I think there is also a scottish crown but I’m not worried who’s crown so long as it’s a K6

This was moved by pallet truck across a lawn through a gate (had to take a pillar down for access) up his drive too narrow for even a car before being lifted onto the truck

Don't get me started...... Locally the non local blow ins have saved many with there restoration being funded by your taxes via the parish .... The result is that they wind up paying ted to wire brush and hammerite the f****ng things rather than lift them out and send them to be sandblasted and primed properly.

I would like one. There was one in an auction but i cant remember where it was, wherever and whenever you went to use one they always reaked of piss and 50% of them would be out of order too. When i was working on the railways i was on a night shift that i finished early on which was about 2am I didnt have my car so I whent to call my brother and had no change so i reversed the charges on him but promptly got the number wrong and woke a total stranger up! He was not happy!!

Yeah making sure you had enough change or reverse the charges 😆
I worked on a fishing trawler off far North Queensland when I was 18, at sea for 4 months. We went to port for a night because our generator broke and I used a phone box to make a reverse charge call home to the uk. My folks were really pleased to hear from me but less impressed with the £100 phone bill 😂
