Profile:

After embarking on three of Clubflat's biggest missions in the guise of No-Name in Newquay Renaissance 2009, Newquay 2010 and Barcelona 2011, 'Happy Larry' was born and became an official member of the Clubflat Team.  Happy Larry's light-hearted outlook on life means he always has a comical or cheery word to say.  With a voice that has a naturally excited tone to it, you'll never be feeling down for long in his company.  Even stories of misfortune are told in a fashion that makes you smile along with him.  People often make reference to Happy Larry looking like other people.  Having similar looks and with both sharing that enthusiastic tone in their voices, one of those people he's been likened to is comedian Michael McIntyre.  It's surely no coincidence then that one of Happy Larry's other look-alikes is Professor Brian Cox, world renowned physicist and who used to star in 90's band D:Ream with a wonder hit "Things Can Only Get Better".  Clearly there's a pattern of jovialness emerging here.  Now by day Happy Larry is quite a responsible role model, being a devoted Dad and a Partner at a firm of accountants.  But by night Happy Larry is quite an irresponsible role model.  You see Happy Larry likes to let his hair down, big time.  Once the amber nectar takes hold, Happy Larry takes on a whole new meaning of 'happy' and literally goes into a world of his own.  He has a penchant for storming the nearest podium in any bar or nightclub and will often go on solo missions working his way through the crowded dance floor.  On several occasions after having been 'missing in action' for some time, it's been assumed he's headed home.  However anyone who knows Happy Larry will know he would never be first back.  So it's essential before leaving any club to have a good look around first as you're sure to find him dancing away in some corner somewhere, or on some podium, or lost in the midst of a foam party.  It can be a bit of mission to locate Happy Larry at the end of the night and steer him in the right direction of the kebab house and it's this infamous trait which has spurned several of Happy Larry's other aliases below.  Happy Larry was also the creator of the term 'one-time-wear' shoes.  After a mental night in Newquay, Happy Larry woke up the next day and saw the state of what were previously the night before a pair of brand new white trainers (click here to see the state of them).  As everyone gasped at the astonishing state to get your new trainers in on just the first wear, Happy Larry simply made light of his loss by claiming they were "one-time-wear only".  A ray of sunshine for the Clubflat Team, Happy Larry's zest for a good night out is an example to us all.

 

Happy Larry Says: "Tonight's going to be a good one - I've got my one-time-wear shoes on".

 

Claim to Fame: "I once danced on the the Pope's podium".

 

Other Aliases:

Last Man Standing - Happy Larry often goes on solo dance missions working his way around the nightclub.  Just when you think none of your group are still left in the club with you, it's a safe bet that somewhere in there Happy Larry is still going.  You just need to look for and find him.  Nickname founded in Barcelona 2011.

Foot 'N Mouth - Whilst waiting in a queue to board a plane, Happy Larry's voice could be heard booming out above all others.  Having a surname of Foot, this nickname was inevitable.  Nickname founded in 2011.

Podium Nightmare - You're ready to call it a night but just know Happy Larry is still around somewhere in the nightclub on one of his solo missions.  Trying to find him and then guide him in the right direction to get back home can be mission impossible, especially if he spies another podium.  Nickname founded in Newquay 2010.
