Waiting at the Peugeot workshop next to Ikea. The mocha, latte, teh tarik and milo from their coffee machine is pretty good. Noodler's ahab with peranakan bullet proof ink + watercolour.

Was at a chocolate place along Portsdown Road with my wife. Good chocolate there. yum yum. It's nice that I can use watercolour with my pen lines with the waterproof noodler's bulletproof ink.

yakun coffeeshop sunday afternoon.

New zig writer pen + watercolour. The ink was waterproof so i could lay watercolour on top without it smudging. Plus the pen has some thick and thin variation depending on pressure. It's just not refillable like a fountain pen. (At least i don't know what ink to refill it with if I dismantle it.)
