A terrific bloke and extensive knowledge on the subject matter. A few great surprises along with great company - I met Grant at the agreed meeting point. He was punctual and very friendly. We set off at a good pace and before long arrived at our first stop. It was well researched and Grant has terrific knowledge. Cheers Grant.
