Hey, your handwriting is quite like mine except the "F" .. i dont write it that way. :D An absolute nostalgic moment after reading this post. I so miss the fountain pen... this has certainly prompted me to buy one, yes I don't own a fountain pen anymore :-/
I am the opposite of this, I dreaded the fountain pen and my handwriting has always been horrible. Handling the ink and the nib were a nightmare for me. Hands filled with ink and the nib broken every other day was a regular feature in my life. After my tenth I think my mom was the happiest when I moved to ball point pens, it was a little less messier for her, my teachers complain till date. To top this all my daughter now writes with gel pens and she is a ditto copy of me. Loved the post and admired your handwriting as well.
