This old telephone has twin bells which ring on receipt of a call. It still rings in my lounge but I cannot make calls with it. Also known as the Skeleton 'phone, this was one of the first public telephones sold in the UK and dates around the 1890s.
During early life I was known as Fido - so I use that as my internet identity where I can. I am a retired Local Government man who now enjoys a variety of interests. In these blogs I hope to share some of them with anyone with a shared sense of humour who may come across them. But they are mainly for my own interest as a reminder of some of the things I have done in my retirement.
This is one of them.
