Definitely enjoying Parker’s antics. 🐈 Pens & Tea & Cat

Very cool concept!! The books I wish I could discover again for the first time... well so many! But I'll name 2 from Erin Morgensern: The Night Circus & The Starless Sea. I've re-read them (Circus prob 5 times) but to discover them anew would be amazing. For pens, I'd have to say it would be my first stub nib, TWSBI Diamond 580 Smoke & Rose Gold. It was my first pen over $100, first piston, first demonstrator, and discovering the stub nib... mind blown! It's a nail but it's also a gusher, so I love it. ✒ Yes to hearing about your #1 of all time... for both the pen and the book! And more Parker please ❤

Im a ginger cat mom too, so OBVIOUSLY i adore Parker's perfectly timed cameos! 😹 A video on your favourite all time pen seems hard and maybe a bit painful, but I am soooooo here for it if you are looking for a wild challenge for yourself!!

This video is a really nice and interesting one! Great idea! Also, still love Parker appearing in your videos. Pens I would like to use again for the first time: - a friend’s Shaeffer Targa. That was my first gold nib experience and I was so wowed! - my very first ever fountain pen as a kid. It broke after a few years but I remember it as being the nicest one I have had. The ones I got after that one weren’t as nice.

@impish22 Ай бұрын

the two on the list that I totally agree with is the Benu and the Pilot custom 823 for sure

Love Parker cameos!! Hello pretty kitty!! ❤🐈 there are so many pens I have not tried yet! I do adore my Benus and was so so surprised when I first used it!!

Yes, yes, yes, do a video on your favorite fp of all time. Do a video on the one you used to love but fell out with, ones you grew into or vice versa, ones you would not buy again, ones you wish you'd gotten sooner, or later, or again. Do videos on everything. Pu-leeez. I am so pleased you are back on the screen, and also the visits from Parker, and your clear adoration for the little fuzzbutt.

I’m curious what you use with glitter inks? Or if you use glitter inks at all?

Great video! Awesome cameo appearance by Parker! Pens and Tea…starring Parker! And you thought this was your channel??? 😂. Please do the video on your all time fave! For me, the pen I would want to try again for the first time is the Pilot 743. I was speechless and thrilled at the same time - my first gold nib. 😘 I recently bought the Pilot 823 (M) and am torturing myself by waiting to do my first inking and writing sample on January 1, 2025 with Diamine Oxblood. I’m so excited I’m not sure I can be so patient anymore!!! But I got my 743 to keep me happy! Thanks for the video! God bless you!

I held and tried a Pilot Custom Heritage 823 at Anderson Pens in Chicago in November 2022 and I didn't buy it there but could not think about anything until I ordered it. I didn't even know how much I needed it until I had it. Wonderful pen, worth more than it costs in my opinion.

Amazing Pens AND tea. Both my favorite

An interesting observation I’ve had recently is that for some reason, my Lamy 2K performs better on non-FP-friendly regular paper… (Anyway, Lamy 2000 is awesome)

I love the Parker cameos! Though she was around long enough this time that she may just be a Guest Star today.

@barbarajloriordan2697 Ай бұрын

I completely agree about the Diplomat Magnum. I own six or seven of them. My two favorite pens are the Pilot Metal Falcon with soft fine nib and the Franklin-Christoph 02 with fine SIG nib. I also appreciate the Pilot Prera with CIM (Cursive Italic Medium) nib.

@s.n.11 Ай бұрын

I become surprised by twsbi eco each time I charge it again. ❤ Also the Magnum Diplomat (currently inked) is one of my preferred ones. I love that nib and the fact that it is so light it's really to my liking.

@johnrobie7444 Ай бұрын

I definitely agree on loving the Diplomat Magnum nib, but being ambivalent at best on the rest of the pen. One of my favorite pens is a Jinhao 992 with a broad Magnum nib swapped in

Parker's antics reminds me of one of our cats, Juliet. She will ignore me all day long, but if I'm on the phone, she MUST have attention RIGHT NOW! She will pat the side of my face until i'm looking at her....lol They make life more interesting. 😊

Fascinating premise for a video. As it happens, today I got back a load of my favourite pens from home (where I haven't been since August). Oh wow, it was like NPD times loads! Surprising even me, the first one I inked up was a Sheaffer 330. It truly was like experiencing it again for the first time. The next one to get this will be my favourite - my humble Skyline Sport 😀

Great idea for a video! I've only been in fountain pens since 2021, so I haven't yet come to wish I could have a pen experience for the first time again. But, I will indulge myself and list a few books I wish I could read again for the first time! Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, A Deadly Education, Hench, and Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality.

This is a video everyone just getting into fps should watch! I do love my TWSBIs because I can put "difficult" inks in them without worrying. That said, the character of their nibs is wildly inconsistent. My 580 rose gold has a very bouncy M nib with some line variation, and I ink it only with Diamine Wine Divine, most of my ECOs are great, but some are the epitome of nail. I wonder why that is?? O, and HI PARKER!!!

Benu is such a lovely fountain pen company! They are stunning and celestial, yet such powerful and good quality. It's like if the silmarills were a fountain pen brand!!

The Diplomat Magnum is on sale for around $25 US at Pen Boutique. I understand the Canadian postal strike is now over. Having recently gotten my first Magnum from an estate sale, I must say it is a wonderful surprise.

@da2357 Ай бұрын

My pens that I wish I could retry over include a Pilot Custom 74, a Pilot Custom 743, a Sailor 1911L that was tuned by Mark Bacas, and a TWSBI Diamond 580 ALR. Love all these pens, am looking forward to trying out a BENU Euphoria sometime in early 2025.

Heck Yeah!!! Team Parker. Ink her Up....LOL!!! 🐱Your pens are not important anymore....LMAO!!! Just kidding. They could make a Van Diemans ink of her -- the orange Sheen, Green shimmer. YEP!!!

Yes! What’s your number one? For me that would be tough! Maybe too three!

Parker is the cutest-& that’s a lot considering I have 3 cats!! You should rename your channel Pens & Parker 😂

@barrettwbenton Ай бұрын

First off: some *serious* up-close-&-personal with Parker…he clearly knows how cute he is, and what he (thinks he) can get away with. I'm good with that. Secondly: one pen I sort-of wish I could try again is one that, IMO, wasn't ready for prime-time when it was first released: Lamy's Dialog 3. I was seriously deep into Lamy when the 3 was first announced, then delayed, then delayed *again* - by the time I finally got my mitts on one to try out, it was a year late in its release, and I unfortunately discovered why: the retracting nib mechanism allowed the nib on my example to shift position while writing, which to put it mildly was disconcerting. Lamy clearly painted themselves into a corner with the mechanical complexity of the thing. However, right after demo''ing that pen, I tried a Pilot Vanishing Point, just for the hell of it…and fell head-over-heels for it.That pen led to my buying a Pilot Custom 74, and finally not one, but *two* Custom 823s (F & M), which is where things stand over a decade later, and all the Lamys gone. First impressions really are that important.

I'm getting towards the end of the Mighty Nein campaign and I've stopped watching it because I don't want it to end. I have watched the specials so I do know what happens but as long as I don't watch the final series episode, in my head, that band of nut jobs is still adventuring. Also, I wish I could read The Hobbit for the first time again and try the Lamy 2000 again for the first time.
