Urgent help required - hole in suit jacket pocket with fountain pen stuck in lining

Being a rather dim-witted individual I need some help with this.

My fountain pen has slipped through a hole in the inside pocket of my suit jacket and is now languishing in the inner lining at the base of said jacket.

I have tried all sorts of digit-based dextrous tweezer-style efforsts to retrieve but to no avail.

Help please and suggestions as to how to retrieve pen before inevitable leakage renders jacket 'out of action'.

Do a handstand whilst wearing said jacket, and utilising the miracle of gravity, use your teeth and tongue to help coax the offending tool of scribe back through the hole from whence it came.

Buy a Bic and then wait for nature to take its course regarding your fountain pen.





You did say you had swallowed it? Or was I thinking about something else?

Cheers LB - just say goodbye to said jacket with such flippant disregard??

There are so many other domestic nightmares that haunt me now that I am living as a bachelor.

trouser leg on suit trousers - stiching comes out from the turn up inside and then flaps down - don;t know how to stich / sew it back properly.

Buying towels - why can;t I buy decent towels - why do they never come out of the washing machine all warm and fluffy.

Making Shepherds Pie - crap - tastes dull and bland.

Realising that hal your nice clothes are hand-wash only - ignoring it and then finding out that it will only fit Dean Cox.

DiY - no problems - making the home homely - rubbish. May as well go and live in a hotel.

Buy some Korbond Hemming web - all you have to do is iron in on and it'll stick together :)

And for the shepherds pie - add a dash of soy sauce!
