Barlow offers Robbie helping hand on new album

Gary Barlow has offered to write for Robbie Williams if he goes through a "sticky patch" on his solo album.

'Patience' hitmaker Gary - who was estranged from his Take That bandmate until they reconciled in 2010 - is constantly writing new songs, and though he knows the 'Rudebox' singer is capable of penning his own material, is happy to help if needed.
