In the past a public telephone was an important
point of communication – many of us can
remember queuing up outside such a telephone box and being frustrated by the
person on the phone talking for hours,
perhaps to their girl or boyfriend, oblivious to those waiting outside.
We would like it to continue using “our”
telephone box as a point of contact between us –whether we meet there or not –
and to do this take our unwanted books, trinkets and surplus plants there where
they can be collected and appreciated by another parishioner.
To
celebrate this new Parish facility we are holding a “Grand Opening” on Saturday
27th June at 2.00 pm. This year’s Parish Queen has kindly
agreed to open the Exchange for us.
Please come and enjoy some tea and cake to celebrate
this little bit of Parish History with us.
