nostalgia is a wonderful thing. Its actually not a wonderful thing, its a weird human condition that seems to have been converted into a psy-op by shady facebook accounts that have gone from posting 'who remembers white dog-shit and spangles' into AI generated pictures of london in various guises.
Yes, i suppose i am saying 'nostalgia is not what it once was' go figure.
But anyway. Phone boxes were shit. Often literally. Depending on where you were, they often stank of human waste of one form or another, and even in a time before fear of contagion, you were still reticent to hold that manky ear piece too close to your ear. The ones in london were plastered in pornography from the local people trafficers.
A phone box was somewhere that you went as a last resort. Or, judging by the smell in most of them, if you needed a piss.
