Ewe may remember one called Sheep Pens that people used to flock into

I'm a stationery geek and recently got a supply of 24 of these UB-157 Eye Fine in multi-colours

I've probably got 1000+ various pens as there's something about them that I just like, despite the fact that circumstances mean that I cannot write like I used to, I can type but the loss of feeling in my right hand means my writing soon fades to scribbles

Still that doesn't stop me buying them does it

I remember when 'Tempo' the first felt tip pen was launched. I wanted that pen. It was something like £2.00 and way out of my pocket money range, but it was new, exotic and unobtainable.

The adds were seductive. Smooth, spot free, deep black. It was sex. When I finally got one - ten years later - Meh!, anti-climax, like most of my life.

I had two pens bought for me from Eurodisney One with Mickey, the other with Minnie on top. When you write an led inside the figures light up. Cute and not quite kitsch.

Forgot to mention twenty Rotrings like draughtsmen used before CAD. I used them to copy old master drawings before I got a good collection of dip pens and mapping pens

I forgot the gilt boxed set of Faber colured pencils I got at the age of nine for not being a complete twat for a whole term.
