We were made of beautiful things back in the 50's mate, the rationing on the parents waistline helped too but a Parker cartridge pen was the dogs back then. I do Calligraphy, my girls present to me was a tear in the eye.. Have a great New Year Ginge and best wishes, you certainly cheer this place up when you arrive and looking forward to much the same for the next 12 months..
Thanks Joe, wishing you all the best and your family. I despair at the state of letter writing these days which sadly died at the hands of computerism.
