I wasn’t replying to your post. I was mentioning it for the people who think cursive is taught in UK schools.

This is cursive: Cursive - Wikipedia

My dad who learnt english in Pak writes cursive (you can especially tell by the 'r’s) My mum who went to school in the UK in the late 60’s learnt cursive. I went to primary school throughout the 80’s and we had handwriting lessons which were italics and ‘joined-up’ but they weren’t teaching proper cursive script. Even that has been toned down a lot now.

We learnt the lower case letters like that link, but not the uppercase so maybe it wasn’t cursive that we were learning then.
