Businessman Alan Bland is facing retirement and has devised an ingenious plan for the future of the family firm. The question is: how do Eddie and Martin - his drunken, layabout sons and heirs - fit into his manipulative plot? In drinking holes from Brighton to Newcastle, this hilarious story follows Eddie and Martin on their endless benders - where breakfast is the contents of a hipflask and, many pints later, dinner is a packet of crisps and a pickled egg. This is a funny yet tragic tale of family ties and lives dominated by alcohol.
