Tim loves pens! And he certainly has a great many pens in his collection.

First up, three very decorative pens which also light up. Good for cinema critics maybe?

A pen that has an ergonomic function, useful if you have problems gripping a pen. There is quite a large hole for you to put your finger through, which gives you an extra firm grip on the pen.

A pen that looks a bit like a rugby ball. You have to shake the pen to make the nib appear, but just turn the pen the other way up in order to get the nib to retract. A clever mechanism inside.

A ball point pen that comes with an inflatable cover. Tim is not quite sure what it is for!

A multi function pen with a smiling shark on the top! It lights up and plays a tune as well.

A pen disguised as a seal - or maybe a sea lion?

Finally a chunky pen with a plastic slinky attached to one end. Switch it on, and the slinky whirls around like a living thing!
