It wasn’t too long ago that I used a telephone booth. There was one in the hospital where I worked from 1996-2000. Whenever I stepped into the small private compartment and shut the folding door I felt safe. At ease to speak without being overheard and able to see people passing unaware of my presence. And when i see movies with a telephone booth, rotary dials and answering machines, it reminds me that there once was a slower pace to our daily living. I’m no dinosaur. I no longer have a landline, only a smart phone, I use PhotoShop, social media, texting, Facetime, and texting.
But every once in a while I wish I could find a telephone booth, sit on the wooden seat, close the door, and slip into a past era.

We have 2 landlines, 2 cell phones, one computer and 2 i-pads. And we are 68 and 73 years young. My husband worked for the phone company for 40 years so we get free landlines forever. And yes it is in use a lot as most if my friends still call that number and my 95 year old Mother could never figure out a cell phone so she calls the landline. I feel safer having it in the house. But we use the cellphone (I don’t give out my cell number very readily) and the ipads are in use a lot. We are techies but we love the past also!
As for telephone booths – ah…the memories!
I agree! I was in London in 2012 saw a phonebooth, got in, took a seat, took the phone off the hook but had no one to call.
