I've seen him logged in on frequent occasions over the last few days..

He's about, just being very quiet...

I' s sure he'll soon be posting again...

Switched off the laptop and I got it...all 18 of 'em!

In the time that it's still installing them, I took a picture 'avec phone', downloaded photbucket app and posted it on here. Android system, obviously!

...and it's still installing. On 11 ATM...
