Anybody for a drink?

Anybody for a drink?
The rather splendid Art Deco cocktail bar of Morecambe's Midland Hotel here. There are also splendid views of the sea too from these windows but with a centre of attraction like this, who needs views?

The glasses hang in different sizes from the ceiling - an innovative idea! :-)
Joke apart, you got a great pic! I'm wondering how it looks in the dark. Maybe you have the chance for a drink in the evening and take a cool picture? :-)

It does look a bit like upside down glasses Polly. Unfortunately this is some distance from my home (about 100km) so not very likely to visit anytime again soon, especially at night. A pity really, I bet it looks cool, as you say.

Wow! That's an extraordinary display - and really quite beautiful. That centerpiece is perfectly exposed and wonderfully detailed. You've done a great job with this Herb!

Keith once again you add your take on the technicalities of this photo too. Always good to see that, as it is getting rare for people to even think about that now. As you know, these compositions all need some thought and not finished untill it is posted here and I see such comments. My thanks for you to enjoy this. - Is it a wee dram?

Cheers, Herb

Keith Burton club has replied to Herb Riddle club

Hi Herb.
Well, I'm already inside this amazing bar in a splendid monochrome which enhances the glass decorations and the atmosphere itself.
Cheers to you and to Eileen, then !:-)

And cheers to you too Bea. It would have been nice to spend a longer time in here. You will have noticed no doubt that this is also the same hotel with the wonderful staircase. See new pip!

Ha ha Niel, yes it still has a bit of that reputation but we, on the day, found it pretty good here. This hotel here, is a real gem, if you can afford it! We are hoping the Eden project really gets of the ground -that should give Morecambe a real boost too. We also walked the coast around Heysham towards the power station and that was pretty scenic too.

Cheers, Herb
