I recently reinstalled it on a laptop it 039 s way too big for my phone now , so I launched it up to check on my status.

As a product of mostly British schools I stubbornly stick to quot ou quot vs. quot o quot spellings, although I 039 ve picked up the nasty habit of using quot z quot instead of quot s quot in a lot of places.

I 039 ll compare my progress later in the year, although I don 039 t expect significant progress, since I 039 m mainly crunching on a GRC pool. Still, I may add or switch around projects.
