lifting a big red phone box

We are a little more clear on what the phone box is going to be used for. Apparently it's going to be used as a phone box. An amazing revelation. More specifically, it'll be for private calls, so no one else can hear you say "I love you too" at the end of a conversation.

We lifted it inside yesterday. Seeing as it's made from cast iron and weights three quarters of a ton, this was quite tricky. Of course, this didn't stop our strong men from standing around it for a while and pontificating on the finer points of phone box lifting. There was a lot of standing around:


"Oh, I wouldn't do it that way if I were you"

And then some lifting:


"Lift with your knees"

And then some more standing around:


"I'm going to speak to the union about this."

Well done lads.

If anyone knows any proper big men with proper big lifting equipment, drop us a line. We've still got a bit of phone box moving to do.

Did you know there is one just standing in the middle of nowhere in one of the industrial sections of Amsterdam? A British telephone box? It's very surreal.
