I'd love to see your handwriting if you would like to do it - it's something we all miss in this digital age I think! My handwriting has become a lot messier than it used to be, partly through dis-use but also because it's only me reading these days! At some point I switched from cursive (all my Uni notes were written in it) to some sort of hybrid printing/cursive thing - prinsive?

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to get your hand writing in real when I get my act together to get the letter project rolling.

A google being a number sounds right somehow - or if it isn't it should be!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you can't comment, I never know why some people have trouble and others not.
