Is this the Robert that lived in Koonawarra NSW? If it is I guess it would explain why I haven't heard from him in some time. I met him back in 1989 when my father sent me to go visit my aunt who was living with him and some other men in as Robert called it "a non practicing" home for alcoholics =) I've kept in touch with him ever since via mail but again, I've been sending letters but haven't heard from him for a while. If this truly is the same Robert, he will be greatly missed!!!
