The second was the new type with cartridges and I had a similar experience to yours, except the ink squirted all over the maths teachers leg - right down her stocking. All the girls congratulated me, thinking I did it on purpose.BlossomFlowerGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771668346318423898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-6321730697094717992011-02-01T23:53:29.703-05:002011-02-01T23:53:29.703-05:00ha, I'm sure you're the only fountain pen ...ha, I'm sure you're the only fountain pen interpretation on the CDP site!<br />Good one!Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260829805068114560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-39445579708549728052011-02-01T22:41:12.300-05:002011-02-01T22:41:12.300-05:00very clever Birdman!very clever Birdman!Julie ScottsdaleDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14540864800524356267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-22559464481691437672011-02-01T21:08:16.747-05:002011-02-01T21:08:16.747-05:00I love your creative twist for today.
