Frances' Biro
 
Now I thought I was only person (sad enough) to notice that Frances from the Apprentice uses a sitty cheap pen. To my emense joy today, I picked up a copy of Heat Magazine c'mon boys I know that you all read it !

To find this printed

"Has anyone noticed that, as the weeks have gone by, we've seen more and more of Frances the secretary on The Apprentice? More to the point, have you seen her retro pen? It's one of those "four colours in one" (see pic below) Bic pens ! Is Sir Alan so tight that he will only fork out for a 98p pen rather than buy her four different ones? And what does she do all day but write multicoloured notes ?"
Charlotte, Nottingham

Those who know me, know that I have a pen/stationary 'problem'. I naturally assumed that I would be the only person sad enough to pick up on this very valid point raised by Charlotte in Nottingham.

I am glad I don't feel so alone now

Did anyone else notice Frances' pen?

Who's Frances?

What's the Apprentice? Some sort of sorcery thing?

Its hard to find a good pen. I like a pen that dispenses its ink on the page uniformly, not too heavy, with a smooth movement.

Sometimes, the cheap pens are best

Allegedly Frances (she's a hunny) is an actress and not his real PA.
But she's named after Big Al's real PA :confused:

A pen is a pen. Doesn't really matter unless you're a bit of a tart. (yes I spark up with a zippo... but that's because I like the taste of petrol honest)

And heat magazine? Get a life.
