Description

Fictional story about two men who go out for a social drink and end up carrying a drunken man across Liverpool. The men go to a working men's club and sit down to chat at a table. It quickly becomes apparent that the man next to them is drunk and after he collapses on the floor they decide to take the incapacitated man home. After a long and arduous journey, punctuated by mishaps and bad luck, they arrive at the man's home. His wife informs them that he was staying at his sister's house next to the club and then asks where his wheelchair is.
