Red Telephone Boxes.
There aren’t many of these around but whenever I spot them I can’t understand why BT decided to replace them with horrible grey and beige efforts.
The red ones are mostly in quaint village locations and always look cheerful and homely. In the days when we didn’t have mobiles you can imagine how welcome a sight they were. Travellers whose car had broken down, walking through dark lanes, a little elderly lady without a phone, having her weekly chat with her sister, a child with friends, giggling as they ask if they can stay to tea.
Fortunately the post office have retained red post boxes. Long may they continue.
The only thing I can’t understand is why they chose to make dog poo bins the same colour
