New stuff! (from the Vancouver Pelikan Hub & Buchan's)

Happy October! Here's a quick shot of some very recent acquisitions -- a bottle of Pelikan Edelstein "Lapis Blue" ink and a Pelikan notepad from last Friday's Pelikan Hubs event in Vancouver (both were gifts from Pelikan to registered Hub attendees), a bottle of KWZ "Brown-Pink" ink I won as a Hub door prize 😀 (courtesy of Nikaido; the Vancouver Pen Shop also donated inks), and a Lamy Safari "Pina Colada" fountain pen & bottle of Pelikan 'Royal Blue' ink I purchased at Buchan's Kerrisdale Stationery just before the Hub lol.

Our Hubmaster (Vladan) did a great job organizing the Vancouver Pelikan Hub (thank you again, Vladan!). He posted photos from it here on the official Pelikan Hubs Facebook group, and our fellow Vancouver Pelikan Hub attendee Sherman posted his own pics here on the Canadian Fountain Pen Enthusiasts Facebook group (they're both private Facebook groups, so if you aren't on Facebook, you can view Sherman's photos on Dropbox here and the photos I took on my Instagram here).

I met a lot of nice folks at this year's Vancouver Pelikan Hub who weren't in our pen club. If you're one of them (or if you didn't attend the Hub, but would like to join our club :), you're very welcome to attend any of our pen club's meetings--just drop in (no RSVPs required) and see what we're all about! Our next meeting is on Saturday October 19 at the Kensington branch of the Vancouver Public Library from 11:30am - 2:00pm (full details in this post). Hope you can make it!

Best wishes,
~Maja
