Boys will be boys (or horses)

16 November 2012

At Riccarton Racecourse with best friends. Boys will be boys indeed, or in certain case horses! It was a great reunion of great friends and the Races was a perfect way to celebrate. Sunshine, beers and laughs - a recipe that makes the best memories. Cheers lads!
