59. I love learning languages and am currently fluent in French with a good knowledge of Dutch, Russian and German. Gave up on Polish, the spelling is too confusing! I also love fountain pens. My pride and joy is a Mont Blanc LeGrand Fountain Pen with a fine nib. 2nd is a 1953 Ford Motor Company 50th Anniversary Fountain Pen and stand. I also have two Waterman Carene fountain pens, a couple of Sheaffers and a few "everyday" fountain pens from France. Other past times are reading, writing, surfing the web, roller-blading, volleyball. Also like model railroads, model planes.
