Totally. If I have to record what people said in a meeting, accurately because I want to quote rather than summarise them, joined up writing is invaluable.

This is the downside. At the end of a meeting where I was responsible for taking minutes, I'd usually check back through my note book to make sure I could actually interpret what I'd written.

And in case people say - Why didn't I just record the meeting - there are still places where electronic recording devices are disallowed for security reasons.
