Whilst acquainting myself with the vast, vast product range from the lovely folks at Pilot, I couldn’t help noticing similarities between the logos on certain pens and the logos of certain bands…

• The Pilot VR Ball… mmmm… nice pen apparently. That liquid ink, it’s almost, well, velvety.

• The Multiball is a great pen. Can write on anything. Even metal!

I didn’t know that the Pilot Pen Company has such a big influence in rock n’ roll!

This nawty kittin looks rather alarmingly similar to our Sweeney. I do hope Sweeney doesn’t develop this ability to sit on top of door frames and light fittings, like a black and white mentil drop bear.

Well, it’s finally looking like we’ll be making a real start on our new jobs. The office has been officially handed over, and we’re hopefully going to be all connected very soon.

We’re both looking forward to getting stuck in. Getting paid to hang around doing nothing very much is nice, but I think actually doing the job will be fun. We have a whole lot of pens at home with us at the moment – samples from various manufacturers. May well post a bit about some of them later. The manufacturer that keeps impressing both of us most of all is Pentel – some really nice pens – gels, rollerballs, disposable fountain pens, pencils…

…sorry. Got to clean up some drool from my desk.

On one of my frequent trips to the ground…

It’s definitely falling over season for me. Last month I went apex over tangent on the path of our old house, temporarily breaking my computer and spraining my ankle and today I fell flat on my face outside work. Dunno what I tripped on, possibly part of a drain or something, but I went from fine upstanding newbie Devonian to embarrassing mess in the gutter in a heartbeat. My usual shock absorbers (hands and knees) took most of the force, but were assisted by my nose and mouth. Onlookers must have thought I was so pleased to finally be starting work that I was kissing the tarmac. As pleased I am to be part of the company, the town and these premises, I felt no such papal urges.

Seeing no stars, or birds, and feeling OK, I assumed I was OK. Until I saw Michael’s expression and heard his words of comfort…

Oh fuck!

…and then began teh gu5h1ng… I have never seen so much blood come out of me, or anyone this side of an early Peter Jackson film. And then it all went a bit swooshy, you know? When I got to see my reflection, I didn’t see me, I saw something vaguely resembling this…
