LAST CALL AT THE BAR

One of the personal highlights of Grant's year has been catching up with his old university flatmates based in the UK. Lez (aka Jason Tipler) and Poos (aka Craig Humphey) have been in the UK since leaving Uni.. The lads met up in London on Saturday for the Harlequins v Bristol rugby match and a night out. The weekend served as a farewell to Grant before his return to New Zealand. As Grant had no going out clothes and with the call to "sharpen up", Lez his personal shopper decided for a going away present He and Poos would kit him out for the night. They walked in to NEXT in Richmond and purschased a full nightclubbing kit including dress jeans, shoes, socks and shirt.
No that's not mist -it's pouring with rain. Typical English rugby weather
The lads met Binit a former job placement student of Lez. He kindly played taxi for the lads on the night. Mandatory drinking of "Speights and Stienlager" at the Walkabout Bar in Shepherds Bush
The next day Grant and Lez went and met up with Craig and new son Finn in Weatherspoons Restaurant at Swiss Cottage.Uncle Lez was definitely a favourite of Finns. What a smile!
