Such nostalgia. I saw many of these iconic British red phone booths on my recent trip. Abandoned. Derelict. But a few... had been turned into little libraries, or at least I think they were... it could just be imagination! Thank you Carol!
I liked those old photo boxes, especially the UK ones... having a mobile phone is handy but a bit of the 'comfort' and mysic of standing in a phonebooth,calling a loved one, is gone...
This lovely picture serves as a perfect metaphor for your wise and beautifully phrased words. I can accept that things change , I just wish it wouldn’t happen so fast.
all those years in my youth-working on the Queen Elizabeth-the QEII! so many phone calls home across the pond to family. so many lovely adventures all around the world. thank you carol. i love that these private shelters of connection are passion red!

Sadly, even the iconic red telephone boxes in London are going, going, and almost gone...
