When Podge & Tubbs eventually move onto the next world and start a new chapter of adventures, they will most likely do so as ‘Paupers’ and most certainly not their bank managers best friends: But, they will have had some of the most most amazing adventures and will have seen so many parts of the world. They will always feel privileged to have done and seen so much.
