Cotswolds

Here’s a recent one from our little jaunt to the Cotswolds. This was opposite our B&B in Crudwell.

San Francisco

My first reader’s contribution. Thanks Ian.

“Here is my picture of a San Francisco phone booth! While walking by I found it strangely compelling – with it’s shiny case and slot for quarters, so I took a pic. I had just seen the movie “Bullitt”, with Steve McQueen, where the hero makes many phone calls in exactly this type of phone booth…This particular phone was located in the Serramonte Shopping Mall, Daly City, South San Francisco on 28th Dec 2010. I was out shopping for lego :-)”

Morocco

I tried to find one from the remaining collection that has snow in it, to go with the current feel outside. No luck. Here are a couple to give me warm thoughts (much needed right now) instead:

We recently visited the IoW where there is a funky model village in the town of Godshill. Of corse it has it’s own communications…

Japan

My husband has been in Tokyo again for business and has sent me a few shots for the blog. The first is at Enoshima, then Gora, Hase and Maronouchi:

Tripoli

We visited Libya on a short tour to see the archaeological sites. I couldn’t find any phone boxes but they do have phone shops.
