If thats the same KR, he was on my OCU crew. I remember the arrival (2 legged) beer call (or rather dont) and then him turning up late for a lecture the next day with one leg and me thinking "bloody hell I know it was a good beer call but what did HE get up to!!!'. Before common sense and sobriety prevailed...
