Cloud 23

So today I finished my afternoon shift early because Saturdays are pretty quiet, especially before the ski season. So I met up with Beccy and her parents after their gig; Jools Holland, for drinks in the bar in the tallest tower of Manchester called Cloud 23.
Gladly they were staying in the hotel and so we got in through the "priority line" otherwise it was a long long queue (about 1.5 hours). Once we were up there it was quiet disappointing, loud music, expensive drinks. I ordered a Cuban Sidecar and it came with orange juice in it! It's one redeeming feature was the view which was spectacular. Thank goodness we didn't queue for too long!
Anyway here's a picture I took looking west:

Yep, I agree, fantastic view but what disappointing utterly over priced drinks. You get a much better cocktail at Platt House!!

Steph,

Notwithstanding that you bought my drinks, which is a lovely gesture and which I am wholly grateful of, I am glad you agree.
