Cabbie invents pillow to stop him snoring

A cabbie has described how he saved his marriage - by inventing a pillow to stop him snoring.

Phil Moore, 42, was forced to sleep alone for five years because his loud snoring was too much for wife Stephanie, 43, banished to nights on the living room sofa.

His loud wheezing and spluttering, which sounds like a "steam train", caused a rift in the marriage. But Phil had a revelation when he designed a pillow to stop the snoring - and the idea came to him in a dream!

Now the new pillow is hitting shop shelves after a chance encounter with a patent lawyer in the back of his cab.
