Party at the Old Electric Shop

The Old Electric Shop used to be the Jigsaw and Teddy Bear shop, so it's a big place with lots of alcoves - one of which has now been transformed into a cocktail bar. The rest of the space is filled with vintage clothes, and an illustrator's studio and art and vintage furniture. The name comes from the fact that they started out at the old SWALEC shop in Castle Street (now House of Vintage), and moved down the hill later. They have a license for occasional sale of alcohol, and Emanation took advantage of their cocktail happy hour to have her birthday party there.
In fact, Bluebelle, at the bar, created a shot just for Emanation, made with absinthe, red vermouth and marmalade syrup. It was delicious (and I'm really not a cocktail drinker)!
There was a DJ as well, and Emanation was given her very own disco light ball to hang around her neck as a birthday present!
