I was assured the lemon tart was really tart so I chose that for dessert. It was.
The Mr had fruit salad.

Awesome pics and reportage, Limes, as per.

As an aside - I keep reading the thread title as 'Another Joint'.

I wish I could treat you to a bottle of champagne (or your choice) for sharing this fantastic journey. As a matter of fact, get it, PM me, and I'll reimburse you.

I love every single one of these pictures. Hotel on a tidal causeway!

Breakfast is in the Ganges Room (well, it wouldn't do to have it in the ballroom, would it?!).

And of course there is a snooker room in the games corridor.

This is where the library is. And a table tennis room, with light fittings like this.

Two last cocktails. A martini and a Burgh Bramble (crėme de cassis, Pimm's No 1 and Ruby Port ).

Sorry I'm just catching up to this thread. It's an amazing location!

Do you see any evidence of utilities connecting this palace to the mainland? Cables? Plumbing?

Must be under ground or under the causeway.

"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!" Limey's Bear. :haha:
