I got another GPO dialphone today, i got 10 of them which is 10 more than the number of landlines i have

This is a 746 in Concorde Blue, though has slightly aged* to make it a bit more green

* well it is older than me, i've slightly aged too

I had something delivered by Evri today, the guy asked me if i went to Hodge Hill as he recognised me from when he also took the bus to school.

This was 40 years ago btw, guy had a good memory and i obviously haven't changed much!
