The pub crawl happens every year on the weekend closest to Waitangi Day, with huge masses of crowds making the journey around the Circle Line. They had 8000 people last year, and I would guess that it was much the same this year.
Here is Sarah getting ready to leave with her taste of Kiwiana: mini bottles of 42 below Vodka mmmmm.......
First stop for us was South Kensington at the Zetland Arms. Had run into Fraser on the platform from Clapham, so he joined in with the 14 girls for this leg. We managed to shut down a few roads in the process....
Next stop was Victoria where we managed to meet up with a whole crowd of people from uni, including Kat and Jeremy:
Sarah getting into the swing of things - the 42 below starting to take effect!
On the platform at Victoria station: Sandy, Lucinda, Sarah and Clare
Fras and Alli:
And the scene at Westminster. We managed to get there early enough, but because of the crowds we didn't get to see any of the haka - but it was still a fantastic day and one that I'm sure I will be repeating! Hamish had originally decided that he didn't want a bar of it, but he must have got lonely, as he downed a wine at home and made it to Westminster to join us in the afternoon :)
With Big Ben in the background:
