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.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
