eta: I forgot to say so specifically, but I hope the people who have ticked "something else interesting" will say what it was :-)

My handwriting can be very variable, and leans whichever way it feels like at the time. I write ones as the print '1', and use the European '7' (with crossbar) having spent *mumble* years working in Europe where this was the only way of avoiding confusion. I use both epsilon style upper case 'E' and the one that looks like a C with a cross bar, depending on how lazy I am feeling at the time (I prefer the Epsilon 'E').

I can write as fast in block capitals as handwriting, mainly due to too much time spent writing museum labels and site notebooks that others had to be able to read. Anything written as notes tends to become incomprehensible within about 12 hours unless I write it up neatly.
