The customer who`s bathroom I was tiling prior to Woody`s get together had told me her Granddaughter had just started "joined up"
writing at school & the schools requirement was for the children to use rollerball pens. She was bemoaning the fact that although she wanted to treat the child to a nice pen, she was struggling to find one.

I didn't let on I turned pens so hopefully not only will this fit the bill but it will be a nice surprise to both Grandma & Granddaughter.

Hope to take it over on Tuesday when I go to do the finishing touches to the bathroom.

Linked to the wrong photo Woody, you're just too quick for me, sorted now :goesred:

Re senior moments, it must be catching I didn`t suffer from them until I joined this place :thinks::thinks: must be Terry`s fault, most things seem to be :funny::funny::funny:

Lovely pen and a lovely story, Doug! I'm sure it will appreciated and loved. And if some rat at the kid's school steals it (as happened to a good few of my treasured school pens) I hope that the fleas of a thousand camels infest the little beggar's armpits!

Not sure I am keen on the kit but the pen itself look cool probably better without the hat on.
Stunning finish mate you don't need any lessons there do ya?
