House(s) used for Britin exterior and interior?
Hey, everyone! It was great seeing so many familiar names on the Members list. As a lot of you know, I'm brand-new to IJ and the QAF fandom.

I'm thrilled to see this community, because I'm rabidly obsessed with ~~Justin's ass~~behind-the-scenes elements of TV shows and films.

I found the George Shickle estate here: http://www.parkwoodestate.com/html/auto.html?page_id=2&schild_id=32

Does anyone know where the exterior and interior of Britin was shot?

Although I'm not posting pics, here is some of her commentary about Woody's. I thought you might enjoy it.

(She had pics placed throughout this commentary)
Ahh, Woody's. I tried to take several pics of the inside because some areas of the bar (which is huge by the way. I think it had 4 main rooms, each with their own bars)..back to the story, some parts of the bar were so familiar it was creepy. I didn't get to take a pic of the main bar (the one that would be familiar to everyone) because during the day that is the busiest bar and I felt odd taking pics of total strangers.
I can't remember if I posted this one, so here it is just in case. The outside of Woody's

The only bad part is it is hard to convey how "real" it was because the flash on the camera always seemed to change the atmosphere. But the stairs are dark just like they are in the show. The "no dicks allowed in this area" sign was posted on the women's restroom door, but I think it is more for looks than anything else because I never used the bathroom there when a man wasn't in one of the stalls next to me. I tried to go into the men's restroom, but all they had were urinals and I just have no idea how to work those. *grin*

The beer cooler with all the men at the top is a staple at each bar. The pic with the blue chairs didn't remind me of the show in any way, but I was facinated with these smoking pods/rooms that could be found just about everywhere so I had to take a pic.

This is a pic of the owner of Woody's and me. Do not ask me his name because I can not remember, but I will ask one of the friends I made there when I talk to them. He was very nice and bought me a pitcher of beer. I think he was a little freaked out to walk into his bar and have like 20 women sitting there drinking like a bunch of fish! lol

	Thank you so much for this "up close and personal" visit to Woody's! Your friend is a good writer. I felt like I was there. (Reply to this) (Parent)
