Alastair,

Are you willing to order from the USA? That opens up some new vistas.

Alastair:

>what fountain pen  should a letter writing LUGGER be using ;-)

Waterman Phileas is the best value for the money that I've found:

=42

I've lost one.  But who cares?  It was $25.  Writes just as smoothly--if
not more--as my $200 Pelikan.  (I have nothing but good experiences with
Fountain Pen Hospital.)

This is another favorite, the Dani Phantas I:

I just love the snakes.  :)  (I don't remember where I bought mine from.
I'm not endorsing pen executive...just happened to find a picture
there.)
