Hello young Albert

I’m doing ok, it’s the end of the weekend. Tried my hand at some craft stuff, making my own inks. When the zombie apocalypse comes I still want to be able to write.
 

Ummm... was a bit messy and I don’t think I used enough base material. The black worked well but I was trying sumac and it wasn’t a great success. There is always next weekend

[Albert1434]

Well that sounds like fun 

[Albert1434]

But I have a question why Ink?

[Albert1434]

[Bucket1]

The grand plan was to do watercolour Christmas cards with a calligraphy message using handmade inks - one of those crazy over ambitious projects

Trying something new partly because I found this awesome book on how to make ink, partly because I set myself for these sorts of crazy ideas

[Albert1434]

Well I love the sound of that and good luck on the Ink. I will be checking my mail for mine 

[Albert1434]

I do hope you will be including a picture of yourself 

[Bucket1]

I might need a backup plan

An etching of my speedo?

Or on a badge?  I have a badge machine

[Albert1434]

Well we do have many fine Inks

[Albert1434]

I do know your a bit over sensitive about speedo so just a plain photo

Actually Gary would have access to some good inks - the Toronto Ink Company makes them from foraged materials.

[Albert1434]

I don't think you can depend on Gary

I need to speak to my Dad about finding an old photo of mine. I used to have platinum blond hair as a kid. There is one of me pushing a wheelbarrow I got for Christmas.

The postage might be a bit much

[Albert1434]

Ok now I have to ask what color hair do you have?

It went mousey brown, now there are distinguished touches of grey but the buzz cut hides most of it. My philosophy now is if you wake up with bed hair, it’s time for a haircut. It’s less about fashion and more about easy maintenance 

[Albert1434]

Mine was dark brown now for the most part gray
