Split up

[fred]

I have to agree with Slip here. I don't know how long you were in a relationship but going from in a relationship to being really upset, now over it and on the look again all in one weekend doesn't sound to me like it was that serious in the first place.
Just my thoughts, sorry to sound too harsh.

When I was a kid I had to learn to use a fountain pen..It had to be cleaned ,maintained and cared for and loved...
Till the Biro`s came out then I slung it in the bin.
Its a disposable/replaceable world these days!!

Interesting analogy

I remember the days of the fountain pen too, then went onto cheap disposables which whilst useful they didn't give me the same pleasure as a thing of beauty and craftsmanship like a proper fountain pen.
Now I use a carbon fiber Dunhill fountain pen, which is a pleasure to hold

My writing looked real good till I got that huge ink blob all over the white paper...Blotting paper was no help..
You gotta love the Biro...I did...Best thing since sliced bread IMO.

See, that's what happens when you don't service and look after your pen on a regular basis. They have a tendency for overfilling
Have to disagree on bread as well, much prefer the loaf you slice yourself that way depending on your mood you can either have a small portion or a nice chunk Talking of which, I used to be a baker, hated the job but I kneeded the dough

Ive forgotten long ago since how to slice bread....The Mrs does is still pretty good though these days..
I reckon I must have trained her pretty well when she was young.

There's probably another 20 million waiting for your attentions.
