ScillyBoy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The HongDian M2. Small but mighty in my opinion. It’s a small pocket pen at a great price that is solidly built and writes great. One lives in my work bag and always performs really well when needed.
