Changing things around with my Diplomat Viper collection, just for fun, well, it makes me smile and isn’t that what it’s all about? Can’t wait for more colours to come out, I’d love a red Viper.
It’s actually surprisingly difficult to get the Vipers to play nicely together, their magnets can be a little overly attractive!
Yesterday I received two new pens, a beautiful Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age (one of my top grail pens) and the Kaweco Brass Sport. In my excitement to start using the Visconti I almost forgot about the Kaweco.
One of the first pens I bought was a Cult Pens Kaweco Sport in a glittery blue/pink with a lovely 1.1 stub nip. However, although I liked the nib and the size of the pen (I was planning a camping trip and this was the perfect pen to take) I didn’t like writing with it. Someone suggested I try the brass version and while buying the Visconti the Kaweco was almost an impulse buy, like a chocolate bar by the supermarket checkout.
I have to say, I love the brass Kaweco, I loved the 1.1 stub but I chose the <M> (thinking I can always swap nibs). The medium nib is lovely, wet and smooth. I love the weight of the brass and still enjoy the size of the Sport design. This will be my travelling pen from now on.
Oh, and the Visconti is a dream too, so worth the wait to buy it. I’m so happy to own it… but I am now eyeing my next grail pen. Does it ever end?
Just received my new pens from Cult Pens, a sweet Kaweco Brass Sport and one of my grail pens, the Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age. It’s just as beautiful as I thought it would be, now to ink it… but what ink to use?
Hi everyone, I was just wondering if anyone can recommend a decent plumber. I’ve had some bad experiences in the past so don’t want to just pick someone at random from a Google search list.
Thanks

Thank you to everyone who replied, problem solved.
I just bought a Moog Theremini to learn about the Theremin. So far I’ve been having fun just playing around, or rather messing around, with it and some of its presets. I was wondering if there was a good ‘learn the Theremin’ book (I learn better from books). I hope this post is ok for this group, if not I apologise.
I am working through Al Sweigart’s book ‘Python Programming Exercises, Gently Explained’ and just completed exercise 6:
“In English, ordinal numerals have suffixes such as the "th" in "30th" or "nd" in "2nd". Write an ordinalSuffix() function with an integer parameter named number and returns a string of the number with its ordinal suffix. For example, ordinalSuffix(42) should return the string
'42nd'.”
Can I improve my solution? I feel there must be a more pythonic way of doing this, I’m not very happy with converting the integer to a string and then to a list.
