Sean wonders about fountain pens

Sean wonders if people still use fountain pens, and thinks about nibs.

"Do people still use fountain pens?" Sean asks, "and I was also thinking, you remember years ago, the pens with the nib? Where did you get the spare nibs? Isn't that an awful word? Would you go into the shop, and ask, 'You wouldn't have a soft nib, would you?'"

Dave in Bangor, Sean you remind me of my powder-blue fountain pen, that I used doing my eleven plus. I still have it in the box in the house. I found it recently, and I showed it to my son. He was surprised it wasn't a quill, the rascal!"

With music from Engelbert Humperdinck, Don Williams, The Conquerors, and more.
