14:45 <Iskierka> ofc the french pen company sells actual quills

14:47 <egg> Iskierka: ?

14:47 <Iskierka> http://www.purepens.co.uk/acatalog/J-Herbin-Goose-Quill.html

14:47 <egg> ah, J Herbin

14:47 <egg> Iskierka: they're not so much a pen company as an ink company

14:47 <egg> well, and wax

14:48 <Iskierka> they sell some pens, pen accessories, and a quill

14:48 <Iskierka> so a pen company :p

14:48 <egg> yeah, but it's not their main business

14:48 <egg> those inks are good though https://www.jherbin.com/fountain_pen_inks.html

14:49 <egg> they make wax, I think that's the thing they started with https://www.jherbin.com/sealing_waxes.html

14:49 <Iskierka> I've only got perle noir but it is a fantastic one (very black and pretty much no bleed through), want them to get a 100ml bottle in stock

14:50 <egg> yup, have the same here :3

14:50 <egg> (also rouge caroubier)

14:50 <egg> (phl uses vert empire and lie de thé)

14:51 <Iskierka> the UK companies don't have many in stock so I just have the basic black. Sheaffer is a good alternative that is more reliable stock here

14:51 <Iskierka> though a few less colours, just a few basic solids that write well

15:23 <Iskierka> it looks like this uni provides library laptops for poor students, based on the thinkpad in another corner with a big full-size "UOM - Please do not remove from this library" sticker all across the back

15:23 <Iskierka> interesting fact: we're not in a library

15:31 <egg> haha

20:25 <Iskra> Why has someone abandoned Xbox 360 copies of FIFA 13 and codblops in this train's WC

20:29 <Pinkbeast> Iskra: Look in the other bogs to see if there's any games you actually want? :-)

20:36 <Iskra> Only one on this train and I'm not risking opening a game case left in the WC

20:39 <Iskra> Currently still in Lancashire

20:40 <Pinkbeast> Eh, I'm a soft Southerner, my mental map of that bit of the country is a blob marked "North"

22:04 <UmbralRaptor> Wait, I thought the consensus was that link was a trans boy?

22:06 <Iskierka> https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/shacknews/assets/editorial/2017/03/zelda-botw-gerudo-link.jpg clearly pretending not to be happy at that complement

22:07 <egg> compliment? or is set theory involved?

22:08 <Pinkbeast> Some people broke into the corral last night and stole all the cows that didn't steal themselves.

22:09 <Pinkbeast> They must have been Russelers.
