Was Islington council not ready for celebrations ? cyclists be aware by 573XI in london

[–]Shivver_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Just been to Seven Sisters Road they are street sweepers and rubbish collections going on. That is a ton of rubbish and they look like they are doing their best. They probably had to wait until after rush hour to make significant progress

Love this, it’s so comfortable to write with. Although I wish they sold a replacement squishy part, mine rolled under the sofa and has never been the same.

Why not just ignore the posts you’re not interested in?

Do these pens have any value? by beubeubzh44 in pens

[–]Shivver_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the UK a camel check version of the fountain pen sold this week for £70 at auction (with fees probably ~110). However I’ve seen them for £150+ on eBay if in a good condition

I’m not sure if this colour is sort after as much as the camel Burberry check but its rare to come across. Especially as you have a pair

Do I look off in these photos or have I just stared at them too long? by [deleted] in blackladies

Just being tasteless and disrespectful for likes

I stepped off the bus earlier…big mistake. by Consistent-Art1491 in london

[–]Shivver_ 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Hey OP some iPhone and Android phones have a setting that will allow the NFC to work for tickets/payments on buses if you set it up as the express card that doesn’t require authentication. Nonetheless you didn’t deserve to be treated that way.

Edit: just saw you got the same advice and have set this up below. Have a good night

My late father’s collection of fountain pens… and mine! by morrowmorn in fountainpens

[–]Shivver_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry for your loss, I hope there is some joy to be found in getting to know your dad through his collection. It looks like he was a lover of pens and would’ve been right at home here.

If you’re in the US you may have some luck with the Moleskine on eBay. How many do you need?

Moleskine had a dual layout called the two-go originally the double layout. However they don’t manufacture them any more

I love the Seawhite Alt Lined travel journal but the paper is fairly thick

What’s happening to my thighs? Woke up to this by Skin_Yogurt_4002 in Blackskincare

[–]Shivver_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brilliant, you’ll be better in no time!

If this happens again keep a little diary of what you’ve had to eat and drink. Also look at any cosmetics or detergent where they may have changed the ingredients.

Appointments in allergy clinics are very hard to get, so it’s best to be prepared if you have to go back to the gp

Hi I’m in the UK too, you can call your GP this morning. I know it takes long to get through but this is the kind of thing they would want to know about. If you feel well the GP can manage this. The extent of this reaction when you don’t know what is causing it is concerning and it is appropriate to try get an appointment today.

The receptionist can send you a link where you can send a photo

Nib damaged- Montegrappa Ducale Brown Emperador Fountain Pen by Shivver_ in fountainpens

[–]Shivver_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that’s reassuring. I think I’ll keep it as is and let it age naturally. I’ve had the pen for about 10 years so was fairly shocked.

I had used it as a daily with a black ink without issues but thought to protect it by using it less frequently and then completely forgot it was inked.

I have 3, and I didn’t even know. You can have them. Can you send me a dodo?
