WHO remembers throwing some shapes and burning the midnight oil on the window podium at this Blackburn nightspot?
This picture, posted on the Blackburn Nightlife Facebook page stirred happy memories for people online.
The snap shows the 'window podium' at Bar Life on Northgate.
What are your memories of the late night bar?
The building was put up for sale in 2009 as town centre landlords struggled with a decline in the nighttime economy.
It was put on the market for just under £500,000.
Pub bosses told the LT at the time that the town centre was struggling to attract drinkers, especially as people were looking to hold onto their cash in the recession.
Ronnie Brown, who was running North Bar in Town Hall Street said times were tough.
He said: “Things are a lot quieter than normal and trade is down. My view is that people are frightened of spending their money because they are losing their jobs right, left and centre.”
