Smoking area T1 airside at MAN

Okay so obvious advantages if you smoke, and very much so for myself being stuck their alot when working and for when I go away to calm my nerves!

But the reason I'm posting is because if you don't smoke but can stand some second hand smoke it's a good place to view planes, mainly over at T2, meaning you can usually see the Virgin flights depending on the time of day. Not very good for pictures but if like I said you just want to have a look it's a very good place to do so.
Located through a maze of corridors near the upstairs restaurants.

good to know if only I flew out of MAN I wish the roof garden at lhr was still smoking. Does anyone still go up there for a cheeky one? These days if I need it that bad I re-land!

There is also a smoking area airside in T2 at MAN - downstairs in the hell-hole that is Gate 300. I'm not a smoker, but the smoking area basically looked like a caged-in covered patio.
