A phonebox outside the British Museum, London, January 2023


Now over to all of you. Do come and join us in our Saturday six-word musings.
I’ll admit that many of us openly break the numeric rule and share far more words (all excellent of course!) so the key rule is to have a title of six words – and then create around that the post that you desire! Perhaps in bunches of 6 words if you’re feeling inspired.
To join the challenge, please put a link in your post to the URL of this post. Then come back here and leave us a comment. If you have any problems with linking, just put your own URL into the comment. And do feel free to socialise digitally – tweet, instagram, flickr, etc. with the hashtags #SixWordSaturday and #6WS.

That’s a super cool to share art and use the phone boxes!

That’s a good bit of re-purposing there. We have a few phone box libraries in some of the Cotswold villages I pass through when out hiking – book exchanges rather than libraries. I’ve also seen quite a few with defibrillators and ATM machines also.

Great discovery ! I do not remember seeing this phone box in summer 2019, must have overlooked it. The box as such in front of the museum must be good photo motif.

I don’t know when it was converted but I suspect it was quite recent.

I have photos of that phone box from our trip in November – but it had a fox and a squirrel in it then!

What a fun find and what are the odds that you’d have a red phone booth today and I had one on Thursday? 🙂 Evidently quite high. Here’s mine for the day but don’t eat these greens. They’re only good for the soul.

It’s so fitting for the location!
In Germany, phone boxes used to be yellow. Then grey and magenta. And now we used them differently: https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2023/02/04/who-still-needs-a-phone-box/

We have quite a few uses for them now but this was the first art gallery I had seen.

Oh I say. Book-exchanges I’m used to, but an art gallery? I’ll have to drop by sometime.

I’ve seen once a mini bib where you can take (or leave) book, but never a phone booth like this. Very original one, thanks for sharing 🙂

Yes I was very pleased. Just need to get back to see inside. It had closed when I got there.

Do you have to book? I’d say there would be a limit to the numbers inside 😂 I hope there’s something in there about the Guinness Book of Records for most number of people inside a phonebox
