Lamy Fountain Pen Nib Confusion???

A while back I was sent a Lamy Safari in Pink as I had been wanting one for so long, I was a bit down at the time and one of my Twitter friends said they would send me theirs as they didn't use it. It was amazing when it arrived, it came with a pink Moleskine notebook and some pink ink, which was more purple, but still adorable!

I loved the pen so much, but then one day I noticed the Nib said F (Fine) so I decided to test it against my M (Medium) Blue Lamy Safari, which I had bought a few months prior to receiving my Pink Safari, which I love.

You can just about see the M, but you cannot really see the F

Pink = F
Blue = M

I did a little writing test with the Lamy's below...

There is hardly any difference, not enough for it to be noticeable when I am writing normally.

Has anyone else had this issue??

Is the Extra Fine noticeably finer??

First things first

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IRIS!!!!!!!!

This was what I came in to this morning!! There was another banner up BUT I took it down without realising, then I suddenly thought oh I need to take a photo!

My desk was covered in confetti, and do you see the two Chanel handbags on my screen, GST and PST, yes I'm a woman obsessed!!!

Now that I have shared all that with you and wished Iris a Happy Birthday!

On to my lovely new pen that I'm not too sure about!

I will show you the outside, you will probably guess what it is, this was after a bit of enabling from CP, but it wasn’t like that, she just told me how you can use it with pink ink!!! I have been wanting a fountain pen with pink ink for AGES! But I wanted it to be a pink fountain pen too but no luck!

I will show you all the pictures of my unveiling of my pen!

Isn’t she a beaut! Yes it’s the Lamy Safari in Turquoise! YAY!!!!

I have been using a parker pen for a long time now, ever since year 8 at school, I have been through 3 of the same parker pen, oh I love that pen!

Here is them next to each other!

I also did a few test so compare the writing capabilities, the Lamy is the lighter of the inks and the Parker is the darker!

So far I have found the Lamy to be a bit scratchy, does the nib settle in a bit? Its just slightly feels like there is a bit of resistance between the nib and paper as if I'm writing on sanding paper? Is that normal for the first few uses of it! But I love the way you hold it, it feels like its all snuggled up in my hand at home!

She is rather a chunky pen too!!!

I'm a smitten kitten so far, lets just hope she gets a bit looser!!

I also bought the following: -

The Body Shop – Vitamin E Rose Spray Mist, luxurious for hot days and times in the city when you just need to freshen up!

The Body Shop – Eye shadow pallet on sale! (I had a £5 voucher with my magazine and needed to get the Mist)
