    Absolutely, Dr. Boyle.

    But as you know, online diagnosis is always tricky, and in DervProf's case, a course of Citalopram or Fluoxetine (20mg) might be advisable before considering sectioning.

    You are correct, online diagnosis is always tricky. Too tricky for you anyway.

    I need no antidepressants.

    I'm sure Dr. Pricklepants will concur with my diagnosis in this case.

    I'm sure that Dr. Pricklepants would love to lance the Boyle.

    I reckon he may have done it already.

    I did expose RenoMan as a "show off" a while ago. Rather than discussing the property market and the economy, he (more than others) kept going on about how "clever" he'd been. That's all well and good. He admitted that he'd taken a bit of a gamble on interest rates, and it was paying off, but did he go on about it rather a lot !

    He's not a show off, he is indeed very clever. He's entitled to boast as he has a job earning almost £70k and we have a wonderful 5 bedroom house.

    He actually posted some photographs of our house on this forum a couple of years ago but they seem to have been deleted.

    However I'll retrieve them as I have some very clever retrieval software and then repost them on here so that you can see how well he has done.

    Judging by recent posts diagnosis appears to be schizoaffective disorder.

    Perhaps lithium will be the next prescription needed?

    He is indeed very clever and Oldham must be very scenic this time of year.
