Richard,

That's a lovely compliment but the picture I posted was Grace Slick, former lead singer for Jefferson Airplane. You're right, she has great hair and left modeling for a singing career.

LOL! Twas a joke!

"In nineteen hundred and seventy five, all my people rose from the countryside.

Locked together hand in hand, all through this unsteady land!"

Oh, yeah. I know Gracie Slick and JA. From about 35 years ago.

I'm relieved, and thought you might have been joking. But as we both know, in cyberspace you can't take anything for granted.

I should have put a or a or a after my comments.

Faith you have beautiful penmanship, something I've always taken pride in. Recently I found some recipies that my mom had hand written many years ago (at least 50). I was amazed how much it resembeld my own handwriting. How about yours?

Hey Boyd, hope you're well. Thanks, now that you mention it, I believe my writing is similar to my mother's. We should probably start a thread of handwriting samples!

This is interesting as my handwriting is very similar to my Mum's!
How did you get on with your Pelikan Faith?

My quest for the Pelikan was delayed for a couple of days . . . I had a maintenance man come in to make a repair. He swung the door open, knocked over my stand holding two Bowflex weights, the plates went flying in every direction, and ultimately, the heaviest one landed on my DVD player, breaking it. Replacing that has become my priority, so hopefully later today I will contact Holt's and let you know what's going on.

I'm sorry to hear about your DVD misfortune. I hope this doesn't postpone your pen purchase for too long.

Anyway, maybe it will give you more time to consider, perhaps you might consider a Montblanc

There is a quaint old term for that which originates from my birth country..BUGGER
I hope you managed to get a better DVD player that is on sale at a huge discount That will allow you to leap straight ahead as Steve say's to a Mont Blanc

I just got off of the phone with Lee from Holt's Cigars who stated they had the Pelikan 800 in stock but not the Pelikan 205. He will be checking with his vendors and calling me this upcoming week. I'm also going to check with Bromfield's Pen Shop to inquire about about Pelikans and MBs. (I would only want the MB FP if I could acquire it in the Bordeaux to match the BP and RB.)
You guys should really check out Bromfield's, selection & prices are excellent and they will ship your order as soon as it's placed!


P.S. Picked up a new Sony DVD player this morning, and will shield this one from klutzes!

Well done on the new DVD player Faith, I just got one for a friend of mine this week and she loves the picture quality on it!

The 800 is a very nice pen but it is much larger than the 205. Having said that I prefer larger pens (and I have small hands) as they are more comfortable to write with for longer periods of time (as long as they are not heavy!).

Thanks for the info on Broomfields, I will google them now!
