@hazardwarning I ordered sepia and forest black. Also the pigment sepia.
@hazardwarning I quite like the Platinum Carbon pen so I’ll try them in that — at £8 it’s not the end of the world if it gets gummed up, and it has a wider channel than most pens to allow for the carbon ink, so might be less prone to blockages too.
@hazardwarning I may have slipped a couple of them into the order that’s currently touring the west of England.
@jextxadore I hope some other parts of your trip make up for the tedious bits.

@phoneboy Funny how important sleep is. Probably your frequent jet lag doesn’t help either, but you’re probably stuck with just making the best of that.

@phoneboy Whatever the mechanism, it seems to be sending things the right way!

@hazardwarning And I’m running f.lux on my computer, so I’ll have to look at the colours in the morning.
@hazardwarning I don’t actually have any of those! I have Diamine Saddle Brown and Sepia, Iroshizuko yama-guri (which is my everyday ink), J Herbin Café des Îles, and Prout’s brown. Also walnut ink, which I love, but it’s not nice to fountain pens. I wanted a waterproof brown that would at least be ok to put in a cheap fountain pen, so I can use it for sketching and not have the entire page dyed if I use watercolour over the top.
