Remember when they kept locking him up in solitary and he had that ball and kept throwing it? that's you. You have come so far, and achieved so much Our Bob.

Life sucks sometimes but you look round and remember what you have. You are you Bob - blooming funny, incredibly literate, amazing, hardworking, loving, kind, sensitive, a good person who is respected and loved by everyone family and friends. I cant think of anything better. I love having a Bob around. I haven't known you for long and already you have made the world a better place. So be happy ok. I think the world of you and am really glad i know you.:kisses3:

He will usually wake up briefly around 11pm and go to bed and yes he will sleep all the way through. The only time he will stay awake is if we go somewhere in the evening to the pub quiz- in which case he has an especially late night and is playing pool. He says if he is kept occupied or is doing something then he will stay awake. He does work long hours and lately it has been 6 days a week 7-7pm. That isn't always the case i have to say..but it has been the past two months. So as you can see very little time to get anything resolved and i need to pick my times carefully. He is also keen to avoid any conflicting conversations and it is not one to confront or argue.

Well that probably rules out sleep apnea, though the snoring is a good sign of that. I assume with him coming from up here he isn't a vegan, so that probably rules out anaemia...

Thyroid tests?

As for tackling him on the debt. I don't know about that. It's a good sign that he was feeling motivated with them disappearing, but that itself has probably been diminished with pressures from work and family and general tiredness.

Keep on with the "you want to use the car you pay" thing. He's probably spent virtually all his life believing that things happen by magic. The bills get paid by magic, your car fills with petrol by magic. Having the magic run short will be good for him.

I am fine SW honest:D I just thought i would explain, but i think i am upsetting you. Don't worry, i will just read blogs and cheer myself up.

This has also been going on for a long time so not to worry honest. I hope the posts aren't self pitying that is not how i want to come across..so i will shut up now.

Shut up about shutting up. This is your thread, it is for you to sound off about things...

Big hug ok. I wish you lived closer. Steve and Andy would make you cake. I would make you a curry and it would all be ok.

Mainly because you'd be focussed on the lava you were eating, and praying it had cooled by the time it got to the far end...

Money - the cause of so much unhappiness. Perhaps we should go back to trading in turnips. As in, "I'll swap you a sheep for a vat of turnips."

I know some women who get all they want just by waggling a couple of melons...

Is it because he reminds you of the joy a powerful motor throbbing between your legs can bring?

Okay, glad there was a resumption of normal service - sorry, Bob, I feel like that was my fault, thank heavens Z was here to round it all out again. I know its been a long slog for you, and I know you've gradually re-educated Mr Bob,

Mmmm.... lets see, what can I do to make it up .... do'nt even know any jokes ... but I can drool with you at Steve McQueen! That'll do nicely
