I've never been to the UK. Is this real? No more red phone booths???

[-] DrCake@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Some still survive but mostly just for tourists to take a picture next to. Hardly any of those left, even the “modern” ones, actually have a working phone.

I'm just sad I won't get the authentic experience of pissing in one anymore.

And cigarette butts, don't forget them.
