Pens with legs

I needed some new pens. Went and bought myself a pack of 10 a fortnight ago. Since they were cheap i thought some of them might not work but they ALL worked and were also a nice pen to write with. Now how good was that Highlight of my week it was until i discovered they come with hidden legs and i now only have 5 left At this rate in another week i wont have any Where they have gone i dont know but i have some suspicions that it may have something to do with kids and a husband. I want my great buy good working pens back

Re: Pens with legs

My husband kept accusing us of nicking his pens. But he kept putting them in a pocket with holes in and we found a trail of pens from in the car all the way into the house and into his office plus I found he had 2 of mine.

Re: Pens with legs

I don't have any problems with anyone taking my pens, as there is only 2 of us in the house, and my husband certainly wouldn't pick up a pen unless it was dire emergency.He uses a carpenters pencil in his shed.
I do all the paper work here, and the most he has to do is sign them occasionally.My middle son gives me boxes of pens and note pads, as they are give aways at his company, also the green shopping bags as well.
We don't have plastic bags at the shops here. It's bring your own now.
But I certainly have favourite pens,they are the rubber coated ones that are easy to hold. Might be easier to mend the holes in his pockets. DW, Joan
