Weekend reflections: east meets west at The Shack @ShackNQ


The Shack is a new favourite bar of mine, spacious and glamorous in a retro, slightly kitsch, urban way- if that definition makes sense.

Anyway, a nice series of black and white murals includes Ian Brown of the Stone Roses giving the vees, then the Barnsley boy Billy Caspar from the classic Ken Loach film Kes (based on Barry Hines' book A kestrel for a knave) seemingly putting two fingers up across the pond to American icons Madonna and Eastwood...

Taking part in Weekend Reflections.

  3. Perfect photo for this theme...looks like the kind of bar I would enjoy visiting.

    I chose building reflections on the Arabian Sea from my Bandra West ( Mumbai )
    bedroom. Three more months to go until I return to San Francisco. The first three months have gone by quickly.

  6. That looks a fun place! I've Kes on my movie queue, though still trying to convince a reluctant Mr. L (who's the actual Brit) to watch it.
