A friend in England sent me a spare Parker from his collection because he felt so sorry for me. When I was at Staples today (on my walk back home from the Mechanics' Institute Library) I bought cartridges for the Sheaffer pens and a lovely leather-bound journal and a twosome of BIC® Wite-Out® Brand Correction Fluid (water-soluble) (needed for my "I can do it in ink" Sudoku and crossword errors) and a 4-pack (marked down $2!) of Bic 0.5mm Triumph 730R pens. We'll see if they write as swell as they look.
