This week’s challenge.
Younger bloggers may need to contact me to find out what these are.
Old Bailey, London.
Share a photo of what “relic” means to you — it could be your still-running 1979 Honda Accord Hatchback, an historic building in your town, or an old, rusted farm implement poking up through the long grass in a field.

Yes you’re right these ARE relics. sad to think. I hope they never get rid of them, they are something special in London. I have many photos of the red phone booths, not as nice as yours though! Love them.

Yep saw them in November last year. I had visions of journalists shouting ‘stop the presses’ and small villains calling for Mr Rumpole.

Funnily enough, I did see a Doctor about half an hour later. Paul McGann was standing talking outside the National Portrait Gallery. I heard the voice first. There’s a mini Tardis outside Liverpool St Station. https://ambitiousdrifter.wordpress.com/2013/08/04/anachronism/
