Mark and Sally are travelling to Amsterdam to celebrate Mark's fiftieth birthday at a Bruce Springsteen concert. Mark is not the success he wants to be, Sally feels neglected and lonely - and the journey across the Channel makes their unhappiness worse. For one thing, their old friend Gill is travelling with them and arouses conflicting emotions in Mark, who always had a soft spot for her; for another, she has brought along Karl, her rough and all-too-ready new boyfriend who knows a little too much about Amsterdam's seedier side...From these beginnings John Godber has crafted another salty comedy of social angst and the clash of cultures in his inimitable style and with much near-the-knuckle language.
