They chew the fat, set the world to rights, take the piss… They talk about their wives, their kids, their kids’ pets, their football teams and – this being Ireland in 2011–12 –about the euro, the crash, the presidential election, the Queen’s visit. But these men are not parochial or small-minded; one of them knows where to find the missing Colonel Gaddafi (he’s working as a cleaner at Dublin Airport); they worry about Greek debt, the IMF and the bondholders ( whatever they might be); in their fashion, they mourn the deaths of Whitney Houston, Donna Summer, Davy Jones and Robin Gibb; and they ask each other the really important questions like ‘Would you ever let yourself be digitally enhanced?’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInspired by a year’s worth of news, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eTwo Pints\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e distils the essence of Roddy Doyle’s comic genius.
