….handwriting?

Is it legible to the everyday person or else does it resemble something that would likely stump even the Enigma device?

Dreadful. I have to print in capitals or I can’t read anything I’ve put down.

I'm told it's quite neat. That's the case when I'm in a methodical frame of mind. When not, we're in cat across the page territory!!

Depends how quickly I'm writing.

I can write very neatly, our wedding invitations and place cards were handwritten by me.

I used to have lovely handwriting but in these days of texting, emails etc it’s not something I do much of, when I do it looks terrible now

God knows. I don't have to write anything at all during my day job as everyone is done on the laptop.

Maybe I need to make sure I haven't forgotten how to, considering Christmas cards will need done shortly..

Sometimes it's neat, sometimes it's kind of a mess. Mostly depends on if I can be bothered taking the time or if it's just another form that needs filling out.

If I write a birthday card or something others will read it is neat and complimented on. If I scribble for myself it's all over the place.

I used to have beautiful handwriting and I'd get comments about it, I'd get asked to write wedding invitations and the like.

These days though, I can barely hold a pen correctly and sometimes can't even ready own scrawl

Properly neat and all correctly formed for me, Silverback not so much, to the point where our youngest had a strop at him for not writing an 'a' correctly the other day!!

Has anyone here ever witnessed either a GP or else a maths teacher with neat handwriting?

Never seen a doctor full stop with neat handwriting.

I'm also really good at maths so maybe that explains mine

Quite neat unless I'm having to quickly write something down and then illegible would be generous. Very generous.

If I concentrate and have time and a decent pencil it's good. My lab books are illegible, there are sections that even I struggle with.

I get hand cramps too, the amount of arm waving in exams when I was younger was ridiculous

I hardly ever write anymore as all my work is computer based, so when I do write, it looks like a stereotypical Doctor's writing after they've had an accident with a mangle.

So not great.

It’s absolutely shit. Thumbs are so stiff and sore where they attach (especially in winter) to the hand that using a pen for more than a sentence is torture. Got collared off a security guard at a factory we were doing some civils at a few weeks back showed me the days before sign in copy and said what the fuck is that haha
