fred_mouse: line drawing of sheep coloured in queer flag colours with dream bubble reading 'dreamwidth' (Default)
When I went out and purchased the assorted items on the booklists for the bagusii, I was completely stumped by the line item "Safety Markers Fine point colour 12-Micador". After discussion with said bagusii, who had no idea what I was talking about, we resorted to that age old approach to difficult problems - we ignored it.

But today, we are all at home, and I've decided that the thing most annoying me is the veneer of school stationery lying around. I'm partway through sorting, labelling, opening, ticking off the items for middlest (who got to go first, by dint of having the first booklist to hand). And back to 'Safety markers". ?????

Solution: google it. Oh, *felt tips*. *facepalm* I'm sure there was something that fit that description at the time.

Query - what term would you use to describe these items? When I was a kid they were 'Textas', but now Texta is a brand that sells lots of other items (it may well have then - I have very selective memory).
