    Angry You ain't gonna believe it !

    Some of you may know I recently started a new job, middle of August actually after having been made redundant when my old company closed their offices.

    Well today my new employer went under, so I join the queue of the unemployed. Oh joy.

    Couldn't pick a better time...not.

    I have no good news yet. But I'll keep you posted.

    In the meantime if you want scales, send me work as I have plenty of time and need the dosh.

    Cheers all.

    Gary,

    Sorry to hear this! Maybe you could offer scales with a matching fountain pen! That would be a neat combination. Shave, and then record it for posterity! Best of luck in your search for work!

    Good attitude. I'm a firm believer that things always work out for the best, although sometimes it is hard to understand at the present time. I'd vote for a forum Fountain Pen, that you could construct and build!

    That really blows Gary. Good luck on finding a new job and in the meantime you'll just have to flood the market with your quality homemade stuff. I understand you make pens as well?
