#25234 Really?

Posted by cedargirl on 16 May 2013 - 07:21 AM in Say Hello!

Hi Manny

I'm glad The Amalgamated Beungaling Society has made it to this board too.



#25929 Take the Quiz

Another: Is "route 1" pronounced "root 1", like the root of a tree, or "rout 1", as in "Washington routed Denver in Super Bowl 22".


Wow. That's interesting. I thought all Americans said "rout" not "root". Seems some of you speak English after all ... [runs for cover!]



#27065 They're at it again over at the FPN..

Posted by cedargirl on 14 July 2013 - 11:55 PM in Elements of Collecting: Hunting, Valuing and Polemicizing

I think I have reached a happy medium with FPN. I do visit - there is a lot of good info there.
I do post occasionally, but mostly view.
But here is where I draw the line - I do not visit their classifieds any more. I will not buy from FPN. So if they want to sell to me (hey, of course they do!), they better list elsewhere.

Thank you very much David. "End of day" says it all.



#24180 What's with this?

I just came across this vintage pen - unknown maker.

Have a look at the colouring. Looks like it's made of bits of leftovers.

I guess this might be very familiar to some here, and it's just me that thinks it unusual.

Can anyone shed any light on it?

The listing is here - with more photos - My link



#27293 Why should I want waterproof ink?

Posted by cedargirl on 27 July 2013 - 10:55 AM in Miscellanea: Ink, Paper, Calligraphy, Journals, Storage, Turning, etc

I don't need all my ink to be waterproof. I do like to address envelopes and sign cheques with waterproof ink, so I do make sure I always have at least one bottle available.
It is a need for those people who use it in pen and wash sketching.

I am as baffled as you with the "unfortunately it's not waterproof so it won't make it into my collection" line that I read quite often.
