VINTAGE BIC TRIANGLE-SHAPED OVERSIZED BIROS OR PENS

Margaret from Paparangi

Has anyone got any of these pens lying around unused, VINTAGE BIC TRIANGLE-SHAPED OVERSIZED BIROS OR PENS, also on the lookout for some refills. I have found a pencil which is great, but alas no pens, I can't even recall what years these were manufactured and sold? The reason I ask is, I have lost the fine motor use of 2 fingers and my thumb, pending a scan to ascertain the reason for this, (I have joined the many thousands of New Zealanders having to wait for scans, etc), I have found my writing is affected, but these pens are just the right thickness and shape to enable me to grip and produce, at least, semi-literate hand writing! Please let me know.

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.
