So it’s been a while since my last post…not sure if it’s procrastination, laziness or a combination of both. Things have changed, there’s a danger over there in the USA, which has been exacerbated by the company He keeps.
The world is changing, for the worse I fear!

Why is it that whenever the 1st December rocks up, it seems that a mathematical ratio kicks in of amount of cash spent to amount of stress experienced, on a proportional rising trend the nearer it gets to the 25 ?

Today’s choice of fountain pen, the Muji fine nib, black kaweco ink. Love the simplicity of this pen plus its precision engineering.

Almost a week on the new platform and to be honest, I’m very pleasantly surprised! Usually by now the internet trolls and spite monkeys have found a way in to spoil the party but it looks not to have been the case so far!
I’m preferring the eclectic approach I’ve started here, so what to post next?
