Telephones
Oct 31st, 2011 | By grandad | Category: Memories/ExperiencesOnly the wealthy had telephones at home. The rest of us had to walk to the nearest public phone box. You had to put your money in and then dial the number you wanted. If it was answered you pressed button A and you were connected – but when the money ran out you were cut of – in the middle of the conversation. If the phone wasn’t answered you pressed button B and got your money back.
