Update:

I've finally got a chance to talk to Roy today. He was showing me a problem with one of the machines. I asked him how quitting alcohol was going. He said he hadn't drank since Sunday night, which I knew was an absolute F*cking lie, so I pressed the matter, and asked if he thought it would be difficult to quit (I had no idea what to say). He made out like it would be a piece of cake, I assumed to get me to shut up.

I suppose it truly is hopeless. I keep picturing him either having a stroke, becoming so weak that he trips one morning, breaks a hip and then atrophies further while recovering from that, or he gets hurt on the property somehow.

I wonder if he knows that I give a F*ck? I'm thinking of trying again tomorrow.
