Bring them all back and get rid of the new ones...... the kids love the new ones, they have lots of glass in them. The little gremlins try to beat up the cash box on the newer phones and when they figure ther arn't getting very far they throw a brick at the glass. They must have cost British Telecom a fortune over the years.</p> <p>Bring the old ones back, like the Doctor Who ones, they are cool and keep with good old British Tradition. Those little vandals didn't care too much for them either!</p> Those old telephone boxes rocked !

Bring the old ones back, like the Doctor Who ones, they are cool and keep with good old British Tradition. Those little vandals didn’t care too much for them either!
