(Don´t You) Monkey Me?

 
 
Let me take you to the "must" in Northbridge, the Brass Monkey. Well, this is a wooden one.
For some reason this time I failed to take a pic of the Brass ones. 
But of course I´ve shown you in 2024 already! Here goes again. 
 

 Here you see the beauty all over:
 

 And more for Tom´s Signs2, this is what you find at the women´s loo:
 

 Parfum and Syphills.... do not ask, just don´t... Take a super Strength Deodorant is the best option, maybe.... I recommend a shower instead, at home! Before you go.
 
 
 Super-refreshing! Who can resist ginger, eh? With a slice of limoni.

I think it’s wonderful that one can get such items like tampons, deodorant, etc. at a public bath. Great! This would help everyone, especially the homeless.

It does cost money, though. And it´s in a pub... You need to afford a drink or meal.

Hello,
I like the cute Brass Monkey signs. I am not sure if I would like ginger beer. Beautiful swan photo. Take care, have a great day!

Iris Flavia said...

It´s not real beer, it´s ginger in super-yum :-) To a great day, Eileen!

Ingo even looks a little sad. That vanity bar in the bathroom is interesting. Is the Brass Monkey that kind of place? Or are they just smart over there? I like the actual brass monkey sign, and wow, that place has been around for a long time. Happy rest of your day. hugs-Erika

I like that brass monkey sign. Erika's right -- Ingo does look sad!

Tom said...

...and Cheers to you, Iris!!!

Well... the holiday was over way too soon!!! The Brass is... I know it since 2006. A nice place. You´d like it, hugs!

Iris Flavia said...

That ginger beer sounds like it would be good on a hot day, Iris. Cool sign.

This Winter it was certainly cold enough to freeze den (?) Eier off a brass monkey. 🤣 Ginger beer with lime sounds very refreshing.

I love this brass monkey place. When I was young there used to be things like this in the public bathrooms but over the years they have been done away with. Too much vandalism. The drinks look so good and Ingo seems to be deep in thought. Have a nice day.

Back when I lived in Oregon, used to play darts at the Brass Horse tavern. Great place and memories.

Iris Flavia said...

Oh, yes, RedPat, so refreshing!

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, sure a cutie!

Iris Flavia said...

I sure was glad I was in Summer! Though some agreed with me - it was a cold Summer, rather! The drink was super-yummy!

Iris Flavia said...

Sad about vandalism! I think Perth is a nice city still, but you see people living in the street, yelling, too... only few, but it starts...

Iris Flavia said...

That sounds wonderful, too!

Iris Flavia said...

Oh, wish I could travel on - and will, at least here! Cheers to that!

Iris Flavia said...

It was yummy! Guess what you find in the men´s toilet...

Iris Flavia said...

Dear friend Linda, that makes me happy, too! Warm hugs and much love back!

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, it´s quite an icon in Northbridge!

You would never see things loike that in toilets here, the homeless and other thieves would steal the lot, or as much as they can carry, so none is ever provided. I like Ginger Beer and in summer I buy a pack of four small bottles for my Christmas treat. Also a four-pack of Apple Cider.

Iris Flavia said...

I think homeless cannot get in there. It´s a popular pub/hotel. Here I think I never saw ginger beer... so that was a real treat!
