More Phone Box Fun

Jeff Zycinski | 15:04 UK time, Sunday, 10 December 2006

Regular diary readers - both of us - will recall my encounter with a phone box at Perth train station a few weeks ago. There was a sign on the door suggesting it was to be the venue for a birthday party on the 2nd of December.

Sadly we all missed that date and I've no idea whether or not the party went ahead or not, but at least the story was covered in the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ's in-house newspaper Ariel. They republished the photo-montage created by Shona Ferguson with me in a Superman costume.

Now I've received this photograph from Tracy Stevenson. She tells me she snapped it from the safety of her car on Dundee's Riverside.

"I very very quickly took the photo, without even getting out my car for fear of looking dodgy and someone asking me what I was doing."

I know this kind of fear. Last week in London I took a wrong turn out of Victoria Station and found myself passing Buckingham Palace. Uniformed police officers were advising tourists to keep their wallets and purses safe from pickpockets. I decided to take a few snaps of the scene and then I noticed those same police officers looking at me in a funny way. Had I lingered for a minute more I'm sure I'd now be on a plane back to Poland.
