For those who have seen this blog off and on, apologies for my silence over the past year or so. I never realised that something as simple as a house move would result in a total halt of several of my various activities. I now promise to get back to business here and will upload a couple of fountain pen articles I had written over the past year, but never got down to scanning and posting. This should happen within a week!
