    Arrow Queens Hotel Roof, 31/7/10 - ARCHIVE

    First time doing a high building for me and good old cloughandfowle2 and i can assure you it certainly wont be the last one we do. After spending 10 minutes or so deciding if we would dare get out onto the roof through that seemingly tiny hole we went for it. It was a really good night and its just amazing being up on the roof with nobody knowing your there whilst you look down on all the drunk chavs heading for flares. On the way out after being up there for a couple of hours we exited past the 2 doormen with a smug grin never to be seen again :P haha

    anyway heres my pics from the night, i wish i could get longer exposures though. i think an upgrade is instore seeing as i cant even get a compatible remote shutter release



















    the door was open so why not go in ?






    thankyou

    yeah its the lift machinery, we heard it running as we were creeping past and thought it was somebody in there, but finally built up the courage to just wander in and check it out. Its good to know that we could have easily just turned off both of the lifts leaving all guests to carry their cases all the way up the stairs :P haha
