Yes, the image doesn't appeal all that much but I do get the humour. Perhaps that sort of fun requires extra for the lead!

well, i guess she has let those flowers bloom. the funny part to me is the dog sign. what type of massage parlor has a dog roaming around in it.

The grungy frame is a delight Dave ... er well spotted.
On a second point ... Er umm ... Is it place for all the old age pensioners to go and have a cup of tea and a chat round the stove? ... Fantastic community spirit in Blackpool it seems!
Very PC with the health and safety warning as well.
BTW ...nice flowers . ;-) richard

David, was this taken on Central Drive? If so I think it used to be my step brothers parents old chippy.

Dave I just love the irony this image conjures up and that dog sign could mean one of two things... and who would wants a massage from a dog ;-) (a fit young Thai girl maybe)
As for the comment by cy, I formed the impression he has been to quite a few of these establishments lol!

Great composition and colour, and the message in the bottom rihgt corner is quite funny!
I'm not too sure that this visual joke will work for everyone, but it made me smile :-)
