Isherwood booked in for eye test

Bob Isherwood was back in Melbourne for a couple of days this week.

Always the good Samaritan, he agreed to stop by for a student Q&A session at his old college RMIT.

The gig was MC’d by a couple of final year ad students, Ed and Fran. That's them in the picture above.

A good time was had by all, with Bob being more than generous to the students with his time and wisdom.

As a show of thanks Ed and Fran had organised a bottle of Bob’s favourite wine, a ’76 Penfold’s Grange Hermitage.

Isherwood was completely overwhelmed. A bottle of Grange is never cheap, but the ’76 would usually set you back in excess of $1,000.

Chatting backstage with staff members, Bob took a closer look at the bottle and discovered he’d been well and truly duped.

Seems Ed and Fran had bought a cheap bottle of red and made up fake labels, which they aged with teabags and wine.

Nice one kids!
