Would you say you can read the handwriting in most documents in the Royals Society archive? How long did it take you to get comfortable reading these old documents.

My girlfriend wants to know: 1.) She just got an MS in Forensics science, how does she get a job like yours, is it too late? 2.) What's your favorite type of Tea? 3.) She thinks you're cute, which isn't a question, but I thought it was worth passing on. We both love the awesome content, thanks for showing us all around the archives!
