Has anyone heard from Andrew of late? He seems to have fallen off the face of the earth recently.

Re: AndrewR
I had the same thought a couple of weeks ago.....he's not visited the forum since last November.
I hope all is well with him and his family, and that he is simply spending time on something more important than modelling. Best Wishes Andrew, whatever you are doing and wherever you are

Re: AndrewR
Yes I noticed that - I sent him a PM after the New Year and it's still in mu Outbox.

Re: AndrewR
I've been wondering about Andrew as well, Stuart. He was always on the forum and I believe he still holds the highest post count although he hasn't posted since last autumn. A very decent guy and it's a great shame he's disappeared - hopefully it's not for serious reasons such as health etc and that it's just a case of mojo malaise in which case he might just as suddenly reappear.

Re: AndrewR
Ditto, Shaun.
I know there were issues with work and, of course, with his son's health. It is a shame that he's gone quiet as this place was, I thought a bit of a respite for him from all the other issues he was having. I do hope he and his family are OK.

Re: AndrewR
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who missed his presence and thought about him. He used to post every day and always had something on the go. Just hope all is ok with him and his family.

Re: AndrewR
I, too, miss his contribution here.
I have not heard from him, but from poking about it seems that he is still contract teaching Physics at Carleton Univ so apparently he survived his "input" to the powers that be a couple years ago and a couple possible faculty strikes since. I cannot speak to his modeling or family, but certainly hope they are well.

Re: AndrewR
Tried e-mailing him today but the address he was using when we last corresponded doesn't appear to be in use anymore. Like everyone else said I hope all is well with him and his family.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Re: AndrewR
Hi all.
I just exchanged PM with Andrew. He is fine. Just busy with work and family. He plans on re-connecting with us soon.

Thanks for PMing him Jeff and that is great news indeed! I've missed his busy WW thread and bad jokes

Re: AndrewR
Phew, good to hear all is well. Although I've perhaps not had the same severity of problems they are in the same league as ones he once mentioned so empathise somewhat. Hope he's back soon.
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!!

Re: AndrewR
Nice to hear he's OK. Real life sometimes intervenes in trivial pursuits like glueing bits of plastic together.
