check his teeth thoroughly for damage or trapped food.
and as Tim says a check at the vets is in order.

Just looked can't see anything obvious but he wasn't staying that still tis strange

I would suspect a tooth or tongue problem especially if you notice an eye watering as well, I had a similar symptom with a springador that I hesitated, getting treated, as luck would have it he broke a tooth which I had extracted soon after, it was only the fact the vet xray'd the jaw that picked up an abscess

It may be a sign of stress, is it happening in the same environment? Scenario etc? Worth a thought.

I did wonder about that but nothings changed for him and was happening in my house were he's relaxed hasn't happened for a couple days now so hope it's sorted itself out
