We spent the weekend in Copenhagen. There were very few phone boxes around which surprised me a little. Lots of post boxes and fire hydrants though.
While we were in Christiania I accidently took a photo of a urinal, thinking it was some kind of art installation. Seeing as I have another in the blog somewhere I thought I’d include it.
Some more from the USA, but this time going back even longer to when I was using film. Note the last one, starring Neil Van Vuuren, and with Gillian Anderson on the side of the box!

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 :-)”

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…

Here are a couple from Kent in the UK:

This phone is by the park where the Oktoberfest is held.

This next one is actually a town that was once in Germany. We visited with a friend when there was a Christmas market on.

I knew this blog would have to be dragged into the new millennium at some point. Today is the day. We took Couscous out for a walk at Allhallows, on the Thames just up from Gravesend. Instead of a ‘Phone’ box there was an ‘Internet’ box.
