    How long before we see sunny #Manchester & #Sunderland with #postboxes that failed to charge?

    Yet another service discriminating against people without a #smartphone.

    My phone overheated recently. It wasn't charging, it wasn't in use streaming etc. It just got red hot. I don't do contracts so now I'm phone-less. The phone wasn't cheap.

    To think we used to buy #landline phones that would last us 20 plus years without needing replacement or constant upgrades.

    Given Elisabeth II had been Queen of the UK for so long, many #postboxes will have her initials. Today I found one from her grandfather George V (with the initials GR) in #Airdrie, #Scotland.
    On Malta last week I found one from during her dad’s reign (and when #Malta was obviously still part of the Empire), George VI. 📮
