A couple of weekends ago saw a march in London, in support of the Palestinian cause. These photos were sent in by Shiraz Chanawala, who attended the march. I’ve included many of his photos are they are too good not to share. Thank-you Shiraz.
I came across an article in an edition of the ‘BT Today’ magazine, dated August 1991. Here, children (very cool kids from their fashion sense) are being taught how to be good citizens by using the phone to call the police when they come across trouble.
Sir Scott designed the red phone box and while in Scotland I came across anther of his designs – a church tower in Oban, seen below.
Lots of phone boxes still around in Scotland. Here are some from Mull and Skye.
I’ve been playing Candy Crush for probably over a decade and now have found another game to become a little obsessed over – Ghost Detective (Netflix). Here are some screenshots featuring a phone box – hidden or not.
Update October 2026: I hadn’t played the game for a bit and when I tried logging on a couple of weeks ago it was gone! I don’t really do phone games as I can’t stand the constant attempts to get you to buy add ons etc and the need to click through a number of screens to get to play the game itself. This one didn’t do that so finding a replacement might be a drag. Damn you Netflix.
Ahead of myself
I recently came across an image on FB and then, just now, as I was bringing an old suitcase downstairs, I realised I had placed this same image front and centre on a hatbox that I had covered with postcards (c.1992):
I think I might have done this c. 1992, meaning I was getting ahead of myself. I didn’t start photographing phoneboxes until c. 1997.
