I didn't know about Bob Mortimer. I love him and now I love him even more.

Me too. He’s a super guy. Bought my hubby Bob’s autobiography and his Satsuma novel but I’ve yet to read both! I look forward to doing so, but I read online a couple of interviews re the RA pain and systemic issues he’s had. You can see on his TV fishing programme he’s got some mobility problems but he’s done really well to keep moving. Hasn’t stopped him getting out there in the rivers. 💗

I love Bob Mortimer, he so funny on Would I Lie To You. If you've got a few minutes spare go on YouTube and search for him on it. The one when he said he does his own dentistry and the one when he said he set fire to his house with a firework both are entertaining and funny.

I've read his autobiography and watched all the fishing programmes he's done and he hasn't mentioned his RA once which surprises me. He's recently said that due to RA he's been diagnosed with testicular vasculitis.
