My ...How does he do it?!? What awe-inspiring work.<br /><br />My family just calls them "pens" or on rare occasions "ballpoint pens" (when differentiating from felt-tip pens, or gel pens, or fountain pens). To us, Bic is a specific brand name.<br /><br />:)Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-81148677466075856012012-10-22T16:22:20.000+01:002012-10-22T16:22:20.000+01:00Ici on parle du Bic, de preference en noir.

Thank you for pointing usto it, Angela.<br /><br />Incidentally, we were never allowed to use biros in secondary school. Apparently it made one "lazy" (not quite sure how!) - but for years after I loved using fountain pens. I now rarely use them however...but since then I have preferred roller ball pens to biros. I wonder if that is the influence of school!Fat Dormousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11061838276997211115noreply@blogger.com
