JACK AND Tommy are on their annual St Patrick’s Week jaunt in New York and planning to hit the bars of The Big Apple with a vengeance.
Despite all the craic, Jack knows he wants something more out of life, but whose advice should he listen to? The in-the-know bar owner Stan, who sees great possibilities for Jack in New York? Or Tommy, whose motives may not be all in Jack’s interest?
