The pen in your handbag...

I bought myself a link filofax pen it writes beautifully. Present to myself.

The pen in my handbag was a free gift from a coach company. Unfortunately it ran out recently so I need a replacement.

What pen....I can never find it. 😖

Just a generic cheapie

Nothing significant, just a bog-standard 0.5 needle-nib gel pen that I won't mind losing or lending and never getting back. My DH has several pens and pencils which it would destroy his sanity to lose, including a fountain pen he's had since his apprenticeship years (bumble-mumble years ago) and the two-inch stub of a chisel-leaded hand-sharpened woodworking pencil, the top quarter of an inch of which is taken up by a blackened rubber worn down to the metal. Oh well, it takes all sorts.

No, but it’s bright orange, I bought it at Stonehenge a couple of years ago. I like it because it’s so bright that it’s easy to find in my black lined bag, whereas I’m scrabbling around when I use nice, but subtle pens.

You mean pen(s) we used to have a team in a quiz night, so I always had a few, nothing special, the one I favour came out of a posh Christmas cracker!

I bought a really pretty pink glittery pen a few years back - it had gone missing, but I found it lurking in my bedside cabinet. The ink had dried - ordered refills yesterday …looking forward to using it again

What handbag?

It’s a nice biro, got 🍋 lemons on a grey background, writes nicely and I bought it for myself.
It lies in the bottom of my handbag and I’ve managed to not lose it so far.

Midgey - indeed what handbag? I tend to keep a pen, a chapstick and a nail file in each handbag. Just my wallet and keys and today's lipstick get transferred.

I'll have to rummage my other bags to find my decent pen.

Currently one with remembrance poppies bought from the British Legion stall the other day.

I’m sure pens have a life of their own - I am forever putting one in whichever bag I’m using but have few memories of taking one out.

A dear friend bought me a silver Swarowski pen which I treasure. It writes beautifully and hasn't needed a refill even though I've had it quite a few years. Before that it was a cheap pen which was a freebie.

Mines a bog standard biro. I’ve had nice pens in the past and end up losing them .

I never keep a pen in my handbag, I don’t spend money on much else but I do like a nice handbag, either Kipling or Radley. And after a pen leaking on the lining of one of my favourite bags I am not prepared to risk it, I prefer to make notes on my phone.
