Yeak I had a bag like this and i belive a pair of bubble gum creepsole. On ink pen it had fat tip (cheap) and fine (more expensive) nuff shirt get damage and by the end of the day the bag had a blue stain because the cover had come off the pen, and then catridge pen came out and if you had one of those you were special.

Damn ting self
Fountain pens, by dey time you finish writing with one of those, ya index, and middle fingers have more ink dan dey paper. Only dey teacher wrote with a ballpoint pen. When i started form 1, that is when i started using the ballpoint pen -which was dey bess ting out. Same way back in standard 1 when dey spacing in dey copybook pages got smaller....gorm ah felt like ah adult oui. Did ya fountain pen leak ??? One time ah didn't cover it properly and by dey time ah reach ein school dey green bag tun blue and it didn't have ink in dey pen....Ms Salavy cut meh arse yes :devil:

Omar ah never had a lunch kit and so ah was envious of those who had one.  :(
Anybody gots ah bata bullet snap ?

lol - I remember the bag but I never had one

The flick was like somebody say to wear it on yuh forehead and let it rest on yuh back.

But fountain pens were the worse for me as I am left handed. When yuh write and the side of yuh hand with yuh little finger drags across the page it picks up all the ink and smudges what you just wrote. And if yuh was real high society, yuh had blotting paper which yuh use to rest on the page to pick up any excess ink.

Same with me, i'm left handed (artistic ent?) and I was force to write with it. But then i started writing with my right hand and found it was much easier to handle the smoothness of dey pen....so much now dat ah ambidexious and wid ah semi weak left hand, cause of lack of use uhmm  :angel:

Even when i was doing calligraphy, all the pen nibs were for right handed people. I had to actually curve my wrist in an inward position just to get dey strokes properly.  Gosh ah went to hell and back oui

Today only thing i can do with my left hand is write, everything else...yeah Capo, everything else wid my right hand. 8)
