Andy Lee has London run-in with ex-PM

Comedian Andy Lee has posted his joy about running into former Prime Minister Julia Gillard in London.

Lee posted a photo of himself and Gillard, standing in a street in London, on his Twitter account.

However, the Gold Logie nominee may have gone a step too far in thinking, just because Gillard's a former Labor Prime Minister that she's a big drinker.

"Best random London bump in ever. Might catch up with @JuliaGillard for 17 yard glasses later," Lee tweeted.

Lee may have made the assumption because former Labor Prime Minister Bob Hawke once set a drinking record that was good enough to be make the Guinness World Records.

Hawke skolled a yard of ale in 11 seconds while he was at Oxford college.
