A fab use for an old phone box

Tweet

While we were in Birmingham city centre some time ago I noticed a guy had taken over a couple of the old red phone boxes that are dotted around the city - he'd turned them into a kind of takeaway coffee kiosk which looked fantastic. So many of these old phone boxes have been taken away to make room for plastic-glass modern constructions (or more likely taken away and not replaced with a phone box at all!) - there's quite a following on social media about 'red phone boxes' and while you see a lot that have been put in people's front gardens, there aren't all that many that are being used for other actual purposes now everyone has a mobile and people don't need phone boxes any more. I know a lady through another website who has a red phone box in her village that has been turned into a book swap shop, I really love that idea! Have you seen any old fashioned red phone boxes around? And any that are doing more than just sitting around looking 'quaint'?
