I just ordered a TWSBI ECO in white with 1,1 mm italic nib, and some Diamine Antique Copper ink. Also I just tried J. Herbin 1670 Emeraud the Chivor for the first time. In a Pilot Parallel Pen 2,4 mm it works fine on Clairefontaine Trophée 120 ivoire paper, but on cheap white paper it feathers.
My prescription sunglasses are Ray-Ban Justin model, with 85% dark brown lenses (maximum darkness allowed for driving).

The next package is already on its way (I hope; at least I ordered and paid for it). A sunglasses pouch Phreak told me about (see above). Gusti Leder Colins.

A sneak peek into the RIMOWA aluminium suitcase I keep most of my knives in. The others are mainly spread around the car. One day in the future (this sounds like a fairy tale on purpose) I’ll take pictures of each of them …
While in a restaurant today in the evening I didn’t take everything out of the pockets, but a small dump () while waiting doesn’t hurt. TWBSI ECO, Lionsteel TM1, Filofax Guildford Mini Extra Slim.
