Answer 1

Ok I thought i would answer my own Question as i have found a method that currently suits me. Alot of this has come from another answered question found here!

This method uses the basegameutil so going from Lee's answer from the link i can just have both my activities extend the BaseGameActivity and add the required methods.

I then create a new instance of the GoogleApiClient in my second activity and then get the api client like this:

mGoogleApiClient = getApiClient();

i can now pass this around my second activity and call the methods as i wish.

As Lee States in his answer, you can have multiple instances of the google api client and still wont be asked to sign in for each of them as it knows you are already signed in.
