Connector Pens

Kayleigh had a thing for connector pens - I don't know why. She started collecting them some time in primary school, I think that her nanny bought her the first 12 pen set - I can't remember. She had collected over 100 by the time she started Year 6 - unfortunately someone decided to steal them one day when Kayleigh was running an errand for the teacher. She came back and found all of her pens gone. We thought we knew who took them as Kayleigh saw this person with them and confronted them. They denied it, even though the evidence was clear. The teacher kept the class is trying to find out what had happened. The person eventually  gave some back, but by this stage they were all ruined - the writing bit was either mangled or pushed in - all of them were useless.

Kayleigh started again with a 36 pack. Monica, her babysitter gave her a few more. In year 7, she used to take all of them to school, until the weight broke her bag!!! In year 8, she let her class use them and many got ruined - Mr Mack said he would replace them bu never got the chance. At last count, Kayleigh had more than 250 connector pens.



All of Kayleigh's Connector pens - the ones that have the silver contact around the base are the ones she took to school :)
