Seen loitering in the telephone booth …

A short while ago, this suspicious looking character was seen lurking in the telephone booth at Great Shelford.

A closer look revealed a shady character in old fashioned attire with a dodgy moustache. He appeared to be trying to make an urgent call.

It turns out that Great Shelford Parish Council has purchased their red telephone booth from BT and has found a novel use for it.  School children are placing interesting characters in the phone booth, then writing about who they are and what they might be discussing on their call. In this instance, Guy Fawkes was taking advantage of modern technology – presumably to plot with his co-conspirators.

Many thanks to Amanda Chamberlain for letting us share her photos.

If anyone else has interesting local photos to share, do please let us have them. We’d love to share them here.
